The Dangers of Plastic Surgery!

I know that it may be tough to look at this picture of Korean woman, Hang Mioku, who is now 48 years old. Hang had her first plastic surgery at the age of 28 and was hooked from then on. I'm not even going to beat around the bush with this. We all can surmise that the pictures of this lady are not flattering at all, but this is what happens when you don't love yourself and what God has created in you.

Hang moved to Japan after her first surgery so that she could receive further operations on her face and other parts of her body. After operation after operation, her face was eventually left enlarged and disfigured, but she would still look at herself in the mirror and think she was not beautiful enough but still beautiful. Eventually the surgeons she visited refused to carry out any more work on her and one suggested that her obsession could be a sign of a psychological disorder.

When she returned home to Korea the surgery meant Hang’s features had changed so much that her own parents didn’t recognize her. After realizing that the girl with the grossly swollen face was indeed their daughter her horrified parents took her to a doctor. Once again the possibility that Hang had a mental disorder was raised and she started treatment. However, this treatment was too expensive for her to keep up and she soon fell back into old ways. If she hadn't spent all that unnecessary money on these ridiculous surgeries, she probably could have been treated the way she needed to be by physicians. But amazingly, she found a doctor who was willing to give her silicone injects and, what’s more, he then gave her a syringe and silicone of her own so she could self-inject. When her supply of silicone ran out Hang resorted to injecting cooking oil into her face. *BLANK STARE* Her face became so grotesquely large that she was called “standing fan” by children in her neighbourhood - due to her large face and small body.

As Hang’s notoriety spread she was featured on Korean TV. Viewers seeing the report took mercy on her and sent in enough donations to enable her to have surgery to reduce the size of her face. During the first procedure surgeons removed 60g of foreign substance from Hang’s face and 200g from her neck. After several other sessions her face was left greatly reduced but still scarred and disfigured. And it would seem that even Hang can now see the damage she has done; she now says that she would simply like her original face back.

Below is a picture of what Hang look like before the surgeries. Terrible shame she didn't love herself enough to be satisfied with her original face. Ladies, God made you you for a reason. Love the skin you're in! If you don't love you, how do you expect others too?
