A millionairess accused of trying to ‘seduce’ a celebrity dermatologist in a harassment campaign has claimed she was unhappy about a botched treatment at his Harley Street clinic.

Property developer Patricia Bailey, 70, allegedly bombarded cosmetic expert Dr Phillippe Hamada-Pisal with calls and texts between 25 October and 13 December.

Dr Hamada-Pisal, a French skincare guru, founded PHP Aesthetics where stars have been treated.

Prosecutors claim Bailey turned up at the clinic unannounced and followed him home during the campaign.

The businesswoman returned to the dock today at Westminster Magistrates’ Court smartly dressed in a white silk scarf, black skirt suit and brown wedge heels.

Bailey spoke only to confirm her name and she denied harassment without violence.

She will argue Dr Hamada-Pisal, who serves as President of the UK Mesotherapy Society, is not ‘qualified’ and has invented the allegation to hide his wrongdoing.

Her lawyer indicated she would claim the doctor had botched a cosmetic procedure on her and she had returned to the surgery to have it remedied.

Bailey previously found herself in court in 2010 for pretending to cast curses and threaten ‘damnation’ upon her neighbours in a luxury apartment block in Fitzrovia.

She was told by a magistrate he wished he could ‘ban her from the entire planet’ as she was given an indefinite nationwide anti-social behaviour order.

She appealed against the ruling and told the court it was instead her neighbours who had subjected her to a ‘horrific ordeal’ but the order remained in place.

Bailey denied a series of allegations from separate residents including claims that she peeked through a man’s blinds and hurled bleach at a neighbour in another flat.

Prosecutor Leila Nahaboo said: ‘The complainant states his daily life has changed. He says he’s found out that this defendant has had an Asbo before.

‘He’s very concerned she has followed him to his home address turned up at his work place unannounced and he says my daily activities are changed.

‘The defendant has been turning up unannounced, calling him non-stop, there have been text messages and also contact to the complainant’s colleagues.’

Asked what Bailey’s case would be, Robert Katz, defending, said: ‘Saying that her conduct didn’t amount to harassment* Some of the allegations are untrue.

‘He wasn’t qualified and in fact botched a treatment on her and she was trying to find some redress for that.

‘The doctor has made false allegations that she was trying to seduce him and that he’s made this up to cover up what is in effect his malpractice and malfeasance.’

Bench chairman Paul Brooks released Bailey on conditional bail and ordered her not to visit the Harley Street clinic or contact the doctor.

Bailey, from Liverpool, denied harassment without violence. She will return to stand trial before magistrates at Hendon Magistrates’ Court on November 2.
