Rishon Lezion Cosmetic Clinic Owner Charged with Indecent Acts Against Client

Eliran Azar, 38, owner of a cosmetic clinic in Rishon Lezion, has been formally charged with committing indecent acts against a client at his clinic. According to the indictment, in May 2025, a client visited Azar's clinic intending to purchase cosmetic creams. Azar then suggested they urinate together, which the client refused. Azar proceeded to claim the client’s dry skin originated from his intimate organs. Despite the client’s refusal, Azar lowered his pants and underwear and committed indecent acts on him. During the visit, Azar repeatedly asked the client questions about modeling. After the incident, the client expressed shock, and Azar apologized.

Azar’s attorney, Dor Cohen, strongly denied the allegations, stating that Azar has no criminal background and has earned the trust and respect of thousands over the years. Cohen emphasized that no previous complaints of this nature have been made against Azar and suggested the accusations are baseless and motivated by unknown reasons. The defense is confident the truth will emerge during the legal process, leading to Azar’s acquittal.

This case follows other recent allegations of sexual misconduct in Israel, including a pediatrician accused of indecent acts against a clinic employee in Tel Aviv and a teacher from Lod arrested on suspicion of sexual offenses against a 12-year-old student.
