The demand for micro-plastic surgery is increasing, and the "face value economy" has spawned a large number of unqualified small workshop-style medical beauty institutions. Behind the vigorous development of the industry, some problems need to be solved urgently.
The court's investigation report lists four chaos phenomena in the medical and beauty industry market: unqualified medical and beauty institutions, low quality of employees, prevalence of false advertisements, and nonstandard medical and beauty consumables.
According to the White Paper on 20 17 Medical and Beauty Industry recently released by relevant institutions, the number of medical and beauty consumers in China increased by 42% in 20 17 compared with that in 20 16, much higher than the global growth rate of 7%, and China became the fastest growing country in the world.
This speed has also brought opportunities and challenges to practitioners in the medical and beauty industry. Doctors have limited resources and the training speed can't keep up with the demand. The "black market" without a medical license and the "black doctors" who have been trained for five days are rampant.
Different from traditional beauty, medical beauty has certain risks because of its invasive and traumatic characteristics. Some informal clinics, beauty salons and nail salons that do not meet the basic standards of medical institutions have no fear of providing medical beauty services. Most of these institutions are not approved, the hardware conditions are poor, the equipment is reused many times, and the process is not rigorous, which easily leads to infectious diseases and cross-infection.
Extended Information The scale of China's medical and beauty industry has maintained rapid growth, with the growth rate exceeding 40% and the scale far exceeding 100 billion. In this context, medical beauty institutions have developed rapidly and are in a state of "barbaric growth". You can start a business by renting a store, and your qualifications have become a cloud. Driven by profiteering, illegal propaganda, illegal medical practice and other industries are widespread, and they are the hardest hit areas that infringe on consumers' rights and interests.
The rapidly developing but immature medical and beauty industry will always produce some "big news" every once in a while. It is no stranger to news such as death from plastic surgery failure and appointment for doctor training within three to five days, not to mention the illegal events like "blood washing" beauty, which deceive people with high-tech and new technology gimmicks.
On the one hand, medical beauty is immature in China, and operators' self-discipline and consumers' awareness of self-protection are insufficient, but fundamentally, it is caused by insufficient supervision by the competent authorities, unclear punishment policies and limited execution.
Speaking of it, the relevant government departments have not ignored the chaos in the medical and beauty industry, nor have they made great efforts to rectify it. Looking through history, there are many documents and actions aimed at the medical and beauty industry. In 20 17 and 20 18, seven departments, including the National Health and Family Planning Commission, launched a special campaign to crack down on illegal medical beauty and curb the chaos in the medical beauty market.
