 A 63-year-old woman who wanted to look younger almost died when she was injected with fake Botox.

Marcelle King, from Poole, Dorset, England, saw an advert on Facebook for the Botox injection and a simple treatment in west London.She drove to what she assumed would be a clinic, only to end up arriving at a house, reports Liverpool Echo.

Marcelle said: "This guy turned up and I saw he'd driven up in a brand new BMW and that gave me no cause for concern. The only question I asked him was if he was going to use those fine needles like I've seen on TV. And he held up what looked like a dog vaccination needle to me and said no these are better."

The man, named Ozan Melin, proceeded to inject Marcelle, who paid him £300 for the procedure. Rather than achieve the expected result, Marcelle noticed that there was "no change whatsoever" after two days. So, two weeks later she booked in again.

Marcelle said: "Round two was excruciatingly painful, he did say 'I don't dilute as recommended because it works quicker. It was like being burnt with cigarette ends and at one point I put my hand up and said I can't take any more. I gave him another £100 and I actually couldn't wait to get out of there because I could feel my forehead really burning."
