MDSO deputies with the medical crimes squad had received an anonymous complaint from the Florida Department of Health accusing Arteaga-Villalina of practicing medicine without a license.<\/p>\n
After scheduling an appointment using social media, two undercover MDSO detectives met with Arteaga-Villalina at her apartment, who said 20 units of Botox were $300, according to the deputy\u2019s arrest report. <\/p>\n
Once Arteaga-Villalina was prepared to begin the procedure, an undercover detective performed a takedown signal at 1:50 p.m. on Monday, according to the deputy\u2019s arrest report. <\/p>\n
Miami-Dade corrections booked Arteaga-Villalina shortly after 6 p.m. on Monday at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center, according to inmate records. <\/p>\n
Arteaga-Villalina faced a charge of practicing a health care profession without a valid license, a third-degree felony in Florida, according to court records. Her bond was $5,000. <\/p>\n
Arteaga-Villalina, who was born in Venezuela, also had a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement hold, according to arrest and inmate records. <\/p>\n
