Beauty salon in a butcher’s shop where women were ‘disfigured’ exposes terrifying legal loophole allowing ANYONE to perform surgery

Gruesome details have emerged from a London-based beauty salon that performed a botched liposuction that reportedly left several women ‘injured and disfigured’.

One woman is said to have been hospitalized after the instrument used during the procedure ‘struck’ one of her internal organs.

Another former customer recalled noticing “blood splattered all over the walls” when she visited the property, and cotton swabs lying around that still had blood from the previous person on them.

Campaigners have warned that these shocking findings expose an alarming loophole in British law that they have long highlighted, allowing cowboy beauticians to carry out operations without medical qualifications.

Under British law, it is not even illegal for non-medical professionals to perform surgery, as long as the person performing the surgery does not claim to be a surgeon and the client consents.

Supervisory bodies such as the General Medical Council and the Healthcare Quality Commission cannot prosecute or ‘debar’ beauticians.

Ashton Collins of Save Face, a charity that helps victims of botched cosmetic surgery, told MailOnline rogue beauticians could ‘technically’ be charged with assault for injuring a client.

“But it’s a struggle to get the police to take these things seriously,” she said. ‘Most police forces adopt the attitude of; you agreed to the procedure, it is your own fault.”

Daria Barbara Wisniewska is one of the owners of Luxury Medical Aesthetics and Academy, which used a suction machine to suck fat from a woman’s chin.

Clips from the establishment’s Instagram profile page show the estheticians injecting what appears to be filler into a patient’s face.

Details about the London establishment emerged after a customer was so ‘shocked’ by what she saw during an appointment that she contacted the BBC.

Sarah Guy, a beautician from South Wales, told the broadcaster she paid £1,500 to the clinic, called Luxury Medical Aesthetics and Academy, for a ‘one-day fat reduction masterclass’.

She was enticed by ads on Instagram offering training in a new type of fat-dissolving procedure called Lipolysis.

Also called ‘fat-sculpting’, lipolysis is a minimally invasive procedure in which fat cells are broken down using lasers, injections or a cold probe that ‘freezes’ the tissue.

But videos taken by Ms Guy during the training session – and shared with the BBC – do not show a typical lipolysis procedure.

Ms Wisniewska then makes a small hole in the area with a scalpel, before inserting a long cannula attached to a suction machine. Then her starts to suck away fat.

Ms Guy said the same method was used on the chin of another model and on the stomach of a third woman.

Ms Collins of Save Face, which is supporting those who say they have been injured by Luxury Medical Aesthetics, said the women were told they were receiving a non-surgical fat-dissolving treatment and not liposuction.

She said: ‘It’s not until they’re anesthetized and they see the actual device coming out and feeling it pricking their skin that they realize what’s really going on.’

Sarah Guy passed the training and received a certificate from Luxury Medical Aesthetics, despite refusing to perform procedures on the models.

Salon owners Daria and Monika Wisniewska did not respond to the BBC’s messages about the complaints.

It comes after Britain saw its first death from the deadly Brazilian Butt Lift procedure.

In September it was revealed that 33-year-old mother-of-five Alice Webb had died after undergoing the bum-boosting treatment, believed to have been carried out in the West Country.

Gloucestershire Police confirmed they were investigating the death and arrested two people on suspicion of manslaughter.

According to a report published in July by Save Face, there has been an ‘alarming increase in the number of patient-reported complaints regarding non-surgical breast augmentation and BBLs’.

According to the report, more than half have led to serious and life-threatening complications, including sepsis, abscesses and infections.

There are two main types of Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedures, and both are considered fatal.

The most well-known is the surgical form, in which fat is transferred from other parts of the body, such as the hips or abdomen, to give patients a fuller derriere.

But it is extremely risky – the risk of death is 1 in 15,000 – because sUrons can accidentally inject the fat into the bloodstream, causing a potentially fatal blood clot.

It is thought Ms Webb has undergone a liquid BBL, which involves injecting fillers into the buttocks to increase volume.

Unlike facial fillers, which are performed to plump the lips or cheeks, where complications can be resolved by skilled injectors, these procedures often require a hospital environment, intravenous medications, and surgical procedures to correct.

A Save Face survey of more than 2,200 healthcare professionals who practice aesthetic medicine also found that 98 percent of them said they would not offer liquid BBLs due to the “high risk of multiple complications.”
