Cosmetic procedures: the big questions

CCI’s Rosalind Gill was at the launch of the Nuffield Council on Bioethics’s new report on cosmetic procedures last week. The culmination of several years work it ranges over topics as diverse as the grade of silicon used in implants to the increasing pressures on people to undertake a variety of surgical and non-surgical procedures, and will inform policy for years to come  http://nuffieldbioethics.org.uk

Ros has been involved in the report in three main ways: she gave evidence at one of the expert seminars organized by the Nuffield; and her work on beauty apps was also taken as an expert submission and has informed the report; finally she was an expert reviewer for the full report earlier this year. Media coverage has focussed on Ros’s research with Ana Elias about cosmetic surgery try-out apps- and by coincidence the paper was published the very same day
