Cosmetic Treatments & Write-Offs

BBC Radio 5 Live - 5 Live Investigates, Cosmetic Treatments & Write-Offs

The cosmetic therapist accused of lying and the written-off cars returning to the roads.

The cosmetic therapist who claims to be a nurse but is absent from the nurses' register, and the cars written off after a crash and then being returned to the roads.

Cosmetic therapist Marie McGinty claims to be a registered nurse with additional training to prescribe drugs. But there's no record of her on the nurses' register. One of her clients says she suffered unsightly blemishes after she had dermal filler injected into her face. Also, are the insurance industry and DVLA doing enough to prevent cars that have been written off after a crash being returned to the road? These include cars that have experienced severe damage.
