I am contacting you with a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. My request relates to the number of complaints about aesthetic procedures in your local authority area.

Definition of terms:
• We are defining 'aesthetic procedures' as non-surgical, cosmetic treatments. For example: filler injections, liquid Brazilian butt lifts, lipo reduction, liposuction, Botox and non-surgical/filler breast implants. This is not an exhaustive list – but please disregard complaints involving tattoos, piercings, hair treatments and massages.
• We are defining 'complaints' as customers of the business reporting negative experiences about their treatments.
ITV News would like to request the following information:
