A Los Angeles man who allegedly performed cosmetic surgery on a woman without a medical license has been charged with assault and impersonating a doctor, the District Attorney's Office announced today.

He was arrested last Thursday by D.A.'s Office investigators, and he was released Friday on $150,000 bond, according to prosecutors and jail records.

Prosecutors said that on July 13, 2021, he performed "an unlicensed cosmetic surgery'' on a woman. Ten days later, he treated the woman for infections that developed due to the surgery.

On Aug. 13, 2021, he treated the woman again for additional surgical complications, according to the District Attorney's Office.

He was charged with one count of assault with a deadly weapon, one count of battery with serious injury and six counts of practicing medicine without a certification.
