National Court Takes Over Investigation Into 360 Clinics Collapse
The Spanish National Court has assumed control of the investigation into the collapse of the 360 Clinics aesthetic chain, where executives face indictment for allegedly defrauding hundreds of clients through the sale of prepaid services despite the company's insolvency.
The National Court has taken over the investigation into the collapse of the 360 Clinics aesthetic center chain. The decision follows reports from the National Police and La Provincia, citing the scale of the fraud and the fact that victims are spread across multiple regions.
The company’s sole administrator and general manager are now under indictment. Investigators allege that the firm continued to operate even after it was no longer financially viable.
The core of the case involves the company continuing to sell vouchers and laser hair removal treatments while failing to pay essential costs, such as rent and staff salaries. This left 172 clients in Gran Canaria and Tenerife without the services they had paid for—often through financing agreements—when the clinics abruptly shut down at the end of 2025.
Police analysis shows that management attempted to hide the impending closure by claiming the company was undergoing an "internal restructuring." In reality, at least 40 victims never received a single session despite paying in full. The case has been escalated to the national level due to the complexity of the business structure and the likelihood that the financial damage extends beyond the Canary Islands.
This situation highlights the risks consumers face when dealing with prepaid services or linked financing models. As the police investigation continues—with three additional individuals identified as potential suspects—victims are organizing online to seek compensation. Many are still struggling to cancel financing installments for services that are no longer being provided.
