Thai women are beautiful on that we can all agree so it is perhaps surprising the lengths, expense and medical procedures they often put themselves through to enhance their natural beauty. In particular they seem to suffer from obsessions about the whiteness or lack of whiteness of their skin.
Beauty shops and skin clinics abound. Unfortunately they use non regulated products and un-licenced beuticians to perform their miracle and expensive skin whitening cures. This draws the attention of the authorities who can always find a new clinic to raid or a repeat offender to raid one more time.
The latter was the case that Chonburi Provincial Health officials along with Chonburi police officers decided to persue with a raid on a beauty clinic in SeamSuk District of Chonburi whose owner Nittaya was a serial skin offender.
On the premises they found beauty and skin whitening concoctions that had been illegally imported into Thailand along with cosmetics that were incorrectly labled and medical devices used in the operation of these beauty intensifying procedures.
So be warned being in possession of illegal skin whitening products could bring down the full force of the Thai authorities with large fines and up to 5 years in prison. Now that could ruin any young ladies complextion for sure.
