The College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia has applied for a court injunction against two sisters, alleging they illegally performed cosmetic injections that left a woman with lasting deformities.
Filed earlier this month in B.C. Supreme Court, the petition accuses Bimaljeet Kaur Virk and Rajan Kaur Virk of running an unauthorized medical practice in breach of the province’s Health Professions Act. The filing stresses that only licensed registrants are permitted to practice medicine, including administering cosmetic procedures such as botulinum toxin or dermal filler injections.
The allegations stem from a complaint by a woman who said she contacted the sisters via Instagram in October 2024 and paid $15,800 for body contouring. According to the petition, Rajan advised her to deceive a doctor into prescribing antibiotics by claiming she had a toothache.
On Oct. 19, the woman allegedly received 2,200 milliliters of a filler called “Avanescence.” Days later, a “blood-tinged gelatinous fluid” began leaking from one of the injection sites. The petition says Rajan suggested using medical-grade glue, and when the complainant could not obtain any, arranged for super glue to be delivered through UberEats
The woman later experienced similar complications at two more injection sites and required hospital care. A physician at St. Paul’s Hospital reportedly told her the leaking fluid was filler and necrotic tissue. She eventually recovered, but was left with scarring and deformities that may need corrective treatment.
The College argues the Virk sisters’ actions warrant condemnation and is asking the court to prohibit them from practicing medicine or performing elective cosmetic procedures without registration.
The allegations have not been proven in court. The sisters have not yet responded to the petition, and CTV News was unable to reach them for comment. The College said it cannot discuss the case while it is before the courts but directed the public to information on the risks of unlicensed practitioners on its website.
