South Korea claims to be the most prosperous country in the world for plastic surgery and attracts many beauty lovers. However, driven by interests, The Korean plastic surgery industry is also chaotic and mixed. Among them, the phenomenon of "ghost surgery" continues to appear, and the preoperative commitment is made by a professional doctor, but the actual operation after anesthesia is a novice doctor. It is reported that nearly half of the medical accidents that occur in plastic surgery are related to "ghost surgery".
"Ghost surgery" refers to the preoperative promise of a certain dean and a famous doctor to perform the operation, but the actual operation is performed by other inexperienced young doctors. This kind of "ghost surgery" is common in large plastic surgery hospitals and is very organized.
Surveillance footage from a plastic surgery hospital shows that the doctor who promised to perform surgery before the operation waited for the patient to undergo anesthesia before entering the operating room, and did not wear a surgical gown, and the actual operation was performed by young doctors who had never seen a patient, and the level of surgery was very unskilled. This is the terrible thing about "ghost surgery".
A doctor at a plastic surgery hospital in South Korea: Ah, why not? It's over, maybe I'm too poor. President of a plastic surgery hospital in South Korea: Okay? How do you make fat so bloody? Doctor of a plastic surgery hospital in South Korea: No way, hahaha.
After the operation, the patient's legs and other parts of the leg appeared serious sequelae, and both academics and marriage were affected.
According to Korean media reports, novice doctors who want to accumulate surgical experience and large plastic surgery hospitals that want to use them to do more surgery and make more money, the two are in agreement, making it difficult to eliminate "ghost surgery".
Cha Sang-mong, a professional plastic surgeon in Korea: It is a practice that novice doctors can take this opportunity to perform surgery. A small doctor without visibility to open a small clinic outside, there is certainly no patient patronage, and can not accumulate so much surgical experience.
It is reported that nearly half of the medical accidents that occur in plastic surgery are related to "ghost surgery". Kim Sun-woong, a South Korean plastic surgeon, said that of the more than 500 dead since the beginning of 2000, 200-300 were due to "ghost surgery." However, because the law does not explicitly stipulate that "ghost surgery" is a criminal act, it is difficult to eliminate this kind of behavior.
"Ghost surgery" victim Yin Mou: No one is punished, there are victims but no perpetrators, this fact makes me feel unbearable and very terrible.
The phenomenon of "ghost surgery" in the Korean plastic surgery industry is shocking, and problem cosmetic fillers directly turn beauty into disfigurement. A woman in her 20s in South Korea developed bruises or even necrosis on her entire face after receiving a beauty filler injection.
Ms. Song, 52, also suffered this situation. Five years ago, Ms. Song spent 1.5 million won (about 8,550 yuan) to undergo injection cosmetic surgery from an unlicensed plastic surgeon, resulting in puffiness in her face and stiff skin.
Although she underwent three foreign body removal surgeries, the filler remained in the skin and muscle texture, and the doctor said that she could not restore her appearance.
Victim Ms. Song: My current situation is that the skin is gradually necrotic, I can't even make a decent expression, and my life has been isolated from society.
The frequent chaos has greatly damaged the image of South Korea's plastic surgery industry. At present, the Korea Tourism Agency is actively engaged in the disclosure of cosmetic surgery prices to foreigners so that foreign consumers can accurately obtain price information. At the same time, in order to combat fraud, the South Korean government is also considering arranging more medical consultants at airports or hotels. Consumers who plan to undergo plastic surgery in South Korea are also reminded to choose carefully and avoid being deceived.
