missy_sana Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOD!!!! Me too, I had several procedures done there! I can't believe that this has happened. WTF??? Also, that link has been removed already. I don't even understand any of the Korean in the other news report, so I'm just relying on what you people are translating. Just. So. Stunned.

honeyjello Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I am shocked at this news as well. I had my eyelid surgery done there and had a generally good experience with them, so I can't believe this would happen. Really sad for the patient who died. RIP... How will MVP's reputation be affected after this?! Will it end up being like Grand or GNG - avoided by people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabienne16 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Gosh, this is the main reason why I have been holding back getting a surgery. I get really excited about a clinic and then I hear news like this. A girl dead because not of the operation itself but anestheasia (besides the fact that I'm afraid of my face and eyes being getting botched) I was considering this clinic as well. But now I'm doubting every clinic. I had contact with View through Kakoa and they seemed really nice. But View is just as popular and big as MVP. And from what I've read the big ones will eventually always fall and get negative reviews. Although I'm very glad this blog exist. Because now we can warn each other for clinics like this. I'm so sorry for the girl who died.... if only the doctors had more respect for her and were more competent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachyann Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 How are these clinics still allowed to operate? This is clearly medical malpractice knowing the patient laid there dying and the staff including the doctor did an half ass job to try to save her.

missy_sana Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 This is a lesson for all of us: We only research into what surgery to do and which Surgeon, but who has actually researched into the anaesthesia that put you to sleep and the Anaesthetist who keeps you alive?

jenggg Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'll certainly ask about it when I eventually have consultations in SK. For my initial surgery in Australia, the anaesthesiologist called me a few days beforehand and asked me a series of questions and told me how to prepare, and what I should and shouldn't do. And then I talked to him again on the day, before the surgery. Like he was a very prominent part of it all. This? This is just so sad. ETA: They all looked useless though. I can't stomach seeing the doctor fold his arms and do nothing. They had no emergency equipment? No emergency facilities? I guess that's another thing we all need to be more scrupulous in checking. Just horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gats Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Tragic. Is the clinic going to get temporarily shutdown while they investigate? Their emergency response was grossly negligent. Also you know everyone at that clinic is rattled now because of this, I wouldn't want them operating on me in that mental state. For Korean ps, what is the usual protocol when it comes to the patient and the anaesthesiologist? Is there usually any interaction at all before surgery or consultation? This is a reminder to us that our research should not just involve aesthetic results but questioning them on what they do in cases of emergency. It's not enough to say they never had one, rare reactions to anesthesia could happen, the question is what they'll do IF it happens. This 2014 article mentions the following: In data provided to Rep. Choi Dong-ik of the main opposition Democratic Party (DP), 77 percent out of 1,100 clinics performing cosmetic surgery were not equipped with defibrillators or ventilators, which are mandatory devices for first aid. Only 1.2 percent of such clinics in Gangnam have emergency equipment. Since there are no clear regulations requiring plastic surgery clinics to have this, some doctors do not make the necessary preparations to deal with emergencies, increasing the risk of fatalities during procedures, doctors said. Given their response, I'd say MVP was not prepared at all for this. I'll make sure to ask about whether clinics I'm researching have a defibrillator and ventilator in the operating room for emergencies, sounds like most will not though.

onlydbest Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 So shocking indeed. According to MissOrange , it was a male 20year old college student. Naver is all abuzz with this. He had trouble at 4:40p and was not moved to a university hospital till 6p. According to the family lawyer, he arrived at the hospital 100 minutes after arrhythmia and 911 had arrived within 60minutes of cardiopulmonary arrest. Cctv also caught nurse nurse laughing during the one-hand cpr and another one grooming her hair into a ponytail. Defib was not used or properly used. It is so sad and unbelievable.

sheonlylooks25 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Read this story. MVP Plastic Surgery, Seoul, South Korea is NOT a good place! Please beware of MVP, Dr Choi, Elizabeth and Elleni https://www.mvpplasticsurgery.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheonlylooks25 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Why did the patient need GA for rhinoplasty? I thought most were done under sedation/twilight. Please correct me if I am wrong. Most of the deaths seems to have occurred on the operating table so the Anesthesiologists training in Korea is questionable.
