2024: Plastic surgery clinics in the Philippines make criminals new faces
In mid-July 2024, it was revealed that clandestine clinics in the Philippines offer plastic surgery services to fugitives and workers at rogue centers to help them avoid arrest. Two such illegal clinics will be closed following a police search in May 2024.
During a search in a hospital in Pasay, hair transplantation tools, dental implants and droppers with skin whitening drugs were seized.
 | With such tools and materials, surgeons are able to create a completely new person, "said Winston John Casio, representative of the Philippine Presidential Commission to Combat Organized Crime. |  |
According to authorities, two more illegal hospitals are under police supervision, four times the size of the clinic in the city of Pasay. Among the clients of these clinics, Casio said, there are allegedly representatives of online casinos that operate illegally in the Philippines. These online casinos or Pogos cater to gamblers in mainland China, where gambling is illegal. However, police allege the casinos were used as cover for criminal activities such as phone fraud and human trafficking.
Three doctors were arrested in the Pasay raid - two from Vietnam and one from China, a Chinese pharmacist and a Vietnamese nurse. None were licensed to operate in the Philippines. Authorities also found an unregistered hemodialysis machine, suggesting the facility offered other medical procedures in addition to plastic surgery. The police note that such clinics do not request identity cards and serve any people who are ready to pay for the operation.[1]
