Authorities arrested a woman in Sharjah for offering unlicensed cosmetic treatments that contained fatal and unidentified chemicals.
The Asian woman was caught red handed after the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Interior and Sharjah Police arranged a decoy client to request for cosmetic treatment at a Sharjah hotel.
"We received a number of complaints against an unlicensed woman who carried out cosmetic procedures for Gulf women, who were mainly tourists,” said Dr Amin Hussain Al Amiri, Assistant Undersecretary for Public Health Policy and Licensing Sector at the UAE Ministry of Health, who was quoted in Emarat Al Youm.
An investigation was launch and authorities discovered that large amounts of money was transferred to the bank account of the suspect’s husband, who owned the illegal business, according to a statement issued by the Ministry of Health.
Authorities then arranged for a Gulf woman to pose as a client and book an appointment with the suspect at a hotel in Sharjah
The Arabic daily also reported that a large amount of money was transferred in advance to the suspect’s bank account.
The suspect then laid out a large quantity of needs and injections that contained unidentified chemicals, and confessed that she was expecting a new shipment of products from Singapore soon.
Dr Al Amiri warned the public not to fall for deceptive ads that claim to offer cheap, easy cosmetic procedures and not to arrange for house calls from cosmeticians without receiving prior approval from the Ministry of Health
