Hey angels happy Sunday! I know we are giggling through this video but on a serious note this is a hugeee issue. NOBODY should be injecting anyone without proper education. People can end up in the hospital and have permanent damage. Please check credentials and support locations like Mysa Medical & Wellness Spa who are equipped to provide a service like this! Stay safe out there ya'll. I want everyone to practice this service safely and receive this service safely! While I understand the appeal of hylaraun pens. There are major issues that can happen with this and your safest bet is to go to a licensed injector! Remember all statements are my own opinions. Update: *I have a deep dive/follow up video about this going live May 31st 2024 5:30pm CST! It’s a juicy one so stay tuned!*
I reported her to the Texas State Board for Cosmetology, HPD, Tik Tok(lost cause), IG, Fb and anywhere else I could think of. Not in my City and state. So over these fake “specialists” or “Technicians”…same thing with the Veneers. So done with this Bull💩 are they not realizing that they are hurting ppl?? All this for some quick money 💴. Shame on you and not if I can help it.
I’m a chemist at the company that makes Juvederm, Botox, and other injectables (Allergan/AbbVie) I will be reporting her to our company. The CDC had to recently release warnings because people have gotten Botox poisoning from fake injectors. This is a HUGE issue.
Many hospitals have forms for people who don't have insurance and it's for free care. If you are approved, they may even cover you for a year, or however long your hospital extends it for. And you'll just have to reapply. And if you make too much they'll do a slide and scale based on your income. And find out if you can use it at the hospital pharmacy!!! Every hospital has a pharmacy, just find out if they fill prescriptions for outpatient care (ER, or other areas of the hospital where you're treated and leave & don't stay over). My hospitals pharmacy will fill any script from any of their departments, even walk ins (&out, like ER) & you just give them your free care card or paperwork. Always advocate for yourself.... A hospital can not turn you away for lack of insurance or ability to pay so never skip not caring for yourself or your family members bc of no insurance! There is so much out there for people who can't afford health insurance! ❤
Hyaluron pens were originally made for insulin delivery for diabetic patients who are terrified of needles. Insulin is a very small molecule and can be pushed into the tissue with that pen; however, hyaluronic acid filler molecules are HUGE and cannot be pushed through the skin with these pens. It leaves substantial trauma, lumps, modules and significant swelling. Along with scar tissue and granulomas which can leave lips permanently deformed.. I have seen many patients who come to me after they've had this done and there is little to nothing I can do for them aside from referring them to a plastic surgeon for surgical correction...DNP injector here❤
Holy shit, you’re right when you said hyaluronic acid is HUGE. Insulin has 788 atoms a molecule while hyaluronic acid has a whopping 329,000,000 atoms a molecule!
For f*cks sake, why can't people just stick to external cosmetic stuff like lash, nails, hair, etc. Why do they have to overstep into a field where there's almost no room for error aka fields that can kill people with the smallest mistake.
Fr like at least lip liner or gloss plumpers are natural looking and no risk. Lip injections are always noticeable and I think they make people look silly like they just got stung by a bee
7:10 Imagine trying to warn people about an unlincensed scammer injecting chemicals into unaware customers' lips, and tiktok shutting you down due to their guidelines saying "not cool" while they allow the same scammer to use their platform to promote their business.
The same thing happens all the time on youtube, I've noticed particularly with animal abuse. People will do absolutely awful shit and anyone who calls them out gets shut down for "bullying and harassment". Yikes.
And the CEO is everywhere talking about our freedom of speech being taken away with this TT ban, SIR! YOU are censoring us! The amount of times that I had a comment removed for "violating guidelines " - since when is my opinion a "violation "?
@@mmmbepis8643I’ve also seen many times where animal abuse content is able to stay up despite getting flagged, but then when someone makes a response video, the response video gets flagged as animal abuse and is removed.
@@IsabellaLanterI also don't understand how this stuff gets taken down relatively fast on tik tok. they never take down stuff that needs to be. classic internet I suppose. its good to make people aware, facial and dental health is important B)
That hyaluronic pen is nasty work. Some people use it to get around the license required for injections. The results are so uncontrollable. These people deserve jail time honestly!

right, i feel like thats the first thing you learn in anything that requires you to wear gloves, piercing, medicine damn even hairdressing! YOU CHANGE YOUR GLOVES IF U TOUCH SOMETHING
@@GogiRegion No, it absolutely *is* expected of food service workers to change their gloves after touching raw meat; separate cutting boards, specific ratios of specific cleaners allowed to be used in an environment that handles and/or produces food. Now, does everyone follow that?...
@@NeonGalaxy666 this is why so many professional kitchens don't recommend gloves. You're a lot more likely to wash your hands regularly, which is a lot safer than constantly replacing gloves.
This pisses me off so bad bc I’m busting my ass in nursing school to be able to do injectables and then there’s these people on the internet taking a 2 hour course and saying they’re qualified!!! Ridiculous!!!
that sounds so frustrating. just know you’re going to be protecting people from horrible medical issues down the line by doing it the right way. once these horrible injections go wrong, people are gonna be running to licensed professionals like you to fix it.
Same!! As a nursing student l cant imagine being so nonchalant about just injecting random shit into people with no medical knowledge just to make money
the internet is becoming an increasingly more wild place - or has this stuff always existed and we're all getting more exposed to it due to internet being more accessible?
I think so much more is getting exposed now! Thankfully people are calling out bs more so we can bring awareness. But there will always be a new creative scam sadly
Definitely both. The Internet has made things so much more accessible for a much larger audience.. If you wanted to scam someone back in 1999, you had to show up at their house, call them, etc and there's only so many hours in a day. Now, you can scam a million people a week if you have the audience.
People have been injecting products they shouldn't be into unsuspecting victims for years. I remember years ago a woman who was injecting like home depot silicone into people which goes without saying is incredibly dangerous.
I just know these "courses" don't cover a thing regarding bloodborn pathogens. They not only don't care about patient safety but also the "trainee" safety either. 🤬
I just know these "courses" don't cover a thing regarding bloodborn pathogens. They not only don't care about patient safety but also the "trainee" safety either. 😡
Four or so years ago, three women got HIV from contaminated equipment after having "vampire facials" (microneedling) in New Mexico. The average spa tech has less bloodborne pathogen training than a tattoo artist, much less a nurse!
if she goes to the police about this she can get what is called 'victims compensation fund', and medical bills related to this issue will be completely covered, as well as therapy, money lost from being unable to work, etc! very important resource please share if you can!!!
Boosting this! What the “injector” is doing could be considered assault and battery in some places. Since that’s a crime that involves a victim, victim compensation could be available. If it is, by law victims need to be notified (at least in AZ), so that should include that info. If not, ask for it.
Please don't book an appointment if the "injection tech" uploads videos of herself marking clients' lips with pink gel pens from Walmart. So not sanitary! We all need to look for the red flags when showing interest in anything. Always ask questions and don't take people at face value. Just because a person is pretty or they're nice doesn't mean they're a good human being that has your best interest at heart. Please dont find out too late that there's people out there who don't care about what happens to you.
I feel like the easiest way to not become a victim is by calling the state board in your state to see if said person is licensed. What I don't understand is people will do research to find the cheapest place to get their cars smogged yet they won't do the same when it comes to having someone inject shite into their bodies? I won't even purchase a beauty item until I've done all the research I can...
FYI- most hospitals have a charity/assistance program because of an agreement with the government (it’s in exchange for them not having to pay taxes). The issue is that a lot of hospitals will try to stop you from accessing it. Always ask for their policy in writing and check to see if your state has guidelines too.
This is how I got some of my hospital bills covered during the pandemic 🙌 All it took was some simple financial aid forms I found on the hospitals website
I’m a nurse and there are many things that can go wrong with lip filler. The main one being vascular occlusion which can lead to necrosis or tissue damage and death! Meaning your lips can fall off!
If your aesthetics nurse don’t tell you about that and give you their mobile in case of emergency do not go ahead, I love my injector she’s so good and also cleaning up other cowboy injectors messes
Also just an fyi I saw her put lipgloss on right after and after I was done my injector who was medically certified said you shouldn’t even put anything on your lips for 24 hours I know it’s small potatoes in the grand scheme Of all this but thought I’d mention
sometimes you can tell the quality of the technician's work by the habits of their clients..... it's like when you hear of people getting severe itch/buildup/lice from lash extensions I HAVE to wonder how much education their lash technician is providing and following up on for the client 🤢
@juicyparsons true, but some people are just dirty. Like when people go to a reputable piercer or tattoo artists and they don't clean or take care of their mod and then try to blame the artist/piercer.
The permanent make up people tattooing eyebrows on people, without having ANY kind of permanent make up training or licensing is WILD! They're out here telling people microblading is NOT permanent 😳 & it most certainly IS. Imagine having that on your face and it's mess?! And they also don't tell you that tattoo ink.... SPREADS under the skin in time. So, these women who had beautiful Microbladed eyebrows 2-3yrs ago.... Now have huge block eyebrows that no longer look like fine hair lines lol! It's crazy looking. And the only way to fix it is to have it lazered off and that's not cheap OR painless 🤦♀️😫 Between the tattoo eyebrows by non tattoo artists is crazy but so isn't the 4 women who just came forward to report they got the "Vampire facial" in Mexico and also got a side of HIV 😳😱😱🤬 A news chnl on YT had the report. Wild.
RN Injector here - this is not it. wtf… she’s using a gel pen on their lips before injecting 😵💫?! And the technique is abysmal. that’s not standard injecting technique. Jesus - and injecting over 1 CC to start is WILD. THIS 👏🏼 AINT 👏🏼 IT 👏🏼 All of these skills require overview from a medical director, a license yourself, and malpractice insurance, which she obviously can’t obtain. Also - all product should be coming directly from the manufacturer like allergen (for juvederm) NOT from a “supplier” - what does that even mean?!
Can’t get over the lashedbyla TikTok towards the end where she sterilized her hands then put on gloves and restocked/touched a bunch of things without changing gloves probably before injecting someone. Like just wearing gloves doesn’t keep contamination from happening girl.
Well you think that is bad. I was in the West Palm Beach VA in the rehabs section area as a impatient which is also the nursing home. 90% of the patient have no clue what is going on. Well the nurse come in a dumb the bedside comnode full of urine and sh*t and then without washing her hands or changing her gloves comes in with my meal tray. Thank God I was not hungry. That was about 15 years ago. Thank God I have a great immune system since I have not had the fle since Jr High and have not even had covid yet. I think not having kids help since they are the one who usually get sick and pass to the parent or teachers. You would be just amazed how some doctor and nurse are with washing or santizing there hands. I find doctors and nurses have gotten much better probably because of Covid and find most doctor and nurse use santizer as soon as they walk into the room and when they leave today when you rarely use to see a doctor waah there hands unless they were touching a wound or something like that.
I learned to pronounce it as "contra-indications". :) As a licensed esthetician, I am FLOORED to see this crap happening! In the state where I'm licensed, only certain medical professionals (like RNs, etc.) can perform injections, not an estie under their supervision. And you have to carry a license in each state you practice in! So to "tour" and share this is just mind blowing. I'm effing speechless.
I’ve unfortunately seen SO many people impersonating medical professionals on TikTok. Some wearing scrubs and calling themselves “doctor” yet they have a “doctorate” in chiropractic from a diploma mill. I’ve seen other pages where they just steal images of medical professionals from the internet and just put text over them and act like they are them. It’s a major issue and really serious. TikTok needs the “verified licensed medical professional” badge like RUclips had.
Actually anything you see on Tic tox should be view as entainment and is fake and just a performance. Some of it actually is. But how stupid can you be by taking advice about your health from tixtoc.
The harsh reality is the medical beauty industry is very unregulated. No one but physicians should be doing injectables at this point. I've seen too many horror stories from med spas ran and owned by nurses to med spas not owned by nurses to backyard injectors. There really needs to be strict regulation
The tattoo industry is also unregulated so like the medical beauty industry people can also do pretty bad things to themselves and have many issues arise. I really wish there was more research done by scientists and professionals who know what they’re talking about and can explain what to do/not to do in order to be safe both short and long term.
No we don’t lol. But some nurses are very skilled and experienced and we can learn a lot from them, but not every nurse is allowed to give injections. In the Netherlands only a few medical professionals are allowed to give injections, but we also have a lot of scammers it’s crazy.
Sorry but no, nurses are incredibly skilled people who go through a lot of education. All my family are nurses and are 100% competent in injecting people. How patronising
Here you have different levels of nurses and not everyone is allowed to give injections, as is probably also true in the USA. That’s not patronizing, that’s facts . You don’t have to tell me how well educated nurses are, but there are different levels. Are the certified nurses better than I am as a doctor to give them, yeah 100%, because I never have to do it anymore. So stating that injections are only allowed by a physician is wrong IMO, just as much saying that every nurse can give them.
When I used to live in Italy I was obsessed with having fuller lips. I sent an email to a cosmetic doctor with the photo of my lips attached. He answered saying that I didn't need any filler. I didn't like it back then lol but now I can really appreciate his professionalism 👐🏼
i havent watched yet as im out and about but theres a girl named Bea Amma who went to get B12 injections and fat disolving injections done at a place and she ended up getting a bacterial infection that eats away at her skin and thats alway running through my mind when I see this stuff. I cant wait to get home and dive in! Thanks for covering stuff like this!
I just want to say thank you for mentioning Bea Amma. I just searched her up on RUclips, and she is advocating for legislative change regarding medspas. She speaks about how she needs eyes on her story and similar ones, so people's lives can change for the better. I hope more people visit her page. it is called beyond skin deep.
okay i watched, im overwhelmed and have a lot of thoughts none of which are good so ill sum up with a) .... that so mink person is using a PINK FUCKING GEL PEN ON THEIR LIPS TO MARK..... THAT IS NOT SANITARY? ? ? b) what the literal FUCK
yeah, if your provider offers hyaluron pen injections-run. they essentially punch your lip with pressure so the filler explodes in. problem is, is that each pen has a different amount of pressure/ you have no idea how much pressure there is and the "tech" has no control in where it ends up. its not medical equipment in the slightest and is very very very risky. not to mention, these "techs" have no training on why filler must be injected in certain areas! there are a lot of blood vessels and nerves that can get really fucked up with one wrong poke!
I’ve had lip filler done by an actual plastic surgeon. I’ve never seen that taping method she did to keep the lips in place?!? Plus, he used tiny needles. Those big ones are likely why it’s migrating, it’s being pushed too far. Also, I got numbed before bc it actually hurts. Is she numbing them?!? This is so wild, it’s scary…
i was thinking the same thing! literally NEVER seen taping done on lips right after, and that thick gloss better not be getting into the needle holes, also never seen an immediately after with gloss, i feel like that’s not good
There are so many hospitals that offer financial assistance programs! I felt it was important to comment this. Hospitals don’t overtly advertise this because why would they? But most hospitals have assistance programs that you can apply for and they can cover most if not all of your medical bills depending on your income.
Very true. When I was pregnant and with a hospital network I did not expect expenses outside of 4500k especially with insurance. Including insurance I was running up 6k. I asked for assistance, its very low key you have to research and find it deeply hidden in their website but its there. They offered to pay 75 percent of my bill.
@@andreamiles9325 it's pretty fucked up. For most of the able-bodied younger folks it's a vague anxiety that hangs over your head and descends from time to time when something goes wrong, but for others it's trench warfare all day, every day.
@@Listening_Books12345this part. Our healthcare system costs skyrocket because of an influx of preventable visits from preventable problems, but we all pay the cost. Taking care of our health the best we can and avoiding unnecessary medical emergencies due to vanity work gone wrong is the LEAST we can do for ourselves and each other.
This became a trend with lash extensions too. People think you can take a class for it then you’re “licensed” but NO you need a whole cosmetology license! We were warned of these scams in cosmetology school. Same with some braiders and nail techs. Always make sure you check the state board of where you’re at to see if someone is licensed.
Just a note there is no “tech” position with injections. If you are part of a legal injection operation that follows rules in the states, you are at minimum a physician’s assistant under the supervision of a physician in an office, or an specially trained RN or NP like the majority of legal injectors. Qualified injectors have medical degrees and specialized, medical based training. The idea that innocent people who don’t know any better are a) giving this girl money to learn to do this or b) letting her inject them and are at major risk for severe issues is awful. Why do people think it’s okay to play with other’s health and well being like this, because you know that gal knows what she is doing isn’t legal.
Omg so I recently watched James Welsh's video about these new hyaluron pens and I think they're terrible. I wonder if this "injector" thinks this is legal because they are supposedly needleless and they're not technically "injecting." Either way I think it's so sad for her clients and anyone who falls for these scams. I hope strict punishments will prevent this from spreading further.
My sister is a nurse practitioner and has also been a cosmetic nurse for about 13+ years , so she does botox, filler, facial peels etc. I've never had filler, but I know she has to get it and botox on prescription, not off f'ing IG! Be careful guys, if this stuff goes wrong it can literally cause necrosis and you're skin tissue will rot and fall off! If you really want these treatments then save up and invest, it's not an immediate concern but necrosis and sepsis is. It can literally kill you. Stay safe, be healthy and don't compare yourself to others. Beauty is subjective ❤
Yessss!!@ Botox is literally Botulinum toxin (botulism)...a potentially fatal bacteria. If injected right, it stays in the muscle and you're fine. If not and it gets into your bloodstream, you're in for a very, very bad time and will need emergency care. Botulism weakens muscles. Hence the inability to move the facial muscles once injected. However, if it gets into the rest of your body, you can lose the ability to breathe by yourself. It is not a game. Always use a professional for this stuff.
Botox is made with Clostridium botulinum. A bacteria that causes paralysis in very small quantities. Cutting corners on any of these treatments is absolutely insane. It also took us weeks to practice basic venipuncture on prosthetics before practicing on each other/instructors. Getting licensed is the safest and secure way for these procedures.
@@AH-ph3cb definitely, there's a guy next to my sisters practice. He's a hairdresser who also does filler& botox. The girls my sister refuses to inject (the huge over filled lips etc.) Just go to him and it doesn't look good. He's also doing it a lot cheaper, but people don't understand that if he's doing it for so cheap, he's buying unregulated crap, plus he's not licensed and it shows.
I am in nursing school right now, to be a nursing injector, and school is intense and brutal!! But that’s what you have to do and it pisses me off that people want to cut corners!
All I can say is each person who has been hurt and scammed by her need to file a police report, and then individually report her to the state licensing board for cosmetology, and then individually lawyer up to presue a class action lawsuit. This is SO dangerous and such a serious issue it needs to be taken care of ASAP. Omfg. I cannot believe she can sleep at night while she scams all day and botches people. Absolutely wild.
17:57 that part! My injector told me “no” to additional cheek filler after I had already gotten some. She was right, once they settled, they looked great. And she didn’t mind turning down the additional $2k
Even me with a CNA certificate I’m not allowed to even put a single pill in a patient’s hand let alone insert an IV on their arm and we have people with ZERO licenses playing with people’s health. It’s also a slap in the face to the people that take the time and money to go to school and EARN their credentials in order to practice. There’s so much material that is required to learn when it comes to dealing with the human body and the fact that people want to cheat their way into this field by skipping all of it with a bullshit “course” is not only insane it’s scary. And then she’s teaching other people to do the same nonsense that she’s doing so now we will have even more unlicensed people illegally practicing and potentially ruining more lives. It’s sick. Like why do these people think they can do the same thing with a 1-3 week class that takes someone at least 3 years of school AND a standardized state exam to do?
In Missouri, there is no law or regulations over who can inject Botox and filler. I’m in the Kansas City area and work in Kansas, but I tell people to NEVER go to a med spa in Missouri because you may have an unlicensed or inadequately licensed person injecting you.
I am a large commercial insurance broker and my book mostly consists of medical malpractice insurance for people like paramedics, acupuncturists and nurses. My jaw dropped. I cant even wrap my head around the risks shes exposing herself to , especially in a country without socialized health care. WOW. I am not left speechless very often, but girl, you got me this morning. PLEASE make sure anyone that touches you is licensed and their license requires insurance. So scary
I’ve been a licensed beauty professional for 10+ years and I recently resigned last year because I just couldn’t deal with fixing all of the scammers or unlicensed work. It mentally did something to me lol. Now I pivoted into having my own ecom business which is stressful but not nearly as bad as how strange the beauty industry has gotten! Just subscribed!!!
I got my lips done at a clinic in a shopping centre in Australia (they’re everywhere) and the person that did them was a registered nurse. Before the injection was done she had to facetime either another nurse or a doctor (can’t quite remember) and I had to speak to them and confirm i knew the risks and what to do if something went wrong, they also made sure to check my allergies and, because I’m allergic to bees, let me know that they have everything they’d need medically on site incase of any negative reactions (dissolver contains bee venom). I couldn’t imagine just rocking up to some persons house/lash place and be chill with them sticking my face without all of that protocol 😬
@@cupid3890 it wasn’t to ask something. It was a requirement that I speak to this other nurse/doctor (I’m thinking now that it was a doctor) as a final step before proceeding with the procedure.
Also medical professionals always consult or verify with a colleague depending in the situation, that's called being professional and ensuring patient safety....I would be damned if my midwives never verified with each other the proper protocols to manage my high blood pressure if it came up after birth. I would expect nurses to always verify something before proceeding even though that's not the case here.
Great video! All these unlicensed "techs" are insane! One thing I noticed - (I have a Msc in Medical Microbiology.) When you were showing her reel, 1st she used hand sanitizer before gloves which is not enough! Soap and water are standard, sanitizer only if no water is available. Then after she put the gloves on, she was just touching all of the equipment and cotton pads - which I am assuming are not sterile either considering everything else. Nothing appears to be single use or had been autoclaved. Or even wiped with an alcohol wipe. I'd be surprised if she HASN'T given someone an infection, honestly.
@isabellaLanter Omg I had a horrible experience I went to a board certified dr to have lip filler and ended up with necrosis, strokes and seizures!! If even board certified physicians can make mistakes and have things like this happen then no one else should be doing it at all!! That girl is out here playing with peoples lives.. and the sad thing is no one knows how dangerous it really is to get lip filer I know I didn’t my sister talked me into and I had no idea it could be dangerous. I appreciate you bringing light to this & I hope that girl is held accountable.. lord knows my dr wasn’t and I still have medical bills due to it.
Complications like necrosis can happen even in the most skilled medical providers hands and it is not necessarily a “mistake” on the providers fault. Also, how did you not know of how dangerous it is as there are waiver forms with potential complications you need to sign off on. This can happen from the best doctors much less an untrained medical professional. Sorry that happened to you and ya’ll be safe out there.
This wasn’t a complication we later found out I wasn’t the only one this provider done this to. There was no waiver, there was a form that I had to fill out that asked personal info but there was no waiver or anything I had to sign. & while your correct it could be a complication most of the time it is because they injected in the wrong area
You're an angel for putting this kind of info up. I watched this out of curiosity because I'm not into this sort of stuff, but I appreciated the message, because I know there are some innocent people out there that are vulnerable, and need to hear it.
Also as a cosmetologist you can not be lash extensions certified unless you’re a LICENSED cosmetologist or a licensed esthetician. No nail tech or just anyone can get the certification if you do you do not have the right training and whoever accepted you licensed or not should be reported to state.
As a nurse, all of this is so terrible and scary to see happening. Sadly, people are also doing the same with ozempic (and similar) injections. Extremely dangerous
I practically had to be wrestled down by my dentist and her assistant while they injected local anesthesia directly into my gums so I coud get a very necessary root canal. Mind you, I get *ANXIOUS* going to the dentist BUT I still went because 1) I risked losing my front tooth, and 2) she was a professional with a degree and legit medical supplies. I can't imagine an unlicensed anyone jamming a needle into my lips and injecting something she bought online.
I agree w you, girl. I don't think you need any lip filler! I'm almost 40 and love my lips! No shame if you get filler or any procedure(s) though. Love your body, however that looks! ♡ Just be safe out there!!!!
Giiirl how are people so confident?! Or stupid should I say.. I've done my own manicure for years and my family always want me to do their nails too and I've never once touched their nails in fear of causing an infection or sth. THESE PEOPLE ARE INJECTING WITH NEEDLES!!
thank you for bringing awareness about this. i literally just went to ig to report her account as it should be stopped. literally still going on tours, and saw on her story that people just literally got their lips done by her! gosh, the audacity
Aloha Love!! Was just thinking, in 10 months Ryan saw 3 people - she's not the only injector besides the unlicensed so if she saw 3 we don't know how many could've gone straight to the hospital, their regular Dr.'s or other spa places 2 seek help 2... Now that's scary 2 think about!! Mahalo 4 all the work u do & the time u take 2 educate/inform us w/videos like these!! Keep up the amazing job!! Stay blessed!! Aloha!!
I’m a medical assistant and I went through the additional certification process for injections while I was working as a pharmacy technician but I wouldn’t want to train unlicensed individuals to inject themselves let alone anyone else unless they’re diabetic or an epipen user. So many things can and will go wrong if an unlicensed individual without epipen or diabetic injection knowledge attempts to inject another individual. Not to mention the Good Samaritan law has a ton of gray area when doing so in situations where a person with an epipen or diabetic person becomes unresponsive. Please get the proper training through the AHA, Red Cross or other Agencies certified in training individuals how to properly perform said injections. I’ve seen all kinds of things go wrong and after a certain point if a bad injection occurs there are risks of injury, infection, sepsis, and in extreme cases death… especially if you don’t know the proper amount to inject, areas appropriate to inject, etc.
@@samuelengesvik2815that’s completely understandable in my training to even get my medical assistant degree and license there were multiple lab courses where we learned to inject ourselves and one another (with saline). Injecting myself was a little more difficult since my right hand is more steady than my left but finding the right angle for all injection types (SUBQ, IM, and IV) was really dependent on a few things how much fat I had on my arms at the time, focus levels, fluid intake, etc. When you inject yourself I feel like it’s easier to be mindful of those things but when injecting other people you have to ask a ton of questions before you start the process especially if it’s the first time you’ve seen someone. Plus a lot of people who are needle phobic will not tell you 😅
As a Canadian I cannot fathom that you poor things can't just go to the hospital in an emergency for free and be treated that is such a human right violation it blows my dang mind. The amount of times a walk in has been closed and I have had to take my sick child in to be looked at, if I had to pay for that there is no question he would be dead. I don't know how y'all can do it.
most states have healthcare expanded to cover children, as well as dental. Until they are 18 or 22 yrs old. its just once u hit that age u are on ur on
@@MisseryMoth I'm glad to hear that you are offered something for children. However I do still think healthcare should be just a right as a citizen of a first world country.
@@aduckofsomesort we don't have any credit or family to help cosign for a loan so yes. He has autism so anytime he has a sore throat he won't eat or drink and needs iv liquids, so yes actually.
I haven’t had any fillers Botox etc, but ladies please be careful with where you go for anything. Sepsis and bacterium can be dangerous or fatal. If the injector isn’t certified and uses a needle contaminated with bacteria or if she wrongly injects, the outcome can be life altering. If you’ve really thought about going ahead with a procedure, make sure it’s properly adminstered
Isabella, I don't know if you ever looked into the Coolsculpt lawsuit. Bassically Linda Evangelista sued them for disfiguring her and iirc they settled. I followed the whole case, it was really upsetting to see people hate on Linda for being "vain" as if coolsculpt wasn't always advertised as super safe... From what I gathered they didn't care to give estheticians enough hours of training, which resulted in the machine being used incorrectly. Instead of fat getting "frozen" as advertised, for example the machine was kept on one area for too long and people would end up with chunks of solidified fat under skin. So like you're getting lipedema instead of "safe" lipo :(
I didn't follow her case but I have read some horror stories about Cool Sculpting. It's scary to see their services still being advertised. You should hear the things I say back to the TV (lol) when one of their commercials pop up. Even if they offered to do it for free I still wouldn't take them up on it. I'll happily keep my excess fat... lol
This is truly truly insane. In Texas, you actually don’t have to have any type of medical license to do injections including Botox which literally paralyzes muscles. These people have zero knowledge of anatomy, physiology, medications, dosages, how to reconstitute, aseptic technique, infection/ complication protocols, etc. and are learning in a 1 or 2 day course how to perform what is technically a medical procedure. Lash artists, nail techs, your neighborhood 18 year old, etc are all being certified, & it’s insane. Then they create a “course” or training and start teaching other unqualified people as well as a way to make money! The fact that they offer “vendors” for the filler shows that they aren’t using actual FDA approved, medical-grade products because only a few companies create these fillers and they won’t ship them to a house. They will only ship them to business addresses like a medspa or doctors office, so you know they are injecting people with whatever they can order on alibaba and Amazon which is how they are able to perform these procedures for such a cheap price. Stay safe people! Make sure your injector is a qualified RN, NP, PA, or MD!
good ol texas yeehaw, i want to get a tattoo artist apprenticeship eventually because it’s my dream to become a tattoo artist and that was literally the first red flag i noticed. blood borne pathogen courses and a license to operate aren’t required by texas bylaw which is stupid, they don’t even have any regulations on sterilizing studio spaces. oh god i just saw the lashedbylagorgeous clip girl not the porous surfaces that’s a cesspit for germs and diseases, no fabrics no fuzzy things you need disposable paper bed sheets and cling wrap to make sure the patients bed space is sterile ughhhh
You’re videos are just my favourite thing, I love how educated and informative they are. The effort you put in really show. I appreciate you and sending s much love 🤍
Thank you for this informative video!! I’ve been getting my lips done for a while now, and I ONLY go to a licensed practitioner that is board certified to practice fillers in a medical spa setting. A few years ago, I had an appointment scheduled to get my lip fillers at this “medical spa” but thankfully I read reviews before going since it was a place I’ve never been to before. There were several reviews stating that they were going to take legal actions because the injector was just a licensed esthetician and a “certified injector” NOT a licensed medical practitioner. They had terrible reactions to whatever this certified injector injected into their lips. Please be aware of who you are trusting to inject in your body. Very scary situation that I almost got myself into! Phew! So glad I avoided that but it makes me sad for the people that had those terrible experiences.
Bella, I wanted to comment again because I've been watching your videos now for at least 2 years. THANK YOU for your time and energy to make us aware of situations like this, I know this is what you do but thank you from all of us. more people need to have their stories shared, TikTok especially is so bad with removing videos for "violations" but the videos are actual FACTUAL information and still get removed somehow. you are a light to this dark world and we thank you so much ❤❤❤❤❤ every single video you post is truly gold.
She goes by soofaced now on tiktok. She is still doing fillers. She does not have it disclosed ANYWHERE what/where her licenses are, that she can legally do any kind of injection or filler. I don't want this to start a witch hunt, just wanna keep people out of the hospital
Huge red flag when the “educational” graphic at 0:53 about Microneedling vs Hyaluron pen had incomplete and botched sentences. If I have to guess at what you’re trying to say because you’re missing half the sentence, I’m not trusting you to teach me shit.
This is wild af, why our healthcare system needs improvement across the board. Yes I know cosmetic isn’t covered but if it affects your quality of life is an exception.
Listen, if you want cosmetic stuff done, more power to you. But if you can’t afford medical insurance, you can’t afford cosmetic procedures, especially “cheap” ones.
I hope anyone considering getting these procedures sees this video and does lots of research. I get self conscious about stuff and have seen some too good to be true ads for these fillers on Instagram. Don’t let that insecurity get to you to the point that your health and safety is put at risk from someone selling lies. 💜
Good luck getting those assistance from hospitals. Also hospitals are NOT ashamed of their prices. Ask for the itemized receipt but the cost doesn’t change. That “trick” has never worked for me… they aren’t ashamed to charge for gloves or whatever you think there gonna knock off the price… Anyway take heed. Go to the hospital just know that depending on your income bracket they will tell you how much you owe monthly and if you try to argue they’ll just send you to collections. This happened with me :/ The monthly they told me? 350$ a month. I was living paycheck to paycheck and sometimes putting off necessary bills. Income bracket isn’t everything, and the standard for “poverty” has stayed the same even though the threshold for what constitutes poverty HAS NEEDED to be raised for YEARS.
I recently came across your page and I love what you’re about! I love your message. I appreciate you including the part about applying for medical debt being paid through hospital donations. Like wow. That could really save someone so much suffering
Honestly at this point I’m tired and don’t feel all that bad for these people. If you as a full-blown adult think letting Veneers By Vanessa handle your teeth or another random inject you is a good idea then so be it.
I subscribed to your channel. I loved that you still encourage to go to the hospital without insurance. You gave clear explanations and reasons to do so, and you researched. You really care about your audience and for that I subbed. Keep up the wonderful work, and thanku! 😊
This has been going on for years. There was a lady on RUclips that was instructing people to do this online. She was eventually taken down. I think she has her own app now. She didn’t say to do it on others but this was more for people to do it on themselves.
Miss Isa, there's another drama in Tik Tok over consumption, now people are obsessed with mini Tote Bags, they're now the new Stanley Cups. Do a video of it, they're taking over the stores and even doing lines for it 😭
unfortunately these things like fillers, veneers, lashes, nails, etc.. are luxuries and they are luxuries for a reason. I understand the social pressure to have all these things, but you need to pay the premium to get them done by a professional. I've gone without getting my hair, lashes and nails done when I needed to save money. the whole "high maintenance to be low maintenance" trend is not a realistic lifestyle for most people
Hey angels happy Sunday! I know we are giggling through this video but on a serious note this is a hugeee issue. NOBODY should be injecting anyone without proper education. People can end up in the hospital and have permanent damage. Please check credentials and support locations like Mysa Medical & Wellness Spa who are equipped to provide a service like this! Stay safe out there ya'll. I want everyone to practice this service safely and receive this service safely! While I understand the appeal of hylaraun pens. There are major issues that can happen with this and your safest bet is to go to a licensed injector! Remember all statements are my own opinions.
Update: *I have a deep dive/follow up video about this going live May 31st 2024 5:30pm CST! It’s a juicy one so stay tuned!*
girl this is insane! the fallout of veneer techs will happen next
I reported her to the Texas State Board for Cosmetology, HPD, Tik Tok(lost cause), IG, Fb and anywhere else I could think of. Not in my City and state. So over these fake “specialists” or “Technicians”…same thing with the Veneers. So done with this Bull💩 are they not realizing that they are hurting ppl?? All this for some quick money 💴. Shame on you and not if I can help it.
oh and please dont forget to never use GROUPON for injectables or plastic surgery!
I’m a chemist at the company that makes Juvederm, Botox, and other injectables (Allergan/AbbVie) I will be reporting her to our company. The CDC had to recently release warnings because people have gotten Botox poisoning from fake injectors. This is a HUGE issue.
Many hospitals have forms for people who don't have insurance and it's for free care. If you are approved, they may even cover you for a year, or however long your hospital extends it for. And you'll just have to reapply. And if you make too much they'll do a slide and scale based on your income. And find out if you can use it at the hospital pharmacy!!! Every hospital has a pharmacy, just find out if they fill prescriptions for outpatient care (ER, or other areas of the hospital where you're treated and leave & don't stay over). My hospitals pharmacy will fill any script from any of their departments, even walk ins (&out, like ER) & you just give them your free care card or paperwork. Always advocate for yourself.... A hospital can not turn you away for lack of insurance or ability to pay so never skip not caring for yourself or your family members bc of no insurance! There is so much out there for people who can't afford health insurance! ❤
Hyaluron pens were originally made for insulin delivery for diabetic patients who are terrified of needles. Insulin is a very small molecule and can be pushed into the tissue with that pen; however, hyaluronic acid filler molecules are HUGE and cannot be pushed through the skin with these pens. It leaves substantial trauma, lumps, modules and significant swelling. Along with scar tissue and granulomas which can leave lips permanently deformed.. I have seen many patients who come to me after they've had this done and there is little to nothing I can do for them aside from referring them to a plastic surgeon for surgical correction...DNP injector here❤
Thank you for the knowledge!
Thanks for the information! This is awful
Thank you! I am from Germany and they started over here doing crucial work like this I am happy you explained so well
Holy shit, you’re right when you said hyaluronic acid is HUGE. Insulin has 788 atoms a molecule while hyaluronic acid has a whopping 329,000,000 atoms a molecule!
thank you for this information. i had no idea it was originally made for diabetes. that's so cool!
For f*cks sake, why can't people just stick to external cosmetic stuff like lash, nails, hair, etc. Why do they have to overstep into a field where there's almost no room for error aka fields that can kill people with the smallest mistake.
I think some of them genuinely think it’s the same thing and that’s scary!
Fr like at least lip liner or gloss plumpers are natural looking and no risk. Lip injections are always noticeable and I think they make people look silly like they just got stung by a bee
7:10 Imagine trying to warn people about an unlincensed scammer injecting chemicals into unaware customers' lips, and tiktok shutting you down due to their guidelines saying "not cool" while they allow the same scammer to use their platform to promote their business.
The same thing happens all the time on youtube, I've noticed particularly with animal abuse. People will do absolutely awful shit and anyone who calls them out gets shut down for "bullying and harassment". Yikes.
And the CEO is everywhere talking about our freedom of speech being taken away with this TT ban, SIR! YOU are censoring us! The amount of times that I had a comment removed for "violating guidelines " - since when is my opinion a "violation "?
yeah, capitalism sucks
IT'S ALL A PYRAMID SCHEME
@@mmmbepis8643I’ve also seen many times where animal abuse content is able to stay up despite getting flagged, but then when someone makes a response video, the response video gets flagged as animal abuse and is removed.
between this and the veneer tech scam, don't know what's worse
I know and it's all getting aired out so fast. I am shockedddd
@@IsabellaLanterI also don't understand how this stuff gets taken down relatively fast on tik tok. they never take down stuff that needs to be. classic internet I suppose. its good to make people aware, facial and dental health is important B)
Vaneers most def
This can cause necrosis of the lips, infections and possibly sepsis. Veneers can cause sepsis and infection too. I also don't know what's worse.

That hyaluronic pen is nasty work. Some people use it to get around the license required for injections. The results are so uncontrollable. These people deserve jail time honestly!

@@Theunicorn2012 why did you literally copy paste this lmaooo
I’ve seen a cosmetic surgeon react to some people videos doing diy fillers using them as if they were doing a makeup tutorial. It was horrific!
it kills me how shes wearing rubber gloves and yet is touching EVERYTHING in the room! her phone, boxes, and everything else lol ridiculous
yeah that was a separate person from the main creator I was showing. But still that was a huge red flag with someone else doing that too.
right, i feel like thats the first thing you learn in anything that requires you to wear gloves, piercing, medicine damn even hairdressing! YOU CHANGE YOUR GLOVES IF U TOUCH SOMETHING
@@kitty6591This is often not the case within food service.
@@GogiRegion No, it absolutely *is* expected of food service workers to change their gloves after touching raw meat; separate cutting boards, specific ratios of specific cleaners allowed to be used in an environment that handles and/or produces food.
Now, does everyone follow that?...
@@NeonGalaxy666 this is why so many professional kitchens don't recommend gloves. You're a lot more likely to wash your hands regularly, which is a lot safer than constantly replacing gloves.
This pisses me off so bad bc I’m busting my ass in nursing school to be able to do injectables and then there’s these people on the internet taking a 2 hour course and saying they’re qualified!!! Ridiculous!!!
that sounds so frustrating. just know you’re going to be protecting people from horrible medical issues down the line by doing it the right way. once these horrible injections go wrong, people are gonna be running to licensed professionals like you to fix it.
With the proper credentials you will ALWAYS rise above the "competition" girly 💕 (not to mention you wont risk literal prison time)
@@NyraDelReyFACTS
Same!! As a nursing student l cant imagine being so nonchalant about just injecting random shit into people with no medical knowledge just to make money
Congratulations to you on your journey!!!!! ❤❤❤ wishing you nothing but success and positivity
the internet is becoming an increasingly more wild place - or has this stuff always existed and we're all getting more exposed to it due to internet being more accessible?
I think so much more is getting exposed now! Thankfully people are calling out bs more so we can bring awareness. But there will always be a new creative scam sadly
Definitely both. The Internet has made things so much more accessible for a much larger audience.. If you wanted to scam someone back in 1999, you had to show up at their house, call them, etc and there's only so many hours in a day. Now, you can scam a million people a week if you have the audience.
People have been injecting products they shouldn't be into unsuspecting victims for years.
I remember years ago a woman who was injecting like home depot silicone into people which goes without saying is incredibly dangerous.
@@katou89611 oh yes I remember many cases like this, actually!!
The internet has always been wild people are just more bold today. Or dumb enough to put it more publicly. Probably both
I just know these "courses" don't cover a thing regarding bloodborn pathogens. They not only don't care about patient safety but also the "trainee" safety either. 🤬
I just know these "courses" don't cover a thing regarding bloodborn pathogens. They not only don't care about patient safety but also the "trainee" safety either. 😡
As a retired clinical microbiologist, I wholeheartedly agree 💯
Yes. They make you take microbiology in Nursing school for a reason. Most people have no idea what dangers they're exposing other people to.
Four or so years ago, three women got HIV from contaminated equipment after having "vampire facials" (microneedling) in New Mexico. The average spa tech has less bloodborne pathogen training than a tattoo artist, much less a nurse!
@@Theunicorn2012 Are you a parrot? Why repeat someone else's comment word for word?
if she goes to the police about this she can get what is called 'victims compensation fund', and medical bills related to this issue will be completely covered, as well as therapy, money lost from being unable to work, etc! very important resource please share if you can!!!
Boosting this! What the “injector” is doing could be considered assault and battery in some places. Since that’s a crime that involves a victim, victim compensation could be available. If it is, by law victims need to be notified (at least in AZ), so that should include that info. If not, ask for it.
Great advice! Thank you for sharing!!
Please don't book an appointment if the "injection tech" uploads videos of herself marking clients' lips with pink gel pens from Walmart. So not sanitary! We all need to look for the red flags when showing interest in anything. Always ask questions and don't take people at face value. Just because a person is pretty or they're nice doesn't mean they're a good human being that has your best interest at heart. Please dont find out too late that there's people out there who don't care about what happens to you.
I feel like the easiest way to not become a victim is by calling the state board in your state to see if said person is licensed. What I don't understand is people will do research to find the cheapest place to get their cars smogged yet they won't do the same when it comes to having someone inject shite into their bodies? I won't even purchase a beauty item until I've done all the research I can...
FYI- most hospitals have a charity/assistance program because of an agreement with the government (it’s in exchange for them not having to pay taxes). The issue is that a lot of hospitals will try to stop you from accessing it. Always ask for their policy in writing and check to see if your state has guidelines too.
This is how I got some of my hospital bills covered during the pandemic 🙌 All it took was some simple financial aid forms I found on the hospitals website
I’m a nurse and there are many things that can go wrong with lip filler. The main one being vascular occlusion which can lead to necrosis or tissue damage and death! Meaning your lips can fall off!
If your aesthetics nurse don’t tell you about that and give you their mobile in case of emergency do not go ahead, I love my injector she’s so good and also cleaning up other cowboy injectors messes
There are so many cases of this going wrong with LICENSED PHYSICIANS!! and people go around and seek random untrained scammers?
Ryan has legit saved lives by reporting and exposing this person - thanks, Isabella for boosting the message!
she just posted someone elses message which anyone can do
Also just an fyi I saw her put lipgloss on right after and after I was done my injector who was medically certified said you shouldn’t even put anything on your lips for 24 hours I know it’s small potatoes in the grand scheme
Of all this but thought I’d mention
sometimes you can tell the quality of the technician's work by the habits of their clients..... it's like when you hear of people getting severe itch/buildup/lice from lash extensions I HAVE to wonder how much education their lash technician is providing and following up on for the client 🤢
@juicyparsons true, but some people are just dirty. Like when people go to a reputable piercer or tattoo artists and they don't clean or take care of their mod and then try to blame the artist/piercer.
i'm so hyperfixated on scammer content right now, thank you for existing
The permanent make up people tattooing eyebrows on people, without having ANY kind of permanent make up training or licensing is WILD! They're out here telling people microblading is NOT permanent 😳 & it most certainly IS. Imagine having that on your face and it's mess?! And they also don't tell you that tattoo ink.... SPREADS under the skin in time. So, these women who had beautiful Microbladed eyebrows 2-3yrs ago.... Now have huge block eyebrows that no longer look like fine hair lines lol! It's crazy looking. And the only way to fix it is to have it lazered off and that's not cheap OR painless 🤦♀️😫
Between the tattoo eyebrows by non tattoo artists is crazy but so isn't the 4 women who just came forward to report they got the "Vampire facial" in Mexico and also got a side of HIV 😳😱😱🤬 A news chnl on YT had the report. Wild.
I’m currently on nail techs doing veneers and I’m amazed.
REAL
i'm so hyperfixated on scammer content right now, thank you for existing
It’s wild out here in these streets
Recently a girl in my town injected some fillers herself and as a result, she's now blind and still hospitalised.
How recent was this?
@@_stargirlastra last month
blind 😨 that is terrifying
@@_stargirlastra okay IDK if my answer keeps getting deleted or why I don't see it. It happened around 16 days ago.
@@momentosconmigo yes that’s always a possibility with fillers in the upper face, filling upper cheeks near the eyes, temples, forehead etc.
This is so terrifying. They're going on tour like it's a a concert. 😬
RN Injector here - this is not it. wtf… she’s using a gel pen on their lips before injecting 😵💫?! And the technique is abysmal. that’s not standard injecting technique. Jesus - and injecting over 1 CC to start is WILD. THIS 👏🏼 AINT 👏🏼 IT 👏🏼
All of these skills require overview from a medical director, a license yourself, and malpractice insurance, which she obviously can’t obtain. Also - all product should be coming directly from the manufacturer like allergen (for juvederm) NOT from a “supplier” - what does that even mean?!
Thanks for sharing. I am not a nurse but it looked suspicious
It means illegally obtained because most manufacturers don't sell to non licensed people.
Can’t get over the lashedbyla TikTok towards the end where she sterilized her hands then put on gloves and restocked/touched a bunch of things without changing gloves probably before injecting someone. Like just wearing gloves doesn’t keep contamination from happening girl.
this ^!!!!!
People are dumb and think it does
In food service, this is a massive problem. Studies have shown that when people wear gloves, there’s more cross contamination.
Not to mention the moving the camera to get the different angles…
Well you think that is bad. I was in the West Palm Beach VA in the rehabs section area as a impatient which is also the nursing home. 90% of the patient have no clue what is going on. Well the nurse come in a dumb the bedside comnode full of urine and sh*t and then without washing her hands or changing her gloves comes in with my meal tray. Thank God I was not hungry. That was about 15 years ago. Thank God I have a great immune system since I have not had the fle since Jr High and have not even had covid yet. I think not having kids help since they are the one who usually get sick and pass to the parent or teachers. You would be just amazed how some doctor and nurse are with washing or santizing there hands. I find doctors and nurses have gotten much better probably because of Covid and find most doctor and nurse use santizer as soon as they walk into the room and when they leave today when you rarely use to see a doctor waah there hands unless they were touching a wound or something like that.
I learned to pronounce it as "contra-indications". :)
As a licensed esthetician, I am FLOORED to see this crap happening! In the state where I'm licensed, only certain medical professionals (like RNs, etc.) can perform injections, not an estie under their supervision. And you have to carry a license in each state you practice in! So to "tour" and share this is just mind blowing. I'm effing speechless.
I’ve unfortunately seen SO many people impersonating medical professionals on TikTok. Some wearing scrubs and calling themselves “doctor” yet they have a “doctorate” in chiropractic from a diploma mill. I’ve seen other pages where they just steal images of medical professionals from the internet and just put text over them and act like they are them. It’s a major issue and really serious. TikTok needs the “verified licensed medical professional” badge like RUclips had.
Actually anything you see on Tic tox should be view as entainment and is fake and just a performance. Some of it actually is. But how stupid can you be by taking advice about your health from tixtoc.
The harsh reality is the medical beauty industry is very unregulated. No one but physicians should be doing injectables at this point. I've seen too many horror stories from med spas ran and owned by nurses to med spas not owned by nurses to backyard injectors. There really needs to be strict regulation
The tattoo industry is also unregulated so like the medical beauty industry people can also do pretty bad things to themselves and have many issues arise. I really wish there was more research done by scientists and professionals who know what they’re talking about and can explain what to do/not to do in order to be safe both short and long term.
Doctors learn how to do any injections from nurses so it wouldn’t make much of the difference
No we don’t lol. But some nurses are very skilled and experienced and we can learn a lot from them, but not every nurse is allowed to give injections. In the Netherlands only a few medical professionals are allowed to give injections, but we also have a lot of scammers it’s crazy.
Sorry but no, nurses are incredibly skilled people who go through a lot of education. All my family are nurses and are 100% competent in injecting people. How patronising
Here you have different levels of nurses and not everyone is allowed to give injections, as is probably also true in the USA. That’s not patronizing, that’s facts
. You don’t have to tell me how well educated nurses are, but there are different levels. Are the certified nurses better than I am as a doctor to give them, yeah 100%, because I never have to do it anymore. So stating that injections are only allowed by a physician is wrong IMO, just as much saying that every nurse can give them.
When I used to live in Italy I was obsessed with having fuller lips. I sent an email to a cosmetic doctor with the photo of my lips attached. He answered saying that I didn't need any filler. I didn't like it back then lol but now I can really appreciate his professionalism 👐🏼
i havent watched yet as im out and about but theres a girl named Bea Amma who went to get B12 injections and fat disolving injections done at a place and she ended up getting a bacterial infection that eats away at her skin and thats alway running through my mind when I see this stuff.
I cant wait to get home and dive in! Thanks for covering stuff like this!
Yes omg her interview on youtube was so shocking, I was so horrified and appalled by what happened to her.
I just want to say thank you for mentioning Bea Amma. I just searched her up on RUclips, and she is advocating for legislative change regarding medspas. She speaks about how she needs eyes on her story and similar ones, so people's lives can change for the better. I hope more people visit her page. it is called beyond skin deep.
okay i watched, im overwhelmed and have a lot of thoughts none of which are good so ill sum up with a) .... that so mink person is using a PINK FUCKING GEL PEN ON THEIR LIPS TO MARK..... THAT IS NOT SANITARY? ? ? b) what the literal FUCK
My mom use to make me get those at a salon when I was like 12. I’m so lucky nothing bad happened.
yeah, if your provider offers hyaluron pen injections-run. they essentially punch your lip with pressure so the filler explodes in. problem is, is that each pen has a different amount of pressure/ you have no idea how much pressure there is and the "tech" has no control in where it ends up. its not medical equipment in the slightest and is very very very risky. not to mention, these "techs" have no training on why filler must be injected in certain areas! there are a lot of blood vessels and nerves that can get really fucked up with one wrong poke!
I’ve had lip filler done by an actual plastic surgeon. I’ve never seen that taping method she did to keep the lips in place?!? Plus, he used tiny needles. Those big ones are likely why it’s migrating, it’s being pushed too far. Also, I got numbed before bc it actually hurts. Is she numbing them?!? This is so wild, it’s scary…
i was thinking the same thing! literally NEVER seen taping done on lips right after, and that thick gloss better not be getting into the needle holes, also never seen an immediately after with gloss, i feel like that’s not good
I would never let someone that isn’t a plastic surgeon go near my face with needles!
There are so many hospitals that offer financial assistance programs! I felt it was important to comment this. Hospitals don’t overtly advertise this because why would they? But most hospitals have assistance programs that you can apply for and they can cover most if not all of your medical bills depending on your income.
especially if they are a nonprofit hospital they legally have to at least in the state of pennsylvania from what i know
Very true. When I was pregnant and with a hospital network I did not expect expenses outside of 4500k especially with insurance. Including insurance I was running up 6k. I asked for assistance, its very low key you have to research and find it deeply hidden in their website but its there. They offered to pay 75 percent of my bill.
I still can't get over the idea of not being able to go to hospital because it would cost too much.
@@andreamiles9325 it's pretty fucked up. For most of the able-bodied younger folks it's a vague anxiety that hangs over your head and descends from time to time when something goes wrong, but for others it's trench warfare all day, every day.
@@Listening_Books12345this part. Our healthcare system costs skyrocket because of an influx of preventable visits from preventable problems, but we all pay the cost. Taking care of our health the best we can and avoiding unnecessary medical emergencies due to vanity work gone wrong is the LEAST we can do for ourselves and each other.
This became a trend with lash extensions too. People think you can take a class for it then you’re “licensed” but NO you need a whole cosmetology license! We were warned of these scams in cosmetology school. Same with some braiders and nail techs. Always make sure you check the state board of where you’re at to see if someone is licensed.
Just a note there is no “tech” position with injections. If you are part of a legal injection operation that follows rules in the states, you are at minimum a physician’s assistant under the supervision of a physician in an office, or an specially trained RN or NP like the majority of legal injectors. Qualified injectors have medical degrees and specialized, medical based training. The idea that innocent people who don’t know any better are a) giving this girl money to learn to do this or b) letting her inject them and are at major risk for severe issues is awful. Why do people think it’s okay to play with other’s health and well being like this, because you know that gal knows what she is doing isn’t legal.
Omg so I recently watched James Welsh's video about these new hyaluron pens and I think they're terrible. I wonder if this "injector" thinks this is legal because they are supposedly needleless and they're not technically "injecting." Either way I think it's so sad for her clients and anyone who falls for these scams. I hope strict punishments will prevent this from spreading further.
Totally agree. Love James Welsh 😊
My sister is a nurse practitioner and has also been a cosmetic nurse for about 13+ years , so she does botox, filler, facial peels etc.
I've never had filler, but I know she has to get it and botox on prescription, not off f'ing IG!
Be careful guys, if this stuff goes wrong it can literally cause necrosis and you're skin tissue will rot and fall off!
If you really want these treatments then save up and invest, it's not an immediate concern but necrosis and sepsis is. It can literally kill you.
Stay safe, be healthy and don't compare yourself to others. Beauty is subjective ❤
Yessss!!@
Botox is literally Botulinum toxin (botulism)...a potentially fatal bacteria. If injected right, it stays in the muscle and you're fine. If not and it gets into your bloodstream, you're in for a very, very bad time and will need emergency care. Botulism weakens muscles. Hence the inability to move the facial muscles once injected. However, if it gets into the rest of your body, you can lose the ability to breathe by yourself. It is not a game. Always use a professional for this stuff.
Botox is made with Clostridium botulinum. A bacteria that causes paralysis in very small quantities.
Cutting corners on any of these treatments is absolutely insane.
It also took us weeks to practice basic venipuncture on prosthetics before practicing on each other/instructors.
Getting licensed is the safest and secure way for these procedures.
@@AH-ph3cb definitely, there's a guy next to my sisters practice. He's a hairdresser who also does filler& botox.
The girls my sister refuses to inject (the huge over filled lips etc.) Just go to him and it doesn't look good.
He's also doing it a lot cheaper, but people don't understand that if he's doing it for so cheap, he's buying unregulated crap, plus he's not licensed and it shows.
"thats a big word for Elmo" 😭😭🤣🤣 this whole situation is terrifying
The fact that shes certifying people without a certification herself is actually wild💀
I am in nursing school right now, to be a nursing injector, and school is intense and brutal!! But that’s what you have to do and it pisses me off that people want to cut corners!
Omg can we investigate the backdoor bargin braces??? Like “come get your Lashes, Lips filled, micro bladed brows, hair done, and BRACES done by me”
All I can say is each person who has been hurt and scammed by her need to file a police report, and then individually report her to the state licensing board for cosmetology, and then individually lawyer up to presue a class action lawsuit. This is SO dangerous and such a serious issue it needs to be taken care of ASAP. Omfg. I cannot believe she can sleep at night while she scams all day and botches people. Absolutely wild.
17:57 that part! My injector told me “no” to additional cheek filler after I had already gotten some. She was right, once they settled, they looked great. And she didn’t mind turning down the additional $2k
I heard a story where a mother daughter team were using the concrete mix for BBLs
OH MY GOD????? OH MY GOD. That is terrifying
@@IsabellaLanter I guess the one thing good is that they are in jail. I saw it on a countdown channel
Yes, they were arrested.
Back in 2011 there was a case of a woman injecting Fix-A-Flat tire sealant for BBLs.
Cash only says it all really.
Even me with a CNA certificate I’m not allowed to even put a single pill in a patient’s hand let alone insert an IV on their arm and we have people with ZERO licenses playing with people’s health. It’s also a slap in the face to the people that take the time and money to go to school and EARN their credentials in order to practice. There’s so much material that is required to learn when it comes to dealing with the human body and the fact that people want to cheat their way into this field by skipping all of it with a bullshit “course” is not only insane it’s scary. And then she’s teaching other people to do the same nonsense that she’s doing so now we will have even more unlicensed people illegally practicing and potentially ruining more lives. It’s sick. Like why do these people think they can do the same thing with a 1-3 week class that takes someone at least 3 years of school AND a standardized state exam to do?
In Missouri, there is no law or regulations over who can inject Botox and filler. I’m in the Kansas City area and work in Kansas, but I tell people to NEVER go to a med spa in Missouri because you may have an unlicensed or inadequately licensed person injecting you.
I am a large commercial insurance broker and my book mostly consists of medical malpractice insurance for people like paramedics, acupuncturists and nurses. My jaw dropped. I cant even wrap my head around the risks shes exposing herself to , especially in a country without socialized health care. WOW. I am not left speechless very often, but girl, you got me this morning. PLEASE make sure anyone that touches you is licensed and their license requires insurance. So scary
sorry for the double comment but I can totally see an injector MLM springing up soon...yikes on a bike!!
I’ve been a licensed beauty professional for 10+ years and I recently resigned last year because I just couldn’t deal with fixing all of the scammers or unlicensed work. It mentally did something to me lol. Now I pivoted into having my own ecom business which is stressful but not nearly as bad as how strange the beauty industry has gotten! Just subscribed!!!
I got my lips done at a clinic in a shopping centre in Australia (they’re everywhere) and the person that did them was a registered nurse. Before the injection was done she had to facetime either another nurse or a doctor (can’t quite remember) and I had to speak to them and confirm i knew the risks and what to do if something went wrong, they also made sure to check my allergies and, because I’m allergic to bees, let me know that they have everything they’d need medically on site incase of any negative reactions (dissolver contains bee venom). I couldn’t imagine just rocking up to some persons house/lash place and be chill with them sticking my face without all of that protocol 😬
Omg facetiming a colleague to ask something is so sketch tho
@@cupid3890 it wasn’t to ask something. It was a requirement that I speak to this other nurse/doctor (I’m thinking now that it was a doctor) as a final step before proceeding with the procedure.
@@cupid3890 reading properly is fundamental
Also medical professionals always consult or verify with a colleague depending in the situation, that's called being professional and ensuring patient safety....I would be damned if my midwives never verified with each other the proper protocols to manage my high blood pressure if it came up after birth. I would expect nurses to always verify something before proceeding even though that's not the case here.
Is the cosmetic surgery industry in Australia good? Would you recommend it as a country to get cosmetic surgery????
Great video! All these unlicensed "techs" are insane! One thing I noticed - (I have a Msc in Medical Microbiology.) When you were showing her reel, 1st she used hand sanitizer before gloves which is not enough! Soap and water are standard, sanitizer only if no water is available. Then after she put the gloves on, she was just touching all of the equipment and cotton pads - which I am assuming are not sterile either considering everything else. Nothing appears to be single use or had been autoclaved. Or even wiped with an alcohol wipe. I'd be surprised if she HASN'T given someone an infection, honestly.
yk damn well theses “injectors” don’t know what an autoclave is lmao
@@yerb1969 LMAO 🤣
@isabellaLanter Omg I had a horrible experience I went to a board certified dr to have lip filler and ended up with necrosis, strokes and seizures!! If even board certified physicians can make mistakes and have things like this happen then no one else should be doing it at all!! That girl is out here playing with peoples lives.. and the sad thing is no one knows how dangerous it really is to get lip filer I know I didn’t my sister talked me into and I had no idea it could be dangerous. I appreciate you bringing light to this & I hope that girl is held accountable.. lord knows my dr wasn’t and I still have medical bills due to it.
Complications like necrosis can happen even in the most skilled medical providers hands and it is not necessarily a “mistake” on the providers fault. Also, how did you not know of how dangerous it is as there are waiver forms with potential complications you need to sign off on. This can happen from the best doctors much less an untrained medical professional. Sorry that happened to you and ya’ll be safe out there.
This wasn’t a complication we later found out I wasn’t the only one this provider done this to. There was no waiver, there was a form that I had to fill out that asked personal info but there was no waiver or anything I had to sign. & while your correct it could be a complication most of the time it is because they injected in the wrong area
inadvertent arterial injection is not a “complication” it’s a “mistake” but thanks 😂
So she's charging $1.50 tax on $490? Has anyone called the IRS?
You're an angel for putting this kind of info up. I watched this out of curiosity because I'm not into this sort of stuff, but I appreciated the message, because I know there are some innocent people out there that are vulnerable, and need to hear it.
Contra-indictations (she forgot the dash) are things that prevent us from performing services, like an open wound for example!
Also as a cosmetologist you can not be lash extensions certified unless you’re a LICENSED cosmetologist or a licensed esthetician. No nail tech or just anyone can get the certification if you do you do not have the right training and whoever accepted you licensed or not should be reported to state.
As a nurse, all of this is so terrible and scary to see happening. Sadly, people are also doing the same with ozempic (and similar) injections. Extremely dangerous
I practically had to be wrestled down by my dentist and her assistant while they injected local anesthesia directly into my gums so I coud get a very necessary root canal. Mind you, I get *ANXIOUS* going to the dentist BUT I still went because 1) I risked losing my front tooth, and 2) she was a professional with a degree and legit medical supplies. I can't imagine an unlicensed anyone jamming a needle into my lips and injecting something she bought online.
Ha. Same. I need a 'responsible adult' to attend my appointment with me. I'm 29... 😂
She limited her Instagram comments. ☠️
“that’s a big word for elmo” knocked me OUT
I agree w you, girl. I don't think you need any lip filler! I'm almost 40 and love my lips! No shame if you get filler or any procedure(s) though. Love your body, however that looks! ♡ Just be safe out there!!!!
Thank you for your help Isabella! Thank you for getting the word out❤
omg heyyy!! thank you so so much for sharing!! I so appreciate this!
Giiirl how are people so confident?! Or stupid should I say.. I've done my own manicure for years and my family always want me to do their nails too and I've never once touched their nails in fear of causing an infection or sth. THESE PEOPLE ARE INJECTING WITH NEEDLES!!
Be super careful before having someone inject something in your body. Absolutely a hard no from me
thank you for bringing awareness about this. i literally just went to ig to report her account as it should be stopped. literally still going on tours, and saw on her story that people just literally got their lips done by her! gosh, the audacity
My FIL is a plastic surgeon and these at-home “injectors” have caused tons of issues. Putting your life at risk to save $100 is crazy 😭
Aloha Love!! Was just thinking, in 10 months Ryan saw 3 people - she's not the only injector besides the unlicensed so if she saw 3 we don't know how many could've gone straight to the hospital, their regular Dr.'s or other spa places 2 seek help 2... Now that's scary 2 think about!!
Mahalo 4 all the work u do & the time u take 2 educate/inform us w/videos like these!! Keep up the amazing job!! Stay blessed!! Aloha!!
I’m a medical assistant and I went through the additional certification process for injections while I was working as a pharmacy technician but I wouldn’t want to train unlicensed individuals to inject themselves let alone anyone else unless they’re diabetic or an epipen user. So many things can and will go wrong if an unlicensed individual without epipen or diabetic injection knowledge attempts to inject another individual. Not to mention the Good Samaritan law has a ton of gray area when doing so in situations where a person with an epipen or diabetic person becomes unresponsive. Please get the proper training through the AHA, Red Cross or other Agencies certified in training individuals how to properly perform said injections. I’ve seen all kinds of things go wrong and after a certain point if a bad injection occurs there are risks of injury, infection, sepsis, and in extreme cases death… especially if you don’t know the proper amount to inject, areas appropriate to inject, etc.
yeah i do weekly subcutaneous injections on myself and do not feel even remotely qualified to touch anyone else
@@samuelengesvik2815that’s completely understandable in my training to even get my medical assistant degree and license there were multiple lab courses where we learned to inject ourselves and one another (with saline). Injecting myself was a little more difficult since my right hand is more steady than my left but finding the right angle for all injection types (SUBQ, IM, and IV) was really dependent on a few things how much fat I had on my arms at the time, focus levels, fluid intake, etc. When you inject yourself I feel like it’s easier to be mindful of those things but when injecting other people you have to ask a ton of questions before you start the process especially if it’s the first time you’ve seen someone. Plus a lot of people who are needle phobic will not tell you 😅
Girl you are GLOWINGG I love the makeup
omg thank you so much!!!!
As a Canadian I cannot fathom that you poor things can't just go to the hospital in an emergency for free and be treated that is such a human right violation it blows my dang mind. The amount of times a walk in has been closed and I have had to take my sick child in to be looked at, if I had to pay for that there is no question he would be dead. I don't know how y'all can do it.
most states have healthcare expanded to cover children, as well as dental. Until they are 18 or 22 yrs old. its just once u hit that age u are on ur on
@@MisseryMoth I'm glad to hear that you are offered something for children. However I do still think healthcare should be just a right as a citizen of a first world country.
If you had to pay he would be dead? You would rather have a dead child than being in debt?!
@@aduckofsomesort we don't have any credit or family to help cosign for a loan so yes. He has autism so anytime he has a sore throat he won't eat or drink and needs iv liquids, so yes actually.
More social programs (like socialized medicine) require higher taxes. So far, Americans have voted that down.
Between this and the veneers you are doing Gods work girl - keep up the good work.
I haven’t had any fillers Botox etc, but ladies please be careful with where you go for anything. Sepsis and bacterium can be dangerous or fatal. If the injector isn’t certified and uses a needle contaminated with bacteria or if she wrongly injects, the outcome can be life altering. If you’ve really thought about going ahead with a procedure, make sure it’s properly adminstered
Isabella, I don't know if you ever looked into the Coolsculpt lawsuit. Bassically Linda Evangelista sued them for disfiguring her and iirc they settled. I followed the whole case, it was really upsetting to see people hate on Linda for being "vain" as if coolsculpt wasn't always advertised as super safe... From what I gathered they didn't care to give estheticians enough hours of training, which resulted in the machine being used incorrectly. Instead of fat getting "frozen" as advertised, for example the machine was kept on one area for too long and people would end up with chunks of solidified fat under skin. So like you're getting lipedema instead of "safe" lipo :(
I didn't follow her case but I have read some horror stories about Cool Sculpting. It's scary to see their services still being advertised. You should hear the things I say back to the TV (lol) when one of their commercials pop up. Even if they offered to do it for free I still wouldn't take them up on it. I'll happily keep my excess fat... lol
I know someone who was also disfigured by coolsculpt as well 😟 in the arms
Thank u for sharing this. I was thinking of getting it
“That’s a big word for Elmo” 😂 never not gonna be able to think that when I’m trippin over a word from now on
This is truly truly insane. In Texas, you actually don’t have to have any type of medical license to do injections including Botox which literally paralyzes muscles. These people have zero knowledge of anatomy, physiology, medications, dosages, how to reconstitute, aseptic technique, infection/ complication protocols, etc. and are learning in a 1 or 2 day course how to perform what is technically a medical procedure. Lash artists, nail techs, your neighborhood 18 year old, etc are all being certified, & it’s insane. Then they create a “course” or training and start teaching other unqualified people as well as a way to make money! The fact that they offer “vendors” for the filler shows that they aren’t using actual FDA approved, medical-grade products because only a few companies create these fillers and they won’t ship them to a house. They will only ship them to business addresses like a medspa or doctors office, so you know they are injecting people with whatever they can order on alibaba and Amazon which is how they are able to perform these procedures for such a cheap price.
Stay safe people! Make sure your injector is a qualified RN, NP, PA, or MD!
good ol texas yeehaw, i want to get a tattoo artist apprenticeship eventually because it’s my dream to become a tattoo artist and that was literally the first red flag i noticed. blood borne pathogen courses and a license to operate aren’t required by texas bylaw which is stupid, they don’t even have any regulations on sterilizing studio spaces. oh god i just saw the lashedbylagorgeous clip girl not the porous surfaces that’s a cesspit for germs and diseases, no fabrics no fuzzy things you need disposable paper bed sheets and cling wrap to make sure the patients bed space is sterile ughhhh
You’re videos are just my favourite thing, I love how educated and informative they are. The effort you put in really show. I appreciate you and sending s much love 🤍
Thank you for this informative video!! I’ve been getting my lips done for a while now, and I ONLY go to a licensed practitioner that is board certified to practice fillers in a medical spa setting. A few years ago, I had an appointment scheduled to get my lip fillers at this “medical spa” but thankfully I read reviews before going since it was a place I’ve never been to before. There were several reviews stating that they were going to take legal actions because the injector was just a licensed esthetician and a “certified injector” NOT a licensed medical practitioner. They had terrible reactions to whatever this certified injector injected into their lips. Please be aware of who you are trusting to inject in your body. Very scary situation that I almost got myself into! Phew! So glad I avoided that but it makes me sad for the people that had those terrible experiences.
The way the patients flinch. Yikes
Bella, I wanted to comment again because I've been watching your videos now for at least 2 years. THANK YOU for your time and energy to make us aware of situations like this, I know this is what you do but thank you from all of us. more people need to have their stories shared, TikTok especially is so bad with removing videos for "violations" but the videos are actual FACTUAL information and still get removed somehow. you are a light to this dark world and we thank you so much ❤❤❤❤❤ every single video you post is truly gold.
She goes by soofaced now on tiktok. She is still doing fillers. She does not have it disclosed ANYWHERE what/where her licenses are, that she can legally do any kind of injection or filler. I don't want this to start a witch hunt, just wanna keep people out of the hospital
Huge red flag when the “educational” graphic at 0:53 about Microneedling vs Hyaluron pen had incomplete and botched sentences. If I have to guess at what you’re trying to say because you’re missing half the sentence, I’m not trusting you to teach me shit.
You’re so real for putting those resources in your video. Subbing you for that.
This is wild af, why our healthcare system needs improvement across the board. Yes I know cosmetic isn’t covered but if it affects your quality of life is an exception.
Listen, if you want cosmetic stuff done, more power to you. But if you can’t afford medical insurance, you can’t afford cosmetic procedures, especially “cheap” ones.
I hope anyone considering getting these procedures sees this video and does lots of research. I get self conscious about stuff and have seen some too good to be true ads for these fillers on Instagram. Don’t let that insecurity get to you to the point that your health and safety is put at risk from someone selling lies. 💜
Good luck getting those assistance from hospitals. Also hospitals are NOT ashamed of their prices. Ask for the itemized receipt but the cost doesn’t change. That “trick” has never worked for me… they aren’t ashamed to charge for gloves or whatever you think there gonna knock off the price…
Anyway take heed. Go to the hospital just know that depending on your income bracket they will tell you how much you owe monthly and if you try to argue they’ll just send you to collections. This happened with me :/ The monthly they told me? 350$ a month. I was living paycheck to paycheck and sometimes putting off necessary bills. Income bracket isn’t everything, and the standard for “poverty” has stayed the same even though the threshold for what constitutes poverty HAS NEEDED to be raised for YEARS.
As someone who gets injectables, my biggest advice is if it’s to cheap don’t do it, and do research and never get pen lip filler
15:13 Contra-indications . It's basically reasons why you shouldn't do these things because it would cause harm to the client.
I recently came across your page and I love what you’re about! I love your message. I appreciate you including the part about applying for medical debt being paid through hospital donations. Like wow. That could really save someone so much suffering
Honestly at this point I’m tired and don’t feel all that bad for these people.
If you as a full-blown adult think letting Veneers By Vanessa handle your teeth or another random inject you is a good idea then so be it.
I subscribed to your channel. I loved that you still encourage to go to the hospital without insurance. You gave clear explanations and reasons to do so, and you researched. You really care about your audience and for that I subbed. Keep up the wonderful work, and thanku! 😊
Lol, that elmo line was hilarious! The word phonetically spelled is kahn-truh-in-duh-kay-shuns(contraindications)
I'm sorry but "that's a big word for Elmo" freaking killed me 🤣
beauty standards be damned, this is crazy!!!
This has been going on for years. There was a lady on RUclips that was instructing people to do this online. She was eventually taken down. I think she has her own app now. She didn’t say to do it on others but this was more for people to do it on themselves.
Miss Isa, there's another drama in Tik Tok over consumption, now people are obsessed with mini Tote Bags, they're now the new Stanley Cups. Do a video of it, they're taking over the stores and even doing lines for it 😭
Sharing this video everywhere because it is SO important!
9:37 this is how i see every girl w lip injections 😮
***giant ducklips that look unnatural and alien-like
I’m honestly a bit shocked at the idea of getting lip fillers when you don’t have medical insurance
unfortunately these things like fillers, veneers, lashes, nails, etc.. are luxuries and they are luxuries for a reason. I understand the social pressure to have all these things, but you need to pay the premium to get them done by a professional. I've gone without getting my hair, lashes and nails done when I needed to save money. the whole "high maintenance to be low maintenance" trend is not a realistic lifestyle for most people
Im sorry but getting shady lip injections and having no health insurance is kind of crazy. Just shows where some peoples priorities are
I'm already just weirded out with some places that advertise lip injections... this proves all my fears 😬
Hi! Nursing student here. In the state of Utah you have to be a registered nurse!! You have to work under an NP/doc
