@savefaceuk: Suspected botulism cases in Leeds linked to cosmetic counterfeit Botox are a stark warning about the dangers of fake and illegally supplied injectables. In this BBC interview, Save Face Director Ashton Collins explains: ✔️ How counterfeit and illegally sourced Botox is entering the UK ✔️ Why treatments without a valid prescription or face‑to‑face consultation put patients at serious risk ✔️ What to look out for to stay safe when considering anti‑wrinkle injections At Save Face, we’ve long campaigned for stronger enforcement against unlawful providers. In the last five years, over a third of Botox‑related complaints we’ve received involved suspected counterfeit products. Patients seeking anti‑wrinkle injections should use the Save Face register to find accredited, verified healthcare professionals. As part of Save Face accreditation, we verify that products are legitimately prescribed, licensed for use in the UK, and sourced from regulated pharmacies. #fakebotox #botulism #PatientSafety #medicalaesthetics #saveface
