A practice manager has been charged with carrying out cosmetic procedures in a practice where she works despite being unqualified and unlicensed.<\/p>\n

The woman from Florida, USA is reported to have told a witness that she had seen the particular operation on many occasions.<\/p>\n

It seems that the patient\u2019s face had swollen during the previous day, but the practice manager decided to offer her own help as her brother, the actual surgeon was not available.<\/p>\n
