Natasha Singer writes for the NYT:

Five years ago Ms. Sepulveda said she paid $2,000 for a series of 10 injections from María Collado, a cosmetologist who had an office in Hialeah. Ms. Sepulveda said she believed the woman was a dermatologist who was licensed in the Dominican Republic. After the injections Ms. Sepulveda's face became swollen and her lips developed irregular lumps, she said. Ms. Sepulveda's sister, Thelma Vásquez, who had her buttocks injected by the same practitioner, developed lesions and pus-filled sores.
