CRI听力:S. Korea to Tighten Regulations on Plastic Surgery
South Korean authorities are tightening the rules surrounding plastic surgeries.
The move is in response to a growing number of medical incidents.
A 50-year-old Chinese woman has been declared brain dead after undergoing a face-lift operation this past month.
Oh Gyeong-im is the director of the Gangnam Medical Tour Center.
"The government is creating protocols and stricter regulations regarding plastic surgery to ensure people's safety. Patients need to double-check that the clinic they're going to is a certified and reputable establishment."
The cosmetic surgery in South Korea is an 80-million US dollar a year industry.
Close to three-quarters of foreigners who go 'under the knife' in South Korea for plastic surgery are from China.
The number of Chinese nationals undergoing cosmetic enhancements in South Korea has increased 20-fold over the past 5-years.
