These people all look like they're wearing someone else's face and it's terrifying

"Im 69 but I want to look 13!" Dr Kim:"Hold my Scalpel"

Guys, and this actually goes for everything in life: if you see red flags, your Spidey sense kicking in, you’re not getting clear answers, or even if you’re just feeling bad ju ju about something - RUN. Turn around, leave, and never look back. We have a sixth sense for a reason and we shouldn’t ignore it. When we question our natural instincts and choose to ignore our urge to get away, trouble is right behind. In this situation, there are enough plastic surgeons in the world. We have lots of choices. We don’t need some elusive, non transparent, cheap clinic to mess with our faces. ☮️

To quote the amazing Luxeria, “Cheap work ain’t good, and good work ain’t cheap!”

[Dr.UldenWascht]

I'm sorry and ashamed to admit this, but every person coming out of surgery performed by Dr. Kim is primed to play a Gotham villain.
Prayers to the victims.

Dr Gary, you speak like a therapist, and I’m honestly complementing you.
I see both a therapist, and a psychiatrist. They help me do this thing called life.
Thank you for your channel, and thank you for being you.
🌸

The patients’ ear lobes stick out after the extreme surgery shown.

[joko]

I’ve gotta give that TikTok guy a lot of kudos for such a mature and insightful commentary at only 21.

[followtheredhat]

Dr Gary is being extremely diplomatic. Everything about a set up like this is absolutely dangerous from the very beginning: not knowing who the surgeon is, preparing for surgery with photos on whats app (!!!!), to blatant lies and image manipulation, this is taking your life in your hands for an extremely questionable result. Better to look old (and none of these people looked bad, simply not young anymore, and those in their 30s and 40s still looked reasonably young) than risk your life with a questionable surgeon in a foreign country. 🤦‍♀️

23:30 As a Taiwanese-American, I just want to point out that "Kim" is not a Chinese/Mandarin last name. On the flipside, Kim is one of the most common Korean last names. This is clearly an attempt to mislead and capitalize on the recent popularity of all things South Korean (K-pop, K-beauty...etc.), and the general knowledge that cosmetic surgery is common there. This bait-and-switch is a common tactic and so embarrassing. If you are good at and proud of what you do and can stand behind your work with full transparency, shady marketing schemes like this wouldn't be necessary. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Echoing all the comments here on the terrifying results and hoping all the patie- er, victims are at least still safe and healthy.

[yewang]

That surgeon is straight out of a horror film.

These are Chinese surgeons using Korean names ("Dr. Kim") on social media because Korea has a good reputation for facial plastics, especially for the Asian face type which is a huge market. Another market is Westerners looking for cheaper procedures that are still relatively high quality. Often times flights, accommodation, procedure fee added together is still cheaper than getting the procedure in North America or Europe, and Korea has relatively high standards compared to other non-western countries. But since these surgeons are not Korean, most of the quality and reputation associated with that does not apply.

[dwarfbunni]

Seems like one of those "clinics" where people are just lined up next to each other in rows like you would during a trip to the salon but everyone's getting cut open like something outta a horror movie.

[captainjoy]

Dude is transforming people into default characters.. they all kind of look the same. He learned one routine and plasters that on everyone that comes to him

[elinorregina]

There is NO way filters are not being used. You cannot come out of such an extreme procedure without noticeable bruising. Especially around the eyes. I had raccoon eyes for days and I've no doubt that all of these people had blepharoplasties.

[Jacesmith]

They look like cat people. It's truly terrifying 😳

[pablovandres]

Doctor Linkov, did you notice how the earlobes of all the patients in the pictures looked not only similar, but completely different from the earlobes in the 'before" pictures ? Or am I seeing something that nobody else is ?

[darlingusapettee]

I must say that I looked at Dr. Linkov's before and after photos on his website and was sooo pleased to see he didn't try to re-make the client's face, but made them look more like they had they awoke from the best night's sleep ever and looking forward to a happy, relaxing future. I am so impressed with his artistic eye with a huge dose of realism. Subtle yet great improvement.

[rmsgirl]

This is the best channel I’ve discovered. Very informative, educational and entertaining. I like this Dr. Linkov person. He’s very transparent and seems so sincere.

Thank you for the reminder about anesthesia. As a natural redhead, I have experienced problems with anesthesia (waking up in the middle of surgery). I can't imagine flying to China, where they do not have natural redheads and are likely unaware of this issue, and having it happen. I'm glad now that anesthesiologists seem to be aware of it now... about 30 years since it happened to me. I always am sure to mention it pre-op!
