Illegal Beauty Procedures Surge: Health Commission Warns Public
10 Feb
Summary
- Aesthetic clinics, nail salons banned from non-surgical cosmetic procedures.
- Unlicensed providers risk injury, disability due to fast-track training.
- Public urged to report illegal beauty services to authorities.
Non-surgical cosmetic procedures, including laser treatments and injections, are becoming increasingly popular. However, the National Health Commission is strongly cautioning the public against receiving these services at establishments like aesthetic clinics, nail salons, and hair salons. These businesses are strictly prohibited from offering such medical treatments.
The commission emphasized that these procedures are medical in nature and require qualified medical institutions and licensed professionals. Concerns have been raised about unscrupulous merchants exploiting the demand for cosmetic enhancements, leading to unsafe practices and inadequate training. This has resulted in instances of injury and disability.
Individuals are encouraged to report any suspected illegal cosmetic procedures to local health authorities or the 12345 government service hotline. Participation in unauthorized training courses for cosmetic procedures can lead to legal issues, including unlicensed medical practice and the distribution of fake certificates.
