| plastic exam board: The Regulation of Cosmetic Procedures Melanie Latham, Jean McHale, 2020-04-30 This book examines the legal, ethical and regulatory debates surrounding the rise of the cosmetic procedures industry. In the past, cosmetic procedures were often seen as limited to a small number of wealthy older women. Today, such procedures have gone mainstream, partly facilitated by the rise of ‘non-invasive’ techniques, such as the use of Botox and Dermal Fillers. While still a business dominated by the female consumer, there is also an increasing number of males undertaking cosmetic procedures as social expectations around appearance and ageing are challenged. At the same time, the rapid expansion of this business and the incoherent, diverse approach to its regulation have given rise to concern. It has been seen as a ‘Wild West’. If cosmetic procedures go wrong, such procedures give rise to real risks of harm. This book examines the historical backdrop, current practice and risks associated with cosmetic procedures. It discusses the ethical and regulatory challenges for this area. It also examines the current legal frameworks concerning people, practitioners and products in the UK. The book also draws lessons from regulatory approaches in other jurisdictions with particular reference to the United States, Brazil and France. It then sets out a legal and regulatory framework that might better protect and empower the cosmetic consumer, now and in the future. The book is likely to be of particular interest to those working in the areas of health and medical law, socio-legal studies and political science. |
| plastic exam board: Body Contouring Surgery After Weight Loss Jeffrey L. Sebastian, Joseph F. Capella, J. Peter Rubin, 2016-05-30 Are you among the tens of thousands of people who have lost a dramatic amount of weight? If so, congratulations! You did it! Those years of struggling and failed diets are behind you. Perhaps you did it through weight loss surgery. Or, perhaps it was through diet and exercise. Either way, you have created a new body and a new life for yourself. But, now that the weight is gone, are you left with extra skin? If so, it likely causes you embarrassment and perhaps hygiene problems as well. Fortunately, body contouring surgery can help restore a more natural look to your body. The authors of this book, respected plastic surgeons, have performed hundreds of body contouring procedures on weight loss patients, and they understand your concerns as you explore having reconstructive surgery. Among the questions they answer are: &• How soon after surgery can I have excess skin be removed? &• Which surgery should I have first? &• How many surgeries can I have at one time? &• Should I have a tummy tuck or a body lift? &• Will I have much pain after contouring surgery? &• Can my breasts be restored to normal? &• Where will scars from the surgery be visible? &• When can I return to work and resume physical activity? &• What about fees? Will insurance pay? The book contains 136 color illustrations and photos, including dozens of before & after photos of surgery patients, as well as an appendix, resource section, glossary, and index. |
