A young lady went to renew her ID card Wednesday in Nanjing but was required to produce a plastic surgery certificate because she had removed a mole beside her lip, Modern Express reported.
According to a report from Sina.com, she went through all her medical records at the insurance company to find out the name of the doctor and other details of the surgery.
After a day's effort, she got a doctor's note certifying her cosmetic surgery in 2011.
It is not the first ID problem caused by cosmetic surgery. In 2009, a group of Chinese women who traveled to South Korea for cosmetic surgery baffled immigration officers on their return trip when their new looks did not match their passport photos.
