Dr. Pham Thi Viet Dung: A few months before Tet is the time when women often beautify themselves to welcome Tet, in accordance with the time needed to recover after surgery and leave no or only a few traces of the surgery. cosmetic surgery when Tet comes. Many women also choose to have surgery right before the New Year holiday to take advantage of this time to rest.

However, compared to a few years ago, the demand for Cosmetic Surgery this year is less vibrant because cosmetic surgery serves "luxury" needs, so this field is one of the areas that is affected. the first impact of the economic crisis. While around this time in previous years, many women chose surgery, even combo surgery with multiple techniques at the same time, this year the focus is mainly on a few customers requesting single services.

The closer Tet is, the more carefully considered surgeries on exposed areas and long recovery times are due to the worry that surgical results will not be completed in time for Tet. At this time, customers prioritize choosing beauty services with minimal facial intervention, filer injections, eyelid surgery, skin care... or services that are easy to hide and do not require immediate perfection of results such as breast augmentation. , enlarged breast reduction, tummy tuck or private area cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Pham Thi Viet Dung: The majority of failed surgeries, especially cosmetic surgeries, have serious complications related to surgery in unlicensed facilities and unlicensed technicians. practice, even those who have not studied medicine. The problem of impersonating cosmetic surgeons to advise and operate on patients for profit is blatantly rampant everywhere. There are no medical qualifications or licenses to practice cosmetic surgery, but many individuals still wear white coats, impersonate, fake qualifications, and directly consult and perform surgery.

This problem is even more serious with the development of social networks such as Facebook and Tiktok, when subjects are willing to fake images and videos, run ads to attract and deceive customers, leading to serious consequences. There are failed surgeries and even deaths.

Dr. Pham Thi Viet Dung: I am very worried when more and more false advertisements are spread on social networks and media. Use beautiful words about new, modern techniques, new machines and materials that are effective and absolutely safe to meet customer expectations, with the sole purpose of increasing sales.

In fact, any invasive technique has risks, each surgery and each material inserted into the body has certain effects and downsides, there are no perfect techniques like many. advertising today.

Dr. Pham Thi Viet Dung: Beauty is a completely reasonable aspiration and will grow as the quality of life improves. However, patients and customers should seek reputable doctors and medical facilities licensed to perform cosmetic surgery. These must be hospitals, departments, and cosmetic surgery clinics, but Spas and Beauty Salons do not have the function of performing invasive techniques.

In addition, discussing carefully with the surgeon to clearly understand the procedure, recovery process and realistic expectations will help patients and customers feel more satisfied with the service they choose.
