Fake beauty doctor in Khon Kaen is 24 year old unqualified quack

 

Picture: Daily News

 

KHON KAEN: -- A pretty 24 year old woman in Khon Kaen was treating hundreds of locals who wanted to look just like her.

 

Little did they know that "Dr Waew Dao" was just a fake - and her Botox parlor had no license, reports Daily News.

 

Two or three dozen patrons were being treated a day at the house near the park in Sri Nual Road.

 

When police and health department authorities raided yesterday there were five hopeful teenagers waiting for treatment. They had heard about the clinic on Facebook.

 

Dr Waew Dao - real name Natthaya Amphaipornkarnkun - had been operating for 2-3 years without qualifications or licenses. Some of her family members were helping out too.

 

There were plenty of drugs, fillers, supplements and of course Botox on hand as evidence.

 

Natthaya said she had worked in a clinic before and learnt the tricks of being a doctor on the internet.

 

She was charged with several offences related to drugs and giving surgical treatments without authorization.

Anything not fake over here ?

The same story repeats all over Thailand in every profession, I learned how to do something from my previous employer and from the internet so I started my own business

(practising as an expert), every profession in every town, beware.

I know of a girl who operates a pharmacy and she has never been to university.

....treating hundreds of locals who wanted to look just like her.
Beauty is relative and in the eye of the beholder.
I do not find she looks pretty at all.

Maybe she was a "natural" doctor, in bred skills an all

I know of a girl who operates a pharmacy and she has never been to university.

Guess that explains why I get three different medications every time I go to the drugstore for the same symptoms.

Yes, old expats! 100% guaranteed down right jaded and pessimistic.

"learnt the tricks of being a doctor on the internet."

 

 

Oh my.  I wonder how many other 'doctors' (especially at these mall and street corner clinics) learned their 'tricks of being a doctor' on the internet?

 

You can trust nothing and no one in Thailand.
 

After extended research in the health industry in Thailand, I only see a doctor here when it is broken, won't stop bleeding, or falls off.

This one is a bit tricky... you can own a pharmacy, and not be a pharmacist.  

2 to 3 dozen patients a day?  Are they sure on those figures?  Given the price of botox injections at proper clinics, she would have been making an absolute fortune.  Clinics charge anywhere between 9,000 and 12,000 baht for this.  Say she went on the lower side and charged 9,000 per patient x 24 patients = 216,000 baht per day.  Really?

All you need is a gallon of white paint, a white coat, a stethoscope, and a quick trip to Khaosan Road for the "Official Document", all easily obtainable, and you are in business :)

Back in the very early 80,s there was a "doctor" on Soi Post Office who was doing breast enhancement surgery using contraceptives filled with tap water ! Long gone before the merde hit the phatlom.

The same with opticians. To own an optician shop and call themselves an optician, no qualifications required. 

 

Same applies with electricians, mechanical engineers and even local vets.

after a few weeks n a few fines paid, business as usual..

She be relocating to a town near you soon TIT

Very common, the required pharmacist is usually a family member and just happens to be elsewhere at the moment.

Say she went on the lower side for 2 years (around 700 days) =
216.000 x 700 = 151.200.000 Baht
If so, she is a very big fish.
She paid taxes also?
If not, there is a lot of money in it.

I can remember that, even years later, mid 90's there was a case where someone almost died when they burst.

Any old Brits, like me, remember a cartoon strip called The Perishers.

One character was a Bloodhound called BH. Calcutta Failed. I was meeting engineers on projects out here that fitted.

Not that different.

"Maybe she's really a chiroquackter". In her previous life she was a real doctor.

It's sad...seems like most customers was really young and found her practice on Facebook.
2 questions , why the <deleted> would you need a treatment to eradicate wrinkles...even I had none before the mid twenties !
And, low estimate 9 k bht / treatment and very young.... weekly allowance maybe ?
Would be interesting to find out the income bracket of the teenagers parents.
Back in the days the word "pretty" carried a positive vibe.. now it seems to have been downgraded to implicate airhead

Profanity removed.

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder...........

Where's the crime in being a fake beauty doctor?  Fake beauties have just as much right to be treated as anyone else.  

 

(And, anyone who visits any sort of "beauty doctor" is a fake beauty, in my opinion).

 

(And, also, is an unqualified quack better or worse than a qualified quack?)
