Abstract：
UNLABELLED:Aesthetic surgery is a rapidly expanding industry and patient safety is a fundamental issue. The need for regulation has been outlined by the Professional Standards for Cosmetic Practice Report, published by the Royal College of Surgeons in January 2013 which highlighted standards of patient care. The aim of this study was to review institutional compliance with these standards. A retrospective chart review of 40 consecutive patients who underwent either bilateral breast augmentation or bilateral breast reduction between November 2012 and November 2013 within our unit was performed. Compliance with standards relating to practice management, patient consultation, patient communication and record-keeping was examined. While details of past medical history were recorded in most cases, few consultations referred to psychiatric history and cosmetic surgical history specifically. Perioperative documentation and compliance with surgical safety processes were excellent. As a self-regulating profession, it is important that plastic surgeons take the lead in auditing their practice against such published standards. We urge all professionals who carry out cosmetic procedures to regularly review their practice, thereby promoting accountability and maintaining the trust of the general public in the aesthetic surgery industry. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE V:This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
