Inappropriate Treatments by Inappropriate Practitioners

摘要

Recently, I obtained letters from 2 individuals who were seeking my advice after they received cosmetic surgery outside of my practice. One individual underwent Lipodissolve injections and the other individual received laser liposuction. As a result of the procedures, they developed problems and were looking for solutions. Even though it is not uncommon, to experience the occasional complication after treatment, it is beneficial to discuss issues regarding cosmetic surgery complications by using these 2 cases, and to offer solutions as to how we, and the profession of cosmetic dermatology, can address such problems.
