Nose job shouldn't be fatal attraction
ON JAN 3, a 19-year-old girl went to a plastic surgery hospital in Guiyang, Southwest China's Guizhou province, for a nose job. Seven hours later, her family was told she had died. Thepaper.cn comments:
The case has really shocked the public. It is widely known that cosmetic surgery, however minor it might be, poses potential risks that might threaten a person's health even life, but the death of the girl is still something that the public cannot accept. It is really hard for people to accept that a person might die in the pursuit of beauty.
The case also exposes some problems in the plastic surgery industry. Although many plastic surgery facilities call themselves hospitals they do not have any medical licenses. They just use hospital in their names to make people think they are true hospitals.
