HOUSTON – It happened again in Harris County: another person was arrested for alleged illegal medical practices.
Specifically for carrying out alleged cosmetic work by injecting a substance that could be Botox into several patients.
Dustin Moore also known as “Mr. Injectable” was arrested at the clinic where he worked, court documents indicate that, in February 2024, Moore allegedly used a medical syringe to apply an unknown substance not approved by the FDA, on a woman’s buttocks, something similar to Botox.
They also point him out for not being a medical professional authorized or certified to perform this procedure.
The accused has a criminal history for similar cases, since at least three women have accused him of the same crime. It is believed that there could be more victims.
Moore faces three criminal counts of causing bodily harm by unlicensed medical practice and one count of aggravated assault.
In 2006, he was charged with theft between $30,000 and $150,000, assault with intent to stop a family member from breathing, and driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
The judge imposed a bond of $140,000 on the four charges, and some of his conditions are that he cannot perform medical procedures and must not have contact with the people who made the complaint. Moore remains in the Harris County jail.
How to check if it is a professional doctor?
The website of the Texas Medical Board or of Texas Department of Licensing and Regulationhave a section to check if the medical service provider is registered and licensed to practice this profession.
Dustin Moore, does not appear in the system.
If you believe you are among the suspect’s victims, you can call 713-308-3100.
