Reading Time: <1 minuteThis time, the Japanese Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery had topics and sessions related to SNS. It seemed a little out of place to talk about PR and making money in an academic setting, but it is true that it attracted the interest of many doctors. I was intrigued by the fact that criminal acts by a group of unscrupulous cosmetic surgery clinics were pointed out. Of course, the cosmetic surgeons in that group do not participate in conferences. They have nothing to do with academic matters and are a criminal group. They do flashy discount PR and perform medical procedures such as consultations by unqualified counselors. They hold patients under house arrest and force them to take out expensive loans. They make doctors with little experience perform unreasonable surgeries... Many patients have become victims. The reality of this was announced. I hope that this message reaches the group of criminal cosmetic surgeons.
