~ Causes of cosmetic surgery deaths? Explore the reality. Terrible medical practice hidden in discounted cosmetic surgery

! ! ! Emergency column! ! ! Recently, various media outlets reported on a fatal accident at S Cosmetic Surgery Clinic, a major cosmetic surgery chain. There were two fatal accidents last year, and many fatal accidents due to cosmetic surgery have already occurred at S Cosmetic Surgery Clinic. This is a famous clinic group that is well-known in the industry for thoroughly reducing the quality of manualized medical care and performing discount cosmetic surgery. It is also famous for never hiring experienced cosmetic surgery specialists and for not allowing any academic study sessions or exchange of opinions. It is also a cosmetic surgery clinic that is famous for performing extremely sloppy surgery. Of course, there are very few cases where the doctors belonging to this cosmetic surgery group make presentations at or participate in academic conferences. This is because it would be disadvantageous for this cosmetic surgery group to never allow them to learn or introduce legitimate cosmetic surgery medicine. In other words, a low-cost, low-quality, profit-earning business model has been created that pursues only the benefits for the management side, not the benefits for the patients. Doctors who come from this cosmetic surgery clinic group and open their own cosmetic surgery clinics also often operate cosmetic surgery clinics using similar methods of attracting customers and surgical methods. I have patients who have undergone surgery at S Cosmetic Surgery, but there are also many who have undergone surgery by doctors from S Cosmetic Surgery and come to me for corrections because their results were extremely unnatural. There are self-proclaimed cosmetic surgeons who perform similar cosmetic surgery, believing that what they learned and experienced at S Cosmetic Surgery is the best and everything. There are also doctors who call themselves charismatic. Do 2009 people have been operated on for liposuction surgery, and are all XNUMX people really satisfied? What level does the experience of S Cosmetic Surgery compare to the current standard of cosmetic surgery? Cutting corners and keeping costs low is a big risk for patients other than financial benefits. S Cosmetic Surgery repeatedly promotes itself with its best technology and advertising, but doctors with the best technology will never perform cosmetic treatments that use only the lowest priced medical materials, refusing proper aftercare for extremely low surgery fees. Neither the Japanese Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery nor the Japanese Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons have ever rated this cosmetic surgery clinic as having the best technology. My cosmetic surgeon friends have also experienced many patients who have had major problems at S Cosmetic Surgery Clinic and have had to undergo corrections. This is the death of a XNUMX-year-old woman due to liposuction. This is an incident that should be taken seriously. Is it really right to recommend liposuction to a XNUMX-year-old? Is it right to ignore aftercare? Were necessary tests such as blood tests and electrocardiograms performed before the surgery? Was the surgery performed properly under strict supervision by an experienced doctor? I feel that we will never get a satisfactory answer from S Cosmetic Surgery. In addition to S Cosmetic Surgery, a major accident occurred in XNUMX at a cosmetic surgery group in the Kanto region that sold discounts. It seems that the accident occurred because the group attracted customers with flashy advertising and performed careless anesthesia despite the lack of cosmetic surgery specialists or supervising doctors. Are there any benefits to discount medical care? Do patients really understand the risks? It is true that many of the medical accidents caused by cosmetic surgery have occurred at cosmetic surgery clinics that have lowered the quality of medical care through price competition. There is a possibility that the actual number and content of fatal accidents at cosmetic surgery clinics that offer discounted low-cost cosmetic surgery, including S Cosmetic Surgery Clinic, is hidden. As cosmetic surgery continues to develop, we will be required more than ever to carefully assess the quality of medical care and provide reliable medical care that puts the patient first. As a cosmetic surgeon, if you do not have the proper skills, knowledge, and experience, and the ability to reliably deal with any problems that may arise, surely you should also be humble enough to refrain from performing surgery. I hope that the perception that cosmetic surgery is scary, that it is an outrageous medical procedure, or that cosmetic surgery is anti-social medical care does not spread.
