Authorities in Greece have initiated investigations into the provision of unlicensed aesthetic and medical procedures. 

In Ioannina, the Medical Association has referred an Athens-based doctor to a disciplinary council following allegations of performing unauthorized aesthetic procedures at a local center. The doctor was reportedly not registered with the local Medical Association, and investigations involve audiovisual evidence and the National Organization for Medicines. 

In Palaio Faliro, the National Transparency Authority inspected a business following complaints about unauthorized injectable treatments, such as Botox. Inspectors found the premises lacked required signage and operating licenses. The individual promoting these services on social media was reportedly not registered as a physician or dentist with any Greek medical association.
