Today, aesthetic surgery and interventions have become fashionable, outgrowing the need. Of course, the increasing demand has caused the financial pie to grow, which has caused people who want a slice of that pie to run wild in areas they are not experts in.
Although plastic surgeons are the authorized physician group for aesthetic surgeries in our Turkey, each doctor has started to perform aesthetic surgeries in their own body parts. It has even reached such a point that an Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) specialist physician has found the courage and limits to perform eyelid surgeries beyond the body part in which he was trained, and has started to announce on social media that he has performed these surgeries. The main reason for this situation can be considered as insufficient supervision. However, the real reason is that people's greed for money has no end. Our ancestors said, "He who steals the minaret prepares his cover", and physicians who perform aesthetic surgeries without authorization and without law first defended their attempts with sentences starting with "We are also physicians", and then they became "Aesthetic specialists" in the regions they wanted in a few hours with courses organized by those who had previously exceeded this limit and were more daring. They even invented a specialty for themselves that does not exist in our country called "Facial Plastic Surgery / Facial Plastic Surgery specialist" and found the courage to share it on social media.
Let's put health aside, you are meticulously planning for your only child to get into a good school. You are making every sacrifice you can, trying to provide every support from school, teacher, course. So, would you want a history teacher to teach math? Or would you accept it? After all, isn't he a teacher too? Let's say he has also taken a 6-hour math course, would you entrust your child to him? Why would you have someone who is not legally authorized to perform an intervention that may cause irreversible problems in your health while paying attention to his field of study so that he can learn a lesson?
Yes, maybe a history teacher can teach math cheaper than a math teacher. You too can think of the profit you made in every lesson for a year and be happy. But when the year is over and the child takes the exam, the truth comes out. Just like the early edema period of the surgery is over and you encounter permanent results in the first year... The difference is that the student can sit for another year and take lessons from a math teacher and increase his score, but a damaged tissue or nerve may never recover. A doctor who performs a surgery that he/she is not trained for and harms the patient will have to pay very serious compensation if the patient complains.
No matter what kind of change you are planning to make to your physical appearance, the group of doctors you should contact are Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery specialists who have received this training and are authorized for aesthetic surgeries in our country.
Please do not forget to ask your doctor if he/she is a real ‘Plastic Surgeon’ and not a fake before having an aesthetic surgery…
