Manage episode 520202106 series 3696207
Why are RF microneedling lawsuits piling up against one specific device?
The FDA dropped several safety alerts recently. If you're getting Botox, fillers, or skin tightening treatments, you need to hear this. Dr. Dee was doing research for a potential podcast guest when something didn't add up.
Dr. Dee has performed thousands of RF microneedling treatments over 10 years without seeing the burns, scarring, and fat loss the FDA is warning about. But when she looked into the lawsuits, she found something that explains everything.
Chapters:

00:08:06 – Counterfeit Botox
00:14:28 – Fake doctors and credential fraud
Close to a dozen people were hospitalized with botulism last year. The FDA just went after the websites selling fake injectables. Learn why some providers genuinely don't know they're breaking the law. Dr. Dee explains how this is possible and what it means for anyone walking into a med spa right now.
The fake doctor story ties it all together. When you hear how easy it was for this person to fool patients, you'll understand why asking the right questions matters more than trusting a fancy website or impressive-sounding title.
Listen and learn what Dr. Dee discovered that changes how you evaluate every med spa.
