Is injection plastic surgery really as safe as advertised on the Internet?
In recent years, with the rapid development of medical technology and the improvement of everyone's quality of life, beauty care will no longer be the patent of a few people. From the young people of eighteen or nineteen to the adults in their forties, beauty, especially "micro-plastic surgery" with "little trauma and good effect" as the marketing means, has been favored and sought after by more and more people who pursue beauty.

However, with the rapid development in the field of beauty care, some illegal organizations and individuals take advantage of customers' psychological state of seeking beauty to engage in illegal business without a license, which has caused physical injuries and property losses to many beauty seekers and even brought great ideological blows. In recent years, medical disputes caused by illegal plastic surgery have occurred frequently in China, and they are getting worse.

At present, there are three kinds of injections commonly used in skin beauty: Botox, hyaluronic acid stock solution and collagen powder, which can change the appearance of local parts of the body and cause practical effects such as rhinoplasty, chin augmentation and face reduction. However, injection does not mean safety. Botulinum toxin is a neurotoxin. If doctors are not familiar with human anatomy, the injection location is not accurate, or botulinum toxin with too high concentration and dosage is used, it is likely to cause adverse reactions such as facial muscle stiffness and eyelid failure, and more seriously, it may damage facial nerves.

Unlike Botox, hyaluronic acid stock solution is a kind of tissue filler, which can make people's faces plump. Because the hyaluronic acid stock solution is colloidal and granular, the adverse reaction of random injection is more serious than that of Botox: if it is injected into facial capillaries, it is likely to enter the retinal artery in an instant, blocking the capillaries and causing blindness; If it enters the skull, it is likely to directly endanger people's lives.

Even transplantation with autologous fat filling that sounds "safe" is extremely risky. Autologous fat filling transplantation is to remove human fat from other parts of your body and then inject it into your face to achieve practical effects such as wrinkle removal. However, injecting human fat into temporal region, frontal region and eye region is also a high-risk operation, which has the risk of serious complications and death.
