The Botox Doctor Bending Rules For Cash: Ellie Undercover

Investigative Journalist Ellie Flynn is on the trail of medics who may be wrongly providing botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox, and the beauticians who either don’t know the strict rules or are choosing to ignore them.
Researchers suggest that as many as 100,000 Botox injections are carried out each year in the UK, and campaigners report an astonishing trebling in botched treatments since 2016.

This is such an important topic that you've addressed, everyone who plans on getting botox (or any cosmetic surgery/treatments/ect) should be aware of the risks and whether or not the people who do these procedures are registered, credible professionals.

[@zuluzero4659]

More attention should be done on this to stop beauticians performing such things!

[@xbforbbidenjx9327]

I'm not going to lie im 17 and had both lip and chin filler done three times and was never asked for id, I just lied about my age and they took my word, although I never had any problems and they are actually a very well respected clinic and dentist who ARE licensed.

[@Selene666]

please see a real plastic surgeon, not a dentist, not a nurse, not anyone else!

[@MsCherryPop3]

No sympathy with people who do this to themselves.

[@fanbase4226]

MsCherryPop3 Of course you can say that. But this to me is isn't completely about the patients. This "doctor" shouldn't be able to do this period.

[@samn6498]

I was going to comment something similar, I completely agree

[@local8457]

MsCherryPop3 as a professional in this field i have to agree. you get what you pay for. if you are getting black market procedures for 1/2 the cost you can’t expect to get the same result. there is a reason why you have to be licensed to perform these treatments. any “discounted” filler is either fake or watered down dramatically.

[@equineeditsx6078]

Lmfao why tho? It ain't our fault. Yes we know that botox has side effects but you'll never get those side effects if it's done correctly by an actual doctor. Why are you so quick to judge people who get surgical procedures?
