Moment surgically-enhanced Texas mother, Consuelo Dal Bo, and her daughter, Isabella, are arrested in sting 'after traveling across US to administer illegal and dangerous butt-boosting injections for $6,000'

A Texas mother and daughter duo have been arrested for allegedly running a cross-country illegal butt Botox operation.

Consuelo Dal Bo, 56, and her daughter Isabella Dal Bo, 18, were busted by Houston police on Wednesday during a sting operation.

Police said the two women were charging customers $6,000 for the procedure using illegal injectables.

Agents from the Houston Police Department's Major Offenders Division, the FDA and Homeland Security Investigations worked together to arrest the duo- following an undercover sting. 

Cameras were rolling when the two were led out of their home in handcuffs with police swarming the house. The mugshots were also released, showing heavy makeup or the use of products to make them look younger. 

An undercover officer posed as a client to meet the two women at a temporary residence on Eastern Meadowlark Way in Conroe. Texas, on Wednesday, reported KTRK. The mother and daughter had reportedly came straight from the airport after conducting business in California. 

Police said the women tried to give the undercover cop Xanax to relax before the injections.

Authorities collected bottles of illegal injectables and medical equipment from their bags at the scene.

The women allegedly told police they were 'not even sure what was in the bottles.'

Both are charged with unlawfully practicing medicine and the mother will face an additional drug charge. Consuelo and Isabella were released on bond and have a court date scheduled for April 10, reported Click2Houston.

According to public records, Consuelo is a licensed cosmetologist in Texas and the family home is listed as a $650,330 residence in Conroe.

The FDA issued a warning against injectable silicone for body contouring in 2021 and said they can lead to long-term pain, infections and serious injuries including death.

'The injectable silicone oil (breaks) off into smaller particles throughout the body, possibly causing permanent damage and life-threatening complications such as stroke, embolism and even death,' Lisa Vasquez, a board-certified aesthetic nurse practitioner at Pearlman Aesthetic Surgery told USA Today.

Vasquez warned that the reversal process of silicone injection is difficult, even for the most skilled plastic surgeons. 

'Removal will require direct incision or VASER-assisted liposuction guided by ultrasound, [which] emoves injected silicone, siliconomas, and scar tissue,' she said.

'But there is nothing that can dissolve the liquid silicone. Granulomas that are formed need to be surgically excised.'

The FDA said injectable silicone stays in the body forever because the material will never breakdown.

'Injectable silicone is permanent and stays in your body. It can move throughout the body and cause serious health consequences, including death,' the FDA said. 

In California, a mother and daughter duo were found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for deadly butt-lift last month. 

Libby Adame, 53, and her daughter Alicia Galaz were charged with causing the death of their client, Karissa Rajpaul, 26, in October 2019.

The mother and daughter ran an illegal Brazilian butt lift surgery ring using 'toxic' compounds in their silicone injections.

Prosecutors said they fled the scene after several botched surgeries, including after Rajpaul suffered a heart attack on their operating table in a hotel.
