According to Senator Tracy, "By definition, cosmetic procedures and treatments are elective, invasive, and require the direct involvement of a medical doctor to assess the need for them, identify any contraindications for the treatment, identify the appropriate medical setting in which the treatment should be performed, and be available for follow-up if there are any complications. Physicians who are employed or contracted by others to either perform these procedures or supervise those who do them can be subjected to undue financial pressure to perform or permit procedures to be performed that may not be medically appropriate."
