Undercover officers scheduled an appointment with Beltran-Garces and met with him Wednesday, where police said he gave them a consultation for Botox injections before establishing and agreeing upon a price for the procedure.
Investigators said it was after Beltran-Garces left the room and returned to prepare for the procedure with a vial labeled Botox that they placed him under arrest.
According to an arrest form, Beltran-Garces admitted that he was not licensed to practice medicine in the state of Florida.
He is now facing multiple felony charges.
