You must be careful of side effects from excessive plastic surgery.


Recently, a program airing to help those who have suffered from excessive plastic surgery or who have lost confidence and suffered from depression after the procedure regain their former appearance has become a hot topic. Most of the participants had unnatural-looking faces due to reckless surgery or were living with severe scars on their bodies.

As plastic surgery becomes more common and the aversion to it diminishes, there is a growing number of cases involving unnecessary or excessive procedures. For instance, stem cell fat grafting, which is gaining popularity among those with sagging faces or aged appearances, is by no means an easy procedure; it involves transplanting stem cells after liposuction and takes approximately two to three hours to complete. Furthermore, because the surgery utilizes stem cells and fat extracted from the patient's own body, it is a complex procedure where the surgery cannot be performed if there is insufficient fat, or the timing must be rescheduled after gaining weight. Despite this, an increasing number of clinics are claiming that second or even third procedures are unconditionally possible, which is becoming a problem. One should also be suspicious of hospitals that claim stem cell fat grafting is possible for patients with a slender physique. The same applies to breast augmentation. Stem cell breast augmentation is also a surgical procedure in which fat is extracted from the body and mixed with stem cells before being injected into the breasts. Therefore, if you have a small amount of body fat or have previously undergone liposuction, you may not be able to undergo stem cell breast augmentation.

Dr. Shin Dong-jin, Director of SC301 Clinic, advised, "Interest in stem cell cosmetic surgery has increased recently. This suggests that not only has the number of customers seeking natural and safe procedures grown, but they are also making decisions after gathering a wealth of information before surgery. As a result, there is a growing number of cases where consumers are misled into believing that procedures merely involving autologous fat breast augmentation are actually stem cell surgeries. Since the results of stem cell surgery vary widely depending on the practitioner's skill level and the engraftment rate differs significantly, patients must carefully check whether the hospital is well-equipped and whether the medical team has extensive surgical experience before undergoing the procedure."

SC301 Clinic is not only equipped with state-of-the-art stem cell and pure fat cell extraction equipment such as TGI, HuriCell, and MultiStation, but Director Shin Dong-jin is also a key figure who first introduced stem cell-based breast and facial surgery in a field of cosmetic surgery that had previously relied solely on artificial implants. He has been developing stem cell breast augmentation since 2007 and, as the President of the Korean Society of Stem Cell Plastic Surgery, currently possesses experience in over 3,000 stem cell cosmetic surgeries. Furthermore, he has advanced breast augmentation methods that fully utilize the effects of stem cells, raising the engraftment rate of transplanted fat cells to over 70%, which has been proven through two research papers.

To undergo plastic surgery safely, it is crucial for the patient to accurately identify their desires and have a thorough discussion with the medical team regarding the results. It is essential to keep in mind that making a careful choice is necessary, as blindly performing too many procedures or redoing them ultimately leads to side effects.
