Welcome to your one-minute dose of aesthetic enhancement news, today, August 18, 2024.
In Bangkok, a development unfolds as 39-year-old Jetiya Nakeesang faces arrest for running an illegal cosmetic filler injection service. The operation, revealed by Consumer Protection police commander Pol Maj Gen Withaya Sriprasertparp, was stationed in a hotel room located in the bustling Sukhumvit area.
Jetiya was caught red-handed recently. Inside the room, authorities found five syringes brimming with dubious filler substances. This arrest didn’t come out of the blue—it followed a serious complaint regarding a person impersonating a doctor and offering unauthorized vitamin, filler, and Botox injections. It appears Jetiya orchestrated these clandestine meetings through a Facebook account, relocating frequently between hotel rooms to sidestep law enforcement.
During the operation, police discovered Ms. Jetiya in the company of awaiting clients. Upon arrest, she confessed, revealing that her qualifications extended no further than a vocational school certificate and that her injection skills were taught by a doctor’s wife from Malaysia. Admitting to her motivations, Jetiya disclosed her attraction to the lucrative side of the beauty business, operating both in Thailand and Malaysia.
For approximately five years, Jetiya’s illicit trade garnered her a monthly income ranging from 20,000 to 40,000 baht. A significant figure that paints a stark portrait of the lengths individuals might go to in the pursuit of wealth in the aesthetic sector.
With this arrest, it’s a stark reminder of the importance of ensuring your aesthetic services provider is fully certified and operating within legal bounds. Stay safe and informed.
