Dr. Clark, 45, admitted that from 2016 through 2020, she attempted to conceal from patients and the FDA that she was using unapproved and unlicensed botox injections and cosmetic filler devices, the Justice Department said. She also admitted to selling them to patients as Botox and Juvederm, which are both FDA-approved.

Dr. Clark’s practice landed more than $1 million in connection with misbranded and adulterated product sales, the Justice Department said.

Sentencing is set for April 7.
