Which medical beauty programs are illegal?

Today, the problem of food and clothing has been solved, coupled with the standard of "beauty" implied by the indiscriminate bombing of various media, everyone has higher and higher requirements for their own beauty, but not everyone can have the gene as beautiful as a star. There are nearly 20 million medical beauty consumers in China, and there is a shortage of regular medical beauty practitioners in China. There are less than 3 qualified professional medical beauty or plastic surgeons per million people. Affected by lucrative profits and low illegal cost, China's medical beauty market is full of illegal medical beauty clinics and illegal medical beauty personnel, and the number of such black institutions is much more than that of regular medical beauty institutions. They are hidden in glamorous clubs, beauty salons, nail salons, residential buildings and even hotels.

First, the state does not allow the development of medical beauty projects.

1. Leg stovepipe surgery with calf nerve transection

Leg nerve amputation and stovepipe surgery is a medical beauty project, which was popular in many apps and was quickly banned. It was found to be extremely harmful by the state and quickly stopped. Its principle is to cut off some nerves in the calf and make the calf muscles atrophy, so as to achieve the purpose of stovepipe shaping. However, behind the glamorous publicity, there is a great risk of irreversible nerve damage and motor dysfunction of lower limbs. In severe cases, people can only sit in wheelchairs for life, and what is more tragic is that the reduced legs will become thicker again.

2, whitening needle

China's drug administration has not approved any injection for whitening, and it is illegal for any institution or individual to give others unregistered drugs. However, in the daily life of the public, the push in APP small articles and small videos is in full swing and bombarded in turn. There are no legal whitening needles at home and abroad, and there are many fakes. Moreover, even the US FDA has issued a warning about whitening needles. To put it bluntly, whitening needle is actually putting a variety of whitening ingredients and auxiliary ingredients into a bottle of physiological saline and intravenous infusion into the body. Because the side effects of the main functional components may lead to thrombosis, dysmenorrhea and even cerebral thrombosis. In order to be effective, this ingredient accounts for a large proportion in whitening needles, which requires multiple injections and the risk will rise sharply. In addition, mixing multiple drugs into the same physiological saline, regardless of whether there are compatibility taboos between drugs, just injecting multiple drugs into blood at the same time will have great security risks, and the damage to metabolic organs such as liver and kidney will suddenly increase, seriously damaging life and health.

3. Fat-dissolving needle

China Drug Administration has not approved any injection for weight loss, and a fat-soluble needle that claims to have been filed is actually not allowed to be used as an injection. It is illegal for any institution or individual to use unregistered drugs for others. In other words, the "fat-dissolving needle" has not been legalized in China, and there is a lack of a large number of clinical experiments to test its safety.

Harm of fat dissolving needle:

① Fat cells are destroyed, disintegrated and finally metabolized, resulting in inflammatory reaction. This inflammatory reaction may cause serious consequences for a long time, such as redness, infection and suppuration, fat liquefaction, nodular masses, ulcer perforation, pain, dyskinesia and so on. Once it happens, even after formal treatment, it can't be fully recovered.

② A large number of adipocytes were destroyed, disintegrated, emulsified and entered the blood. Fat drops can easily cause serious microcirculation disturbance, make local tissues ischemic or even necrotic, and cause a series of serious clinical symptoms.

What is even more frightening is that more and more clinical observations have found that the main components of fat-dissolving needles are not specifically aimed at fat cells. Studies have shown that high concentration of fat-soluble products will not only destroy some fat cells, but also cause irreversible damage to other normal tissues such as muscles, skin and blood vessels! The severity of its harm is far greater than the cosmetic effect of fat dissolution.

Second, illegal medical beauty also exists in the medical beauty projects permitted by the state.

1, handled by brush acid.

"brush acid" is not new in all kinds of medical beauty projects. The most common cosmetics used by the public are those containing "acid" (the acid content is limited to below 3%). Consumers who buy acidic cosmetics such as fruit acid and salicylic acid through formal channels need not be too nervous. Generally speaking, qualified acidic cosmetics are less risky, and it is generally no problem to use them according to the instructions every day. The "brush acid" in medical aesthetics, that is, chemical skin rejuvenation, refers to applying a certain concentration of acidic chemicals to the skin, causing controllable damage and promoting skin regeneration, so as to achieve cosmetic effects such as improving acne, dissolving acne, shrinking pores, reducing oil production and fading fine lines. Because it will do harm to the skin, chemical rejuvenation belongs to the category of medical beauty, so it must be operated by trained professionals in hospitals or clinics with medical qualifications, and the acid used is not cosmetics (the concentration of acid is generally above 20%). The risk of "brush acid" is that it is very risky to go to an illegal medical beauty institution without medical beauty qualification, brush high-concentration acid by non-professionals, or get high-concentration acid through improper channels to operate on its own, resulting in uncontrollable skin damage.

2, shoddy.

Medical beauty involves many drugs, consumables, instruments, optical, acoustic and electrical beauty equipment. Domestic and imported products have different prices and different effects. This has led to such illegal behavior. During the preoperative conversation, illegal medical and beauty institutions told them that they would inject, implant or use certain drugs, materials and optical, acoustic and electrical beauty equipment, but in practice they secretly switched to cheaper drugs, materials or equipment. For example, in the early stage, low-priced publicity was used to attract beauty seekers, and physiological saline was added to patients several times before injecting stovepipe needles. But when you go for an injection in the future, you will be told that the experience discount price is used up and the price will go up immediately.

3, potion/Dot mole pen Dot mole

Commonly known as nevus, medically known as pigmented nevus, is a benign hyperplasia of nevus cells in the skin. This disease is relatively common, almost everyone has it, and usually has a gradual development process. It is flat in early childhood, and then it gradually becomes larger with age, and the mole increases to a larger area or convex skin.

The treatment of mole removal belongs to the category of medical beauty because it will invade the skin and cause harm. It can only be operated by professional medical personnel in regular medical and aesthetic institutions. However, in our daily life, many online shopping platforms or social apps can see that many people use the so-called "Dot mole pen" or "potion" to get rid of moles, promoting effective mole removal without recurrence. Comparing the photos before and after treatment makes people eager to try. But in fact, it is easy to cause disfigurement such as infection, ulceration and hypertrophic scar. This situation is very common in clinic, which leads to the need to spend more time and money to repair the evil consequences in the future, and it may not be able to return to the previous appearance.

The above is just the tip of the iceberg of black medical beauty. In reality, the routines that beauty seekers encounter are even more elusive and countless. In short, anything that will damage the skin, bleed or get stuck in the meat belongs to medical beauty, and should go to a regular medical beauty institution, such as plastic surgery, micro-plastic injection, photoacoustic electrotherapy (laser, photon, radio frequency, etc. ), chemical skin rejuvenation (fruit acid, salicylic acid, etc. ), tattoos (tattoos) and so on. Beauty salons and hair salons can only provide non-invasive life beauty services, such as facial massage care, whole body massage care, manicure and so on. It is illegal for institutions and personnel who have not obtained medical beauty qualification to provide medical beauty, and there are great security risks, ranging from disfigurement to death. Consumers must polish their eyes before doing medical beauty, and better upgrade the "face value" under the premise of safety.
