From Animals To Aesthetics: Egyptian Vet Exposed For Performing Illegal Beauty Procedures
The man, identified as Ahmed Atta Ahmed Ali, a veterinarian by profession working with an agricultural contracting company, was caught red-handed by the General Department of Criminal Investigations under the Hawally Governorate. According to officials, he had been impersonating a cosmetic surgeon and operating without any medical license in a salon illegally converted into a cosmetic clinic. Security forces raided the premises and arrested the suspect at the scene, where he confessed to injecting cosmetic fillers for KD 50 per session—despite having no official qualifications or license from medical authorities
During the operation, investigators seized a range of unauthorized medical and cosmetic equipment, including injections, unlicensed substances, a medical-grade laser device, and other tools typically used in certified clinics. Three women (two Egyptians and one Kenyan) were also apprehended for assisting in the unauthorized cosmetic treatments.
Further investigations revealed that the salon is owned by Sahar Hatem Muhammad Saadawi, a woman whose Kuwaiti citizenship was recently revoked but is currently treated as a Kuwaiti under Article 8. Authorities discovered she is allegedly operating a network of six unlicensed salons and women's health centers, posing a serious risk to public health.
The Ministry of Interior has confirmed that legal action is underway, and the case has been referred to the proper authorities for further proceedings.
