With the continuous development of medical cosmetology-related technologies, the public's enthusiasm for medical cosmetology has also increased. However, while the medical cosmetology industry is booming, there are more and more news reports of failures due to improper operations during medical cosmetology.
case 1
Fat injection into facial blood vessels, acute fat embolism and brain herniation in the right cerebral hemisphere
The Nanning Health and Family Planning Supervision Institute in China suddenly received a complaint call from a man saying that his girlfriend Xiaoman fell into a coma after getting a "beauty injection" in a beauty salon and was being rescued in the intensive care unit of the hospital. It turned out that the "beautician" accidentally injected fat into the facial blood vessels during Xiaoman's autologous fat transplantation facial filling, causing acute fat embolism and brain herniation in Xiaoman's right cerebral hemisphere.
Case 2: Hyaluronic acid injected into blood vessels, causing embolism of ophthalmic artery, retinal artery, and cerebral artery, resulting in blindness
A medical institution performed rhinoplasty on a female patient. When injecting hyaluronic acid, the hyaluronic acid was mistakenly injected into the blood vessels. After identification, the patient was found to have embolism of ophthalmic artery, retinal artery, and cerebral artery due to facial injection, leaving her with a level 5 blindness in her right eye, which has reached the standard of severe injury.
Case 3: Cutting blood vessels during surgery caused bleeding in the jaw, and blood entered the trachea and caused death by suffocation
In 2010, Wang Bei, a "Super Girl" from Chengdu, China, underwent zygomatic bone reduction and mandibular reduction surgery in a hospital in Wuhan. During the operation, the surgeon performed improperly and cut blood vessels during the mandibular reduction surgery, causing bleeding in the jaw area, and blood entered the trachea and caused death by suffocation.
The human face is densely covered with many tiny blood vessels, which are closely linked to the head and inner eyes. Once the drug or fat is injected into the blood vessels improperly, the drug will enter the eyes, brain and other important human tissues through the blood circulation system, causing serious consequences such as loss of consciousness, blindness and even death.
There are several major facial blood vessels on both sides of the nose, such as the medial canthal vein and external nasal vein. During medical beauty related injection operations, if the drug is injected into the blood vessels improperly, it may cause central retinal vein thrombosis, resulting in blindness, brain damage and other consequences.
By using the vein viewer device, the distribution of facial veins can be observed, assisting medical staff in performing safer and more reasonable drug injections. Avoid related complications caused by drug liquid, fat fillers, etc. entering the blood circulation system. This technology has been popularized in developed countries.The commonly used parts in facial medical beauty are mainly: around the eyes (wrinkles/eye bags), forehead (forehead wrinkles), mandible (bone cutting, face thinning), mouth (lip augmentation, nasolabial folds).
The vascular imager can accurately and clearly display the veins around the eyes, forehead, mandible and other parts, which can assist medical staff to more accurately grasp the location of drug injection and better ensure the safety of patients.
our portable vein viewer has served many medical beauty institutions such as the Plastic Surgery Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences with its simple, easy-to-use, safe and effective product features. We also hope to serve more medical beauty institutions and ensure the medical safety of more people who love beauty.
