'We were injecting by the afternoon... It seemed quite dangerous.' The ugly side of the beauty industry with substandard training, false advertising and intimidation

Another told us that she left the course with certificates stating her competency in procedures she had never even practised before.The sector forms part of the booming non-surgical cosmetic industry, which the government predicts will be worth £3.6bn by the end of this year.We've spoken to countless industry insiders who told of"appalling" experiences on training courses, which they say left them unable to practise safely.

It's this growth in the industry that makes it hard for students to tell the good courses from the bad. She thought the first day would be spent going over the relevant theory, learning about the anatomy of the face and safety procedures, followed by a day of supervised practical learning. "There was mess everywhere… the needle bin was overflowing. It felt like we were being used as cheap labour," she said.

In October last year, she went on a one-day course in filler and anti-wrinkle injections at foundation level. It meant that for some treatments, the students observed the mentors rather than doing the injections themselves."I don't think you should just be observing cheek filler and be allowed to say you're competent to go out and treat somebody."

Perfectly timed and great for any prospective ‘beauty’ patients to see this. I recently edited a documentary highlighting the unregulated aesthetics industry which aired a week ago directed by the amazing ashnilakhani. This really is an important topic.

Once you start on the slippery slope of cosmetic work such as this there is no turning back for fear of finding how you truly look. Best not go there in the first place.

Let's be honest here The women in LoveIsland don't help normal women feel good about themselves and that leads to unnecessary plastic surgery and other procedures that could be done by dodgy doctors and inexperienced beauticians

Serves them right, who thinks that having fish lips is attractive anyway.
