Tighter restrictions on high-risk cosmetic procedures such as liquid Brazilian butt lifts (BBLs) are needed immediately, a cross-party group of MPs in the UK have said.
The Women and Equalities Committee said only doctors should be allowed to carry out these treatments because of the risks involved.
That would act as a de facto ban as doctors would only perform them in the most essential cases, the MPs said.
The UK government has proposed a similar measure, but has yet to confirm when the restrictions will come into place. Currently there is no regulation over who can provide procedures that do not involve incisions.
