The government of the New South Wales will review the rules for beauty clinics after Jean Huang’s death.
This woman who is 35 year olds and owns the Medi Beauty Clinic in Chippendale, died of cardiac arrest after she underwent a procedure done by Chinese tourist Shao. She was administered alleged breast fillers and died 2 days after cardiac arrest. Shao was not registered although her solicitor told that she graduated from a Chinese medical university and practiced in Britain and Chinese as a dermatology expert. Shao has been charged as she caused reckless bodily harm and used poison to endanger others’ life.
David Scott, the president of a college of Anaesthetists, requested minimum standards for private clinics and practices. According to a study, risks related to the administration of sedative drugs and anaesthetic are significant. While the government has considered regulations associated with private health facilities, some recent events emphasize the importance for having minimum standards. And, surgery procedures must be managed by a qualified medical practitioner.
Generally, beauty therapy facilities that aim at doing beauty therapies and do not perform any surgical procedures are not needed being registered. However, there is a big issue with beauty therapy facilities in performing procedures. The spokeswoman of The NSW Health said that the state’s health minister had requested an urgent investigation into this problem, which will include the investigation of health service practitioners involved.
