When Cosmetic Surgery Addiction Goes Bad…
You know, I’m sure there’s a point for every addict where you catch yourself doing something so strange and bizarre that you suddenly realise “I’ve probably hit rock bottom” and seek help.
Helpful hint for plastic surgery addicts then – if you’re about to inject cooking oil into your face, IT IS TIME TO STEP AWAY FROM THE MIRROR AND TALK TO A PROFESSIONAL.
A woman addicted to cosmetic surgery is unrecognisable after injecting cooking oil into her face. The Daily Telegraph in London reports Korean woman Hang Mioku, 48, had her first cosmetic surgery procedure at 28 and was hooked, moving to Japan for more.
Ms Hang’s parents took her for treatment for her addiction, but it didn’t last. She soon found a doctor who would give her silicone injections and he even gave her a syringe and silicone so she could self-inject, the paper said.
When her supply ran out, she used cooking oil.
I’m no doctor, but I cannot help but feel it should be rather common knowledge that silicone is not easily replaceable with cooking oil. This is not like going to the pharmacist and getting the generic brand! Or is it? Suddenly I’m eyeing off my bottle of Crisco…
Let’s take a moment to appreciate the cruel wit of children.
Her face became so large compared to her small body that local children called her “standing fan”, the newspaper reported.
Zing!
And here’s the understatement of the century.
Her face has been left scarred and disfigured, and Ms Hang said she would like her old looks back.
No, really?

I am a Korean plastic surgeon, Rhee SC. I had known the miserable woman. I gave the medical certification of body dymorphic disorder and disability of face. Our Korean government protects her from psychiatric disability now. However, because I know the full story about her in Japan, I resented an unfavorable criticism from this news and broadcasting by Japanese. As I know, she was a singer having good talents of voice. She had gone to Japan, she was working at a theater in Japan. Although she had very good voice and beautiful face, a Japanese director of the theater does not like her face. At that times, as most Japanese preferred more round face, the director compel her to have fatty face and he recommended her to be injected of silicone to her face for more round face. It is the very first start of this miserable result. You, writer of this new, broadcasting company, should know what was happened to her and shame of this news; She is only a sacrifice of cruel society and segregation of nationality. You have no right to present this news and her face without her permission. You, telegraph.co.uk should give official apology to her.
