The Civil Guard in Spain is investigating a woman who falsely presented herself as a doctor and conducted hundreds of unauthorized aesthetic procedures across various centers in the Valencia province and occasionally at her own home. This investigation follows a report made by a legitimate health professional in March, who raised concerns about her activities in a hair salon based in Sueca, Valencia. The allegations cite a lack of health regulations and the absence of legal qualifications necessary for such medical interventions.

The range of treatments offered by the suspect included popular cosmetic procedures such as lip fillers, cheek enhancements, Botox injections for wrinkles between the eyebrows, and treatments for crow's feet, all of which are typically performed by licensed professionals. As the inquiry unfolds, authorities are focusing on both the potential health risks to clients and the impact this case could have on public trust in medical aesthetics. It raises significant questions about the regulation of aesthetic treatments and the enforcement of health regulations in Spain.

Additionally, while this investigation occurs, authorities have also apprehended a fugitive from Belgium who allegedly attempted to evade compensation payments to a victim of her fraud by emptying her home to declare herself insolvent. These overlapping cases highlight the need for vigilance in monitoring individuals providing medical services to ensure compliance with legal standards and to protect the public from unqualified practitioners.
