BOCA RATON , Fla. June 22 2013 -- A local woman is now behind bars after investigators say she performed Botox injections without a license. She's accused of practicing without a license for a second time, and you won't believe how she got caught.
Sheri Heller Goldman was arrested and charged with providing Botox without a license out of her Boca Raton office.
Goldman's business Beauty and Balance Aesthetic Skin Solutions claims on its website that Goldman has 30-years experience as a surgical nurse. Turns out, health officials say that's a lie.
After posting Botox deals on Groupon, a customer looked up Goldman and found she had been arrested before. Goldman was charged last year for practicing medicine without a license.
The Department of Health investigated the allegations, and in coordination with the Boca Raton Police Department set up a sting with an undercover agent looking to get Botox treatments.
Goldman is in jail officially charged for unlicensed practice of a health care professional, practicing nursing without a license, and violating her probation.
CBS12 has reached out to Groupon for comment on their vetting policies. So far no comment from the discount website.
