High Street retailer Superdrug is to introduce tougher mental health checks before dishing out lunchtime cosmetic procedures after receiving criticism on its lackadaisical approach to mental health disorders.
According to NHS sources, after Superdrug started offering Botox and dermal fillers last year, the health service was left to pick up the pieces for many mental health fallouts following procedures.
The NHS is concerned that pressures on young people’s mental health are so tough, that allowing those who are mentally unwell easy access to a procedure that will compound their illness rather than help it, is just irresponsible.
Superdrug have responded saying they are fully committed to the issue.
