Many cases of cosmetic complications
Having just received a Tet bonus at the same time as a beauty salon near her house launched a promotion package of "50% off Tet beauty", young girl NTV (25 years old, Hanoi ) decided to inject filler to fill in the hollows in her temples to make her face fuller. However, after the injection, V had swelling on one side of her face. Doctors at the Central Dermatology Hospital diagnosed V with cellulitis.
A case of complications after performing meso injection for skin beauty.
Dr. Nguyen Quang Minh, Deputy Head of the Stem Cell Department, Central Dermatology Hospital said: "This is a typical case of complications from filler injection to fill the temples. We had to inject filler-dissolving drugs, use strong anti-inflammatory drugs, and strong antibiotics, however, it is very difficult to fully recover."
Explaining further the cause of complications, Dr. Minh said that the patient may have injected too much into one location, causing increased compression of the lymphatic system and veins, causing swelling.
Or like the case of Ms. HTN (Hanoi) who came to the hospital with a face full of red bumps. That was the result after two weeks of Ms. N getting meso injections to beautify her skin at a spa. After examination, Ms. N was diagnosed with granulomas after meso injections. The doctor prescribed oral medication, anti-inflammatory injections, and granulomatous tissue injections to dissolve the bumps, but it was uncertain whether the skin would return to its original state.
According to Dr. Minh, many patients who come to the hospital in similar conditions have to be treated for 3-6 months before they can stabilize.
"Instant" beauty advertising tricks
Dr. Nguyen Quang Minh said that complications of medical cosmetic surgery mostly occur at unlicensed cosmetic facilities, and the person performing the technique has not been granted a license to practice related to medical cosmetic surgery.
Common complications are mainly related to filler injections, botulinum toxin injections, mesotherapy and related techniques using machines and technologies that change the surface skin structure such as lasers and skin peels.
According to Dr. Minh, customers should also pay attention to promotional tricks and sky-high advertising, and not choose beauty establishments with prices that are too cheap. It is necessary to choose safe and effective methods, and choose the right licensed and experienced facility.
According to Dr. Nguyen Tien Thanh, Deputy Head of the Quality Management Department, Central Dermatology Hospital, when livestreaming advertisements, the cosmetic facility presented very vivid images. The spokesperson for those advertisements is not a medical professional and does not have any medical expertise.
Advertising tricks only appeal to the criteria that most customers think are "delicious, nutritious, cheap". Advertising "completely eliminates melasma after one use" or "cheap meso injections for only a few hundred thousand dong" are not true to reality. Good products cannot be that cheap.
"In just December 2023 and the first half of January 2024, I have received more than 30 patients with complications after beauty treatments at underground beauty salons, spas, and hair salons. Currently, most spas, beauty salons, and hair salons often send people to short-term courses of about 3-4 months in a vocational training style, then return to directly perform procedures such as meso injections and filler injections for customers.
It is worth mentioning that the training facilities do not care about the input level and test the training results of the students. Meanwhile, these invasive procedures are only allowed to be performed at medical facilities licensed by the Department of Health and the Ministry of Health , and have the list of techniques approved within the scope of professional activities," said Dr. Thanh.
According to Dr. Nguyen Tien Thanh, Deputy Head of the Quality Management Department, Central Dermatology Hospital, among invasive skin beautification methods, there are techniques that require customers to perform multiple treatments to be safe and effective. However, many people are impatient to use the service once, so they face many side effects.
