This can include improper injection techniques, using counterfeit products, or failing to follow health and safety standards.

✔ Use of unregulated or expired products, increasing the risk of adverse reactions.
✔ Inadequate hygiene standards, leading to infections.
✔ Failure to inform about risks, leaving patients unaware of potential side effects.
✔ Excessive swelling, bruising, or lumps, requiring corrective treatment.
