SK plastic surgeon builds 鈥榖one towers鈥
Print Edition
A South Korean plastic surgeon faces a fine after building “bone towers” in his Gangnam district clinic filled with jawbone shards from hundreds of patients.
The 60-centimeter-tall glass structures were filled with jawbone parts removed during surgery, a local official in Seoul said yesterday.
The clinic specializes in jaw procedures, which are very popular in South Korea, especially among women aspiring to a thinner facial look with a V-shaped chin.
A photo of the “bone towers” posted on the clinic’s website was removed after it went viral on the Internet, drawing a storm of online criticism.
“This is the most gross, disgusting image I’ve seen in recent memory,” tweeted @dadaibadi.
The local official said it also contravened regulations requiring the disposal and incineration of body parts removed in medical procedures.
“We visited the clinic after some people filed complaints and plan to slap a fine of 3 million won (US$2,796),” the official said.
“The official added that the clinic had now removed the twin structures.
