New Zealand: register of plastic-surgery and aesthetic-medicine clinics, checked against official registers
For every clinic we check who the responsible physician is, whether the official registers confirm the specialist certification and licence, whether the facility and the legal entity can be traced, whether the clinic publishes its own identifiers, and whether its advertising stays honest. We do not assess treatment outcomes, skill or complications, and nothing here is medical advice.

What this register does not do
- We do not measure treatment outcomes, surgical skill or complication rates.
- We do not see clinics without a public web presence.
- Register classes this country does not publish are named as unavailable; we never simulate a register.
- We take no money from clinics, we do not book, and we do not refer.
- Fame, review volume, domain age and social-media following are not scored anywhere.
