How many doctors will admit when they made mistakes and improve their processes because of it? It is a rare thing. Dr Youn is so genuine and transparent. We love a humble doc!
Exactly. It's super important though, and honestly this just makes me trust and respect him more. Mistakes happen, and it's how they respond to them that tells you what kind of person and doctor they are.
Um, in my experience, I've only had one Dr who always thought he was right. He worked in mental health. The rest have always been willing to admit when they were wrong.
@@tryingtomakesenseoftheverse Yeah, it's a problem. I think women deal with the god complex far more often than men do. Even female physicians have treated me this way. In fact, I see less dismissive behavior from male physicians. I've had to request male doctors many times.
@@cjpietropinto9293 That's pretty awful. I'm disabled and chronically ill, so I see a lot of doctors and specialists. Most of my psychiatrists, especially, have been wonderful. But the one psychiatrist I have had problems with was just the fucking worst. She couldn't see logic or reason. I think some, especially younger psychiatrists (the doctor I had problems with was right out of med school) think of themselves as better, and above those who develop mental illness.

@@Lowlight91 i didn’t doubt it. I’ve worked with a ton of surgeons and the number who won’t admit an error (beyond maybe some funny residency stories) is shockingly high. Everyone makes mistakes. I prefer someone who admits it.
Oh! Story (if anyone cares) I have a rare variant of a rare condition, equalling a condition that (at last check) about 60-70 people have been dx’d with worldwide. I was in the hospital for surgery related to a complication from it, and the hospitalist said “I have never heard of this; would you like me to find you another hospitalist?” He’s my doctor to this day.
I wouldn't trust him are you serious? He should have sent that girl to the ER as soon as he heard something was wrong. Especially considering execution. Her nose could have died. I hope she looks normal and healed okay. The only good thing about this doctor is well, he'll explain exactly what went wrong with you
This is why he warns people to think well about surgery or alteration decisions 'cause none of this is a joke. Little mistake may give you severe complications.
I think he's wonderful. I've seen videos and comments from women on Real Self with horror stores about their procedures where the doctors don't care nor admit their mistakes.
Yeah some plastic surgeons seem to do anything just for money on mentally ill patients. I love how he wants people to really think about it and to see that it's more a last resort.

It's a sign of a good doctor when they do as much as physically possible to help with complications. It reminds me of when my mum had a stroke and I actually called a family friend before an ambulance. I knew it was a stroke but my mum was insistent that it was just a migraine, my dad was several hours away and I had to take care of my sister and foreign exchange student so this family friend went with my mum to the hospital. This family friend lived really close to us, is really close to my mum and also the father is a highly rated neurosurgeon. My mum managed to convince the hospital she was just having a bad migraine and is the type to minimise any health problems she's having. So this guy rushed to see her, recognised it was a stroke, and rushed to take care of her. I was later told that if I had waited even for just an hour she wouldn't be alive today.
Next time call 911 IMMEDIATELY. It could mean life of death and recovery complications. Every second that passed by could mean years of recovery. PLEASE never hesitate to call.
I'm sorry, but no. Don't call 911 in a situation like that. If the person doesn't want to go to the hospital, an ambulance will do whatever the person says. They will refuse to take someone against their will. So the right thing to do is convince the person, whatever it takes. Maybe you can call in secret and then convince the person before they arrive, but you have to be very careful if that's your plan.
one of the toughest parts of caring for someone is when they refuse medical care and no one will help, because they've refused. The problem is it's so hard to know if they're "of sound mind" when they make that choice. People who are having strokes, or medical emergencies, might not think clearly in the moment. Just like we might not think clearly if we're tired, scared, or in pain. People underestimate how exhaustion or brain fog affects our ability to make rational choices. It's a real moral dilemma to force a person to seek treatment when they are in an emergency situation, and you can't tell if they're in a fog.

I got vascular occlusion when a doctor injected me. I was the last patient and it was nighttime. I had a very slow capillary refill and mottled appearance around my lip. He brushed it off as bruising. That night I had to drive on my bike in the rain and wind for 2 hours to get to the emergency room where they didnt know what to do. All clinics were closed so i had to wait 10 frustating hours. In these 10 hours i applied warm compresses and rigorously massaged my lip. I woke up with my lip turned black. The following day I went to another clinic where they finally injected hyaluronidase. In the end only a superficial layer of skin died and i made a full recovery. Some doctors have such big egos. All the doctors i spoke to after confirmed it was indeed vascular occlusion. I am thankful that i am a dermal therapist and know what signs to look out for. Imagine if i had no medical background and just took the doctors word for it.
@@jankochanowskikozieagu2305 i dont know. But in hindsight I don’t think it would have mattered. there is not a lot of knowledge amongst emergency responders about cosmetic complications Im not sure they would have been able to help.

Oh man. In an otherwise serious story, to see the drawing that accompanied "parked (the car) where I'm not supposed to" made me suddenly laugh out loud.
You sir are the rare ,caring and compassionate doctor we need more of. I’m 39 and luckily don’t have wrinkles yet but I say bring them on, I personally will never have purely cosmetic surgery but no hate, that’s just me.
@S. KO Well good news is you can do whatever you want. You have bodily autonomy. I meant no disrespect to anyone. I stated what was right for me personally.
The sign of a good doctor is thousands of surgeries without complications. The mark of an amazingly gifted surgeon? Thinking in an emergency, learning from complications, humility, honesty & excellent bedside manner as well as respect for colleagues that report to you. Well done, doc!
Sadly there’s not enough doctors or medical professionals in general that will admit to making mistakes, I love that you admit to that and show how you learned from it. Also I can’t imagine that amount of stress you were under while doing a 6 hour surgery while worrying about the other patient and what might happen to her
I love the fact that he explains the situation, what went wrong and how he did to save his patient because health comes first than any cosmetic result. Knowing that he's the one telling his own mistakes and lessons learned, also how this particular situation changed the way he practices now.
I could imagine no better doctor than Dr. Youn. If I ever consider going through with my plan of having plastic surgery I would definitely consider flying to the US and booking an appointment in his office.
I'm a dermatologic surgeon and I admire you skills in dealing with such nightmare complications, not to mention how brave and humble you are by sharing all these experiences with others. Thank you so much, you're truly an inspiration.
The beginning story of this video brought to mind the day I was in the orthopedist's office for Synvisc shots in my knees, and the power went out a second after the syringe went into my joint. This office had no windows and was pitch black. The nurse yelled, "I have a needle in a knee!" and three other nurses came running with phones to light up the injection site long enough to complete the procedure. We waited for the power to return before shooting up the other knee.
thanks for reminding me to never ever get plastic surgery unless my nose literally falls off. also... thanks for sharing for real. These stories are important for everyone to hear
Try being the patient having an amputation done below the knee and because of Covid you get discharged about an hour after surgery. It was a good thing I didn’t know at the time that my hemoglobin and hematocrit were as low as they were. But it sure explained why I was so queasy and lightheaded for about a week after surgery.
Thats horrible.. they should have at least monitored you for a few days. Thats super major surgery. They usually draw labs and check your bloodwoek before you are discharged
Not only did I get discharged that same day but I had to have a revision exactly 6 months later. But it’s all good. I’m waiting for my permanent leg. They are building now. So I will have it in about 2 weeks
@@dwentlandt1022 thatsmessed up. Probably could have been prevented if they had monitored you better.. so glad to hear that u are okay. Good luck to u on the rest of your journey..
My bias is Asian men because I find them to be genuine, humble and honest. Dr. Youn is no 7:20 exception. You rock, doc! BTW, cartoon Dr. Youn does not do you justice!
This is a year old but I gotta tell you, you're a great doctor. I work in healthcare, I'm a lab tech - and there's just not a lot of doctors like you. I wish there were more like you.
You are so brave and have so much integrity to tell these stories! I don't know of any other doctor that would be so real as to do this. And, so glad all turned out okay.
I can't even imagine how stressful and scary it was. I'm glad everything ended well! It's also so reassuring to know how doctors care about their patients. And it's nice to know that if something goes wrong, it might be saved (Sorry but I almost threw out over the second one haha)
Dr Yoon The biggest complement I can give you is “I like you” My personal experience is 40 plus years in film and video production and post production in Hollywood, Santa Monica and Seattle I’ve seen and worked with so many stars of the big screen and small screen. What you are doing to help educate your audience across a very diverse age range and personal needs while being a real person on camera is priceless You’re a natural I’m so happy I found your channel Cheers to you and your staff.
Hi , I write stories and scripts for films and series (romance, drama, music) and video clips. I also write songs, poetry, advertising and marketing content. In various languages (Arabic, French, Turkish and English) Can you help me by directing me to a production company to suggest some of my work to? Thanks in advance
Although my family never forced me, my mom always wanted me to be a doctor. She always talks about how being a Doctor is a noble job and you get so many blessings from so many people.
Im a nurse and love what i do having a Dr teach you and have faith in your judgment as a nurse is the best….at the end of the day we want the best for our patient as a team
Dr. Youn, Ego could is a dangerous thing for Doctors like yourself. Thank goodness you recognized the severity of the issues and acted quickly and correctly. Not many Doctors will go on youtube and tell the world the times their patients had complications. Bravo to you for laying it out there.
Oh yes. Bleeding can be a bugger of an incident after surgery. When I got a tonsillectomy in my early 20's I went home after the procedure feeling no pain, happy as a lark, and super sleepy. Woke up in the middle of the night so nauseous that I ran to the bathroom and only made it as far as in the door and to the sink. I vomited up tons of blood. I filled the entire sink up with all the coagulated blood that filled my stomach as I slept. As well as all the fresh blood pouring out of my mouth. I had to bang on the wall to get my dad to wake up and take me to the ER. I ended up having a blood vessel in my throat that was weakened by the surgery and popped sometime in the night. At the time I went to the ER I was still not feeling any pain from my surgery but I tell you when they cauterized that area I felt tons of pain. And felt so much pain after that, that I refused to even drink water for a solid week.
This happened to my ex boyfriend. It was terrifying. He woke me up at like 5 in the morning just spewing and choking on blood. I rushed him to the emergency room and he coughed blood all over me and his truck. 😳
By the way Dr Youn ... I just saw that there is still not a playlist for "my plastic surgery horror Stories" on your channel 😂. Please continue making content like that because it is so unique, runny and teaching in the same time!
Horrific stories, hysterical cartoons.. Woah !!!!!! Absolutely terrifying !!! You came to the rescue, I would totally trust you to do my surgeries, given I ever have one, I'm way to chicken lol Thanks for sharing, Dr Youn, goes to show how real and honest you are.. you're a beautiful human🌹Peace & Positive Vibes always ✌❤🤗🌺
I've never seen D.Y personally, just his injection staff, but holy cow, his bedside manner seems amazing... the gentle manner and compassion he has for his patients ♡
This is where paying attention to your classes and training is very important. Thank you Dr.Youn. Even though you made a mistake you did everything you could to help her get better. You’re a true doctor. We need more caring doctors like you in the world. 💜
Dr Youn, I really appreciate your channel. After I had my second son 2.5 years ago I learned I have mammary hypoplasia. I've always been self conscious about my breasts however I never knew quite what was wrong until he was born (though we speculated at the birth of my oldest.) After I found out I cannot breastfeed sufficiently, I started to ponder the idea of getting implants or a fat transfer. I thought watching your videos would make me want to do so even more, but really instead- along with the love and support of my amazing husband- I have grown to be content with what God has given me. I do have a lot of fatty tissue in the chest and I consider myself very blessed to be able to have a relatively normal appearance. Keep up the good work👍
You've convinced me that never having any work done wad the right decision. I can live with my turkey waddle neck and my jowls and my down turned mouth. It is o.k. that gravity is pulling my whole face downward. I can live with it! Thank you Dr. Youn! 💙 👏👏👏😁
These sound like dumb mistakes I’d 100% make myself. I’m happy you’re sharing them because it makes me feel better as a medical professional to know it’s ok to admit mistakes and most importantly learn from them. I feel like as a young person I can be too optimistic that things will work out ok with patients but ur stories remind me that I should be more cautious and remember that things can definitely go wrong
Dr. Youn, I love that you are talking about your “mistakes.” I’m a lawyer and I have made some mistakes about which, at the time, I was terrified, but all was fixable and fixed. I love the cartoon you!
Dr. Young, this is the exact reason I want to come to you for my possible plastic surgeries, I trust you and I feel that you wouldn't lie to me. I thank you for your honesty
I will read your book. My adrenaline is high just from hearing those stories. You were on it, no denying that! And you pulled them through. A true physician.
I admire Dr. Youn’s humility immensely, I wish more doctors would model themselves after his caring and professionalism. I’d trust him with any single procedure I could ever have in my life!!
Dr. Youn, I think it’s amazing how your quick thinking and response helped save the first patients nose and upper lip. But I’m wondering, would the “mistake” be considered a medical error? I mean, could’ve the patient go on and sue? I’m wondering because I’m not from the US, and I assume that her hospitalization would’ve cost her quite a bit of money, plus all of the pain and discomfort. How do medics approach a situation like this?
@@zarasbazaar actually I took care of a patient as a private duty nurse that had a trust fund set up for her long term needs that were due to medical error. My cousin also had huge complication to a GI surgery, with 9 months to recover (he had almost 0 chance of surviving but did), and the hospital comped his extra care because the complications were from medical error (and it didn't involve sueing them, it was just the right thing to do).
wow! those are horror stories, im happy that they went well in the end. and i think this was so helpful to many people, doctors, future doctors, etc, to learn and get educated and get reminded that every single doctor has their problems and all. im happy that you care so much about your patients and that they are all okay in the end, and what you did to help them after what happened to them really helped them and really makes you a good doctor. abd you're so brave for telling your stories, and i feel like they are really helpful. you are a great doctor and you are doing so much for so many people. thank you Dr Youn!
I know at the time this wasn't supposed to be funny, but watching you and how kickass the artist was, I was still smiling watching this! Story number two is why I couldn't become a surgeon :X
That was a really interesting, and informative story, loved the visuals 😂❤ I really respect great doctors and nurses, you guys are very busy and talented too, but only the good ones who don’t forget their compassion and respect for their patients.
I had a similar experience to the second story when I got top surgery! My surgeon does the exact same at Dr Youn (outpatient, but kept overnight), and the next morning, I had developed a hematoma on my right side. They promptly brought me back into OR to fix it, and I left the hospital that evening, but I didn’t realize just how bad it could have been until later! I was lucky to have such great care, just like what Dr Youn shows his patients.
What a nightmare-being in the middle of that six-hour surgery, then having the new emergency 😲. So glad you got through that okay. Then the facelift emergency and bleeding complication Omg, how scary.
I appreciate your confidence in the nurse. Our desire is to do what is best for our patients, and it is great when we feel we have the doc's support (when practicing within our scope)
"I belive you will always do the right thing" just wow. If people said that to each other a little more often, maybe we all would have been in a better place now.
May God bless you and keep you and your patients safe. I love that you admit and learn from your mistakes. I love that you were very kind and reassured your nurse. I'm a nurse that no longer works clinically because having someone's life in my hands is very stressful and it was just too much for me especially when being expected to care for more patients due to not enough staff.
Eu amo o fato de que o Dr. Youn admite os próprios erros e tenta tirar deles o melhor. Erros acontecem para todos os humanos, e falar abertamente sobre eles gera diálogos muito importantes para nossa saúde!
I’m curious, did you/the hospital cover her medical expenses after the complications of the first story?? I’m not sure what the protocol is here so I wanna know ☺️
Yes, I'm wondering the same thing. B/c we all know that medical insurance does not normally cover cosmetic procedures, so what happens when cosmetic procedures have bad outcomes?
@ Maria Trinidad Everyone's insurance is different but normally, any issue directly related to a procedure that has a complication within 24 hours is still considered under the same procedure. Plus, this one had the potential for necrosis, death of skin/ tissue which could ultimately lead to further surgery & skin grafts. So, its in the Insurance co.'s best interest to cover what Dr. Youn did as the least expensive treatment.
Wow, the effort and care of Dr. Youn is amazing. And all that because of unnecessary beauty operations. People are putting themselves in life danger just to look "better". And in some hospitals there are some doctors and especially nurses that treat you like an unconvenience (not to say like sh*t) when you have some medical problem that is also life-threatening but it is not even your fault. Dr. Youn on the other side is really passionate about his work.
Holy fork man... that first story sending me into full panic mode and I wasn't even involved in any way. I could just imagine both your, and the patient's feelings. I need to chill with my empathy.
Great video! Doctors are people too and they may make mistakes. My mom is a gyno and she has made a couple in her life, in both cases leaving her a nervous wreck. I grew up knowing that things happen. It's important for people to know that most doctors do their best but there are no guarantees.
I can't imagine your stress level because I'm stressed out just watching this video. I have so much respect for you and your work Dr. Youn and appreciate you telling us your "horror story". Now I have to go have a cup of "relax" tea!
I am not a squeamish person, but that last story got me. I am so relieved she healed beautifully and that that nurse was there to quell the situation as much as possible. Thank you, Dr youn, for your professionalism and compassion and honesty in your practice and on your channel.
Kudos to you Dr. Youn for handling the emergencies and your patients so quickly and being so caring and kind. I cannot even imagine how one could be so agile like u in situations like this 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 ❤💯💯💯💯

Oh man. In an otherwise serious story, to see the drawing that accompanied "parked (the car) where I'm not supposed to" made me suddenly laugh out loud.
And his stride up the stairs took me out too!🤣😂 His cartoon artist definitely needs a raise lol
The pictures that accompanied the stories were by themselves stories!
@@Jeaux_xo so you're perfectly fine with him holding a saber at Jabba the Hutt?! 😆😆😆⚰

the stairs drawing right after too lmao
I love this video so much hahaha
@@misshoney2006 it’s so fitting to his personality 😂
You sir are the rare ,caring and compassionate doctor we need more of. I’m 39 and luckily don’t have wrinkles yet but I say bring them on, I personally will never have purely cosmetic surgery but no hate, that’s just me.
Never say never. LOL
It's amazing how much wrinkles and even worse, saggy skin will do to change your mind.
@@calypsodream8059 i think wrinkles can look very good! I’ve seen a lot of women with many wrinkles and they were so gorgeous and looked elegant
@S. KO Well good news is you can do whatever you want. You have bodily autonomy. I meant no disrespect to anyone. I stated what was right for me personally.
The sign of a good doctor is thousands of surgeries without complications. The mark of an amazingly gifted surgeon? Thinking in an emergency, learning from complications, humility, honesty & excellent bedside manner as well as respect for colleagues that report to you. Well done, doc!
Alot of bad stories about plastic surgery 😕 this is gonna be so lit 🔥
I see you everywhere 😂
@@Mllemama1 I was about to say that 😂
You are a person of culture, I see! We watch all the same ppl.
@@Mllemama1 same
I appreciate the illustrations that supports the story 🙌🏼
I wonder if you are a teacher.
As a Career RN, I admire your work ethic and demeanor. You truly care about the care you provide and the people you work with. You are Awesome!
Sadly there’s not enough doctors or medical professionals in general that will admit to making mistakes, I love that you admit to that and show how you learned from it. Also I can’t imagine that amount of stress you were under while doing a 6 hour surgery while worrying about the other patient and what might happen to her
I love the fact that he explains the situation, what went wrong and how he did to save his patient because health comes first than any cosmetic result. Knowing that he's the one telling his own mistakes and lessons learned, also how this particular situation changed the way he practices now.
I could imagine no better doctor than Dr. Youn.
If I ever consider going through with my plan of having plastic surgery I would definitely consider flying to the US and booking an appointment in his office.
I'm a dermatologic surgeon and I admire you skills in dealing with such nightmare complications, not to mention how brave and humble you are by sharing all these experiences with others. Thank you so much, you're truly an inspiration.
The beginning story of this video brought to mind the day I was in the orthopedist's office for Synvisc shots in my knees, and the power went out a second after the syringe went into my joint. This office had no windows and was pitch black. The nurse yelled, "I have a needle in a knee!" and three other nurses came running with phones to light up the injection site long enough to complete the procedure. We waited for the power to return before shooting up the other knee.
I’ve had knee injections and this made me ache so much imagining it 😖
This is why I always have my trusty flashlight.
This NEEDS to be a series. I am desperate. This is some good content.
These patients were very lucky to have a very caring doctor
thanks for reminding me to never ever get plastic surgery unless my nose literally falls off. also... thanks for sharing for real. These stories are important for everyone to hear
Try being the patient having an amputation done below the knee and because of Covid you get discharged about an hour after surgery. It was a good thing I didn’t know at the time that my hemoglobin and hematocrit were as low as they were. But it sure explained why I was so queasy and lightheaded for about a week after surgery.
Are you feeling better ?
Thats horrible.. they should have at least monitored you for a few days. Thats super major surgery. They usually draw labs and check your bloodwoek before you are discharged
@@livvvql I am. Thank you for asking.
Not only did I get discharged that same day but I had to have a revision exactly 6 months later. But it’s all good. I’m waiting for my permanent leg. They are building now. So I will have it in about 2 weeks
@@dwentlandt1022 thatsmessed up. Probably could have been prevented if they had monitored you better.. so glad to hear that u are okay. Good luck to u on the rest of your journey..
you are such a responsible and caring doctor. massive props to you, dr youn
My bias is Asian men because I find them to be genuine, humble and honest. Dr. Youn is no 7:20 exception. You rock, doc! BTW, cartoon Dr. Youn does not do you justice!
Bro was scared of being sued 😂
DAMN!! IT MUST HAVE BEEN STRESSFUL both mentally and physically, kudos to you doctor👨⚕️
Army!!
@@possiblyrei 💜💜 also your username 💀💀
@@tanyachauhan1669 yeh lol :)
This is a year old but I gotta tell you, you're a great doctor. I work in healthcare, I'm a lab tech - and there's just not a lot of doctors like you. I wish there were more like you.
You are so brave and have so much integrity to tell these stories! I don't know of any other doctor that would be so real as to do this. And, so glad all turned out okay.
I can't even imagine how stressful and scary it was.
I'm glad everything ended well! It's also so reassuring to know how doctors care about their patients. And it's nice to know that if something goes wrong, it might be saved
(Sorry but I almost threw out over the second one haha)
OMG, these really are horror stories. I feel bad for those women. Happy to be aging gracefully and naturally. Amen.
Dr Yoon
The biggest complement I can give you is “I like you”
My personal experience is 40 plus years in film and video production and post production in Hollywood, Santa Monica and Seattle
I’ve seen and worked with so many stars of the big screen and small screen. What you are doing to help educate your audience across a very diverse age range and personal needs while being a real person on camera is priceless
You’re a natural
I’m so happy I found your channel
Cheers to you and your staff.
Hi , I write stories and scripts for films and series (romance, drama, music) and video clips. I also write songs, poetry, advertising and marketing content. In various languages (Arabic, French, Turkish and English) Can you help me by directing me to a production company to suggest some of my work to?
Thanks in advance
Although my family never forced me, my mom always wanted me to be a doctor.
She always talks about how being a Doctor is a noble job and you get so many blessings from so many people.
Im a nurse and love what i do having a Dr teach you and have faith in your judgment as a nurse is the best….at the end of the day we want the best for our patient as a team
the compassion and transparency of this guy makes him all the better of a person. id be your best friend yo.
Dr. Youn, Ego could is a dangerous thing for Doctors like yourself. Thank goodness you recognized the severity of the issues and acted quickly and correctly. Not many Doctors will go on youtube and tell the world the times their patients had complications. Bravo to you for laying it out there.
Oh yes. Bleeding can be a bugger of an incident after surgery. When I got a tonsillectomy in my early 20's I went home after the procedure feeling no pain, happy as a lark, and super sleepy. Woke up in the middle of the night so nauseous that I ran to the bathroom and only made it as far as in the door and to the sink. I vomited up tons of blood. I filled the entire sink up with all the coagulated blood that filled my stomach as I slept. As well as all the fresh blood pouring out of my mouth. I had to bang on the wall to get my dad to wake up and take me to the ER. I ended up having a blood vessel in my throat that was weakened by the surgery and popped sometime in the night. At the time I went to the ER I was still not feeling any pain from my surgery but I tell you when they cauterized that area I felt tons of pain. And felt so much pain after that, that I refused to even drink water for a solid week.
That must have been HORRIFYING!
Was this an outpatient surgery?
You’d you would be required to stay in hospital overnight.
@@marlenegold280 tonsillectomies are all outpatient now.
This happened to my ex boyfriend. It was terrifying. He woke me up at like 5 in the morning just spewing and choking on blood. I rushed him to the emergency room and he coughed blood all over me and his truck. 😳
Now, here is some realistic and true horror stories. I was watching a lot of horror films and horror stories so make sense why I was reccomended this.
OMG!! These stories are scary. I think it's great you share these experiences, Dr. Youn. Most people don't realize surgery is a big deal!!!
I was on the other end of surgery complications and I wish my doctors had reacted the way you did, Dr. Youn. I admire your honesty.
It's so cool to see someone who really prioritizes natural alternatives and safety over making a profit from doing unnecessary or dangerous operations
By the way Dr Youn ... I just saw that there is still not a playlist for "my plastic surgery horror Stories" on your channel 😂. Please continue making content like that because it is so unique, runny and teaching in the same time!
Horrific stories, hysterical cartoons.. Woah !!!!!! Absolutely terrifying !!! You came to the rescue, I would totally trust you to do my surgeries, given I ever have one, I'm way to chicken lol
Thanks for sharing, Dr Youn, goes to show how real and honest you are.. you're a beautiful human🌹Peace & Positive Vibes always ✌❤🤗🌺
Ditto!
I need more of these stories. Mad props to the artist!
I've never seen D.Y personally, just his injection staff, but holy cow, his bedside manner seems amazing... the gentle manner and compassion he has for his patients ♡
This is where paying attention to your classes and training is very important. Thank you Dr.Youn. Even though you made a mistake you did everything you could to help her get better. You’re a true doctor. We need more caring doctors like you in the world. 💜
Those stories had me on the edge of my seat! Dr. Youn is the real deal.
Dr Youn, I really appreciate your channel. After I had my second son 2.5 years ago I learned I have mammary hypoplasia. I've always been self conscious about my breasts however I never knew quite what was wrong until he was born (though we speculated at the birth of my oldest.) After I found out I cannot breastfeed sufficiently, I started to ponder the idea of getting implants or a fat transfer. I thought watching your videos would make me want to do so even more, but really instead- along with the love and support of my amazing husband- I have grown to be content with what God has given me. I do have a lot of fatty tissue in the chest and I consider myself very blessed to be able to have a relatively normal appearance. Keep up the good work👍
The fact that he shares these stories makes him human and has my respect! Great job doc!!
I love Dr.Youn, he genuinely cares about his patients. I don't want surgery but if I ever do I know who I'm going to- Youn.
wow! I can’t imagine how you felt. Thank goodness everything worked out well because you’re such an experienced, caring surgeon!
Hi Dr Youn love your show! Please ship your skincare to Canada 🍁
Thanks for being so transparent with us!
This is informative, and I am glad you took the time and initiative to help your patients.
OMG, thanks You to be a good doctor and really taking care of your Patients, despite complications and putting your health and work at risk
You've convinced me that never having any work done wad the right decision. I can live with my turkey waddle neck and my jowls and my down turned mouth. It is o.k. that gravity is pulling my whole face downward. I can live with it! Thank you Dr. Youn! 💙 👏👏👏😁
These sound like dumb mistakes I’d 100% make myself. I’m happy you’re sharing them because it makes me feel better as a medical professional to know it’s ok to admit mistakes and most importantly learn from them. I feel like as a young person I can be too optimistic that things will work out ok with patients but ur stories remind me that I should be more cautious and remember that things can definitely go wrong
Dr. Youn, I love that you are talking about your “mistakes.” I’m a lawyer and I have made some mistakes about which, at the time, I was terrified, but all was fixable and fixed. I love the cartoon you!
omfg it took me 7 minutes to realize the office he’s sitting in is a drawing
I didnt notice until you pointed it out
How are y’all so dumb lmaoo 💀
Holy ADHD
@@IncredibleIceCastle damn spot on lmao
@@idkman6403 Why are yall so dumb💀? I'm sorry not being mean just a joke
Dr. Young, this is the exact reason I want to come to you for my possible plastic surgeries, I trust you and I feel that you wouldn't lie to me. I thank you for your honesty
I will read your book. My adrenaline is high just from hearing those stories. You were on it, no denying that! And you pulled them through. A true physician.
He is the most honest doctor. Cant go without blessing him. May god bless him and he be most successful in his career.
Wow! Dr. Your, you handled that like a pro!! Glad you were able to make everything right. A traumatic experience, but a learning one!!🙌🏻🙌🏻💯💕
I deeply respect you opening up about this.
Omgah i love this storytime with illustrations. You are a great storyteller. Favorite doc
I admire Dr. Youn’s humility immensely, I wish more doctors would model themselves after his caring and professionalism. I’d trust him with any single procedure I could ever have in my life!!
Dr. Youn, I think it’s amazing how your quick thinking and response helped save the first patients nose and upper lip. But I’m wondering, would the “mistake” be considered a medical error? I mean, could’ve the patient go on and sue? I’m wondering because I’m not from the US, and I assume that her hospitalization would’ve cost her quite a bit of money, plus all of the pain and discomfort. How do medics approach a situation like this?
The second nightmare is the patient's hospital bill after she was hospitalized. Can you imagine? Now THAT sounds scary...
I would ASSUME that the doc took care of that.
@@carmeng5421 On what planet? The doctor doesn't pay for free medical care just because there was a complication.
Well this is kind of her fault too she insisted on doing it while Dr Youn already said they should do it the other day
@@zarasbazaar actually I took care of a patient as a private duty nurse that had a trust fund set up for her long term needs that were due to medical error. My cousin also had huge complication to a GI surgery, with 9 months to recover (he had almost 0 chance of surviving but did), and the hospital comped his extra care because the complications were from medical error (and it didn't involve sueing them, it was just the right thing to do).
@@zarasbazaar the hospital needs to be paid but the doctor could and should waive his fee.
I love the style of this video! The art is stunning, and the commentary is riveting. Nice work to everyone who contributed to this vid!
wow! those are horror stories, im happy that they went well in the end. and i think this was so helpful to many people, doctors, future doctors, etc, to learn and get educated and get reminded that every single doctor has their problems and all.
im happy that you care so much about your patients and that they are all okay in the end, and what you did to help them after what happened to them really helped them and really makes you a good doctor. abd you're so brave for telling your stories, and i feel like they are really helpful. you are a great doctor and you are doing so much for so many people. thank you Dr Youn!
I know at the time this wasn't supposed to be funny, but watching you and how kickass the artist was, I was still smiling watching this! Story number two is why I couldn't become a surgeon :X
That was a really interesting, and informative story, loved the visuals 😂❤ I really respect great doctors and nurses, you guys are very busy and talented too, but only the good ones who don’t forget their compassion and respect for their patients.
These animations you're throwing in here are absolutely brilliant and I love them
I had a similar experience to the second story when I got top surgery! My surgeon does the exact same at Dr Youn (outpatient, but kept overnight), and the next morning, I had developed a hematoma on my right side. They promptly brought me back into OR to fix it, and I left the hospital that evening, but I didn’t realize just how bad it could have been until later! I was lucky to have such great care, just like what Dr Youn shows his patients.
What a nightmare-being in the middle of that six-hour surgery, then having the new emergency 😲. So glad you got through that okay. Then the facelift emergency and bleeding complication Omg, how scary.
I appreciate your confidence in the nurse. Our desire is to do what is best for our patients, and it is great when we feel we have the doc's support (when practicing within our scope)
Med mal defense paralegal here. How scary! I'm glad everyone ended up ok.
The pure honesty of this guy is amazing…. No wonder ppl just love him. Stay forever blessed in your profession and life with your loved ones sir'…
that second story was wild! i never thought you can scoop out blood like that due to a complication!
You'd be surprised...
@@sharonwolfe5210 i mean i was when i heard this story!
@@riadirige7804 😉
Dr. Youn is such an incredibly talented, caring surgeon. Anyone would be honored to be his patient!
"I belive you will always do the right thing" just wow. If people said that to each other a little more often, maybe we all would have been in a better place now.
May God bless you and keep you and your patients safe. I love that you admit and learn from your mistakes. I love that you were very kind and reassured your nurse. I'm a nurse that no longer works clinically because having someone's life in my hands is very stressful and it was just too much for me especially when being expected to care for more patients due to not enough staff.
Eu amo o fato de que o Dr. Youn admite os próprios erros e tenta tirar deles o melhor. Erros acontecem para todos os humanos, e falar abertamente sobre eles gera diálogos muito importantes para nossa saúde!
What I find so fantastic is the openness and honesty of his work . Great guy !
I’m curious, did you/the hospital cover her medical expenses after the complications of the first story?? I’m not sure what the protocol is here so I wanna know ☺️
Yes, I'm wondering the same thing. B/c we all know that medical insurance does not normally cover cosmetic procedures, so what happens when cosmetic procedures have bad outcomes?
I was wondering that too, it was sort of a bad judgement call and probably not allowed so I’m assuming she could get compensation for it
Well it’s no longer a cosmetic procedure once her life was at risk. I’m sure insurance covered that
You may agree to risks with surgery.
@ Maria Trinidad Everyone's insurance is different but normally, any issue directly related to a procedure that has a complication within 24 hours is still considered under the same procedure.
Plus, this one had the potential for necrosis, death of skin/ tissue which could ultimately lead to further surgery & skin grafts. So, its in the Insurance co.'s best interest to cover what Dr. Youn did as the least expensive treatment.
Wow, the effort and care of Dr. Youn is amazing. And all that because of unnecessary beauty operations. People are putting themselves in life danger just to look "better". And in some hospitals there are some doctors and especially nurses that treat you like an unconvenience (not to say like sh*t) when you have some medical problem that is also life-threatening but it is not even your fault. Dr. Youn on the other side is really passionate about his work.
Holy fork man... that first story sending me into full panic mode and I wasn't even involved in any way. I could just imagine both your, and the patient's feelings. I need to chill with my empathy.
Great video! Doctors are people too and they may make mistakes. My mom is a gyno and she has made a couple in her life, in both cases leaving her a nervous wreck. I grew up knowing that things happen. It's important for people to know that most doctors do their best but there are no guarantees.
This guy is fantastic! I love him for being so honest and sharing real situations that can happen to the best surgeons!
I can't imagine your stress level because I'm stressed out just watching this video. I have so much respect for you and your work Dr. Youn and appreciate you telling us your "horror story". Now I have to go have a cup of "relax" tea!
His honesty is so amazing 😊🥰
I am not a squeamish person, but that last story got me. I am so relieved she healed beautifully and that that nurse was there to quell the situation as much as possible. Thank you, Dr youn, for your professionalism and compassion and honesty in your practice and on your channel.
I love the animation. I also admire you for admitting the mistakes you've made.
This was amazing. Dr. Youn has so much integrity. I have not met too many doctors who are so concerned about their patients they go to these lengths.
That's scary! But I'm glad you made it in time to help these patients!
Kudos to you Dr. Youn for handling the emergencies and your patients so quickly and being so caring and kind. I cannot even imagine how one could be so agile like u in situations like this 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 ❤💯💯💯💯
Wow! Dr. Youn, you have so much guts to continue to be a doctor after these experiences.
