Mandatory psychological assessments for injectable cosmetic treatments

Open for signatures 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Injectable cosmetic treatments can affect mental wellbeing. We believe a mandatory assessment before a procedure would protect vulnerable patients and improve safety standards.
Injectable cosmetic treatments can have psychological as well as physical effects. Some people seeking these treatments may be vulnerable due to body image concerns or mental health issues. We believe a mandatory psychological assessment could help identify patients who may be at risk, ensure informed consent, protect vulnerable individuals, and improve overall safety standards within the cosmetic industry.
