Unlicensed doc ‘blinds woman with injection’
Print Edition
AN unlicensed surgeon was detained for allegedly blinding a patient in her right eye by injecting her with hyaluronic acid during an illegal rhinoplasty procedure, the Putuo District People’s Procuratorate said yesterday.
The suspect, surnamed Wang, advertised his services as “a South Korea-trained plastic surgeon” after completing a five-day course in Beijing last July.
“I didn’t know if he was licensed or not. I just saw pictures of him studying plastic surgery in Korea on Wechat,” the unidentified victim told prosecutors, who said the pictures were taken at a “Sino-Korean” plastic surgery center in Beijing.
On September 19 last year, Wang went to the victim’s home with his surgical equipment.
Wang allegedly injected hyaluronic acid into the victim’s nose and chin after administering a local anesthetic.
The victim soon began to experience extreme pain and began to have difficulty seeing with her right eye, and an hour later she was blind.
Wang fled the scene but police caught him at a Metro station on March 22.
