"If you've got cancer, u really don't want to treat that yourself, you really should see an ACTUAL doctor." Really feels like the kind of thing no one should ever have to say. Ever.
Potato pirate, well to be honest there was no mention if she actually did get ride of the cancer by removing the nose. (I believe this black stuff did exactly what it say's it does, by removing the cancer) "Even though it ate her nose" it's actually strange because it's exactly the process doctors do to remove cancers, do the doctors not cut them out?
Wow. She refused to get a surgery to cure a CANCER, but jumped at the chance to have surgery because her nose "Doesn't exactly look the way I was hoping."
My grandmother declined medical treatment for lymphoma, and instead went to a bunch of quacks. One of them was a "Chinese Medicine practitioner" who had her put black salve onto her enlarged lymph nodes in her armpit and on her chest. It created two huge open wounds, one in her armpit, one on her chest, which created "tunnels" that you would be able to fit a finger into, that constantly leaked lymph fluid. The wounds were extremely painful, and never healed for the remaining 18 months of her life. They needed several dressing changes a day, as they were constantly leaking lymph fluid. The pain and discomfort, and the inconvenience of soaking her dressings so fast that she could barely leave her house, severely reduced her quality of life as she slowly died over the next year and a half. The most frustrating thing for me was the fact that she had spent her career as a pharmacist and possessed a great deal of scientific knowledge, yet still fell prey to that disgusting, unethical snake oil peddler. It was very hard for my family to witness, helpless, as she suffered horribly and needlessly.
for real! most people on botched: i was young and desperate to fix my insecurities and made a huge mistake 😔 this lady: i burnt my nose off instead of doing a simple non invasive procedure to deal with my skin cancer and even though i was lucky enough to have a doctor rebuild it and my body not reject my new nose it’s ugly :(((
@@catspajamboree Technically, cancer treatment IS invasive, its a hard process, so hard your hair starts to fall off because of the harshness it brings within (radiation etc etc), but god fucking damn it, she took it quite literal "If theres no nose, theres no nose cancer"
Not always especially with skin cancer. If the affected cells are within a small region that can be removed with one surgery sometimes there is no need to undergo radiation.
@@jessicadias5014 true, in fact there's actually a cream used to remove (potential) skin cancers before they worsen. It makes the patient go quite red but it is very effective.

Kimmy Ball I’m not trying to belittle anyone, just it was a silly mistake that caused her a lot of pain. I’m glad videos like these exists so we can earn others from doing the same but honestly what she did was quite foolish overall, doesn’t make her less of a person though so I hope she’s doing well
Kimmy Ball I was not trying to belittle her, I was judging her actions not the person she is.

Also, people will learn trough this video that the best way to treat cancer is by going to the doctor.

I know someone who was informed that she had breast cancer, she could've had surgery done, but she refused to because she wanted to keep her breasts. That was the last thing I heard her say. She died later that year, and I just can't help but feel like her decision was really tragic.
That's exactly what happened to my oldest sister. She'd always been extremely vain and when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and was advised to have her breast amputated, she flatly refused, saying: "I'm not letting them "mutilate" me!" So of she went trying out Chinese "cures" and mystic powders until it was too late so that even a belated operation couldn't save her. It just shows how vanity can sometimes literally kill you. MsG
@@EvelynL.1112 Would you rather look like shit the rest of your life or live a year looking like yourself? Pick one. If you picked the first option, you must not be using your body, unfortunately. Or you just didn't think it through.
@@danate3849 yikes. If you chose the second one you didn’t think it through. She could get implants after...idk that’s just sad to chose your looks over your family, friends, career, hobbies, future, etc and anything else that makes life worth living. Super super sad. I could understand if maybe you were a burn victim or an acid attack victim and even people who have endured such horrible tragedies continue to live And find value in their life. By choosing to die for the sake of your appearance you’re saying the only value you hold as a human and that your life holds is your beauty. So sad
I'm so glad that she ended up with this kind of positive result at the end, but I really wish that she had just let a doctor surgically remove the affected tissue in the first place and had the resultant excision site seen to by a plastic surgeon. She could have saved herself so much pain and emotional trauma.
People are desperate for easy solutions. Don't think of consequences... like in my country, health care is free. And yet people brag about never seeing a doctor. I don't think they realize ignorance is not always blizz. Like you could walk around with a ton of preventable issues, that actually lower your quality of life without knowing it... like even just fatigue, or exhaustion could have simple solutions that a doctor can figure out with a simple blood test. Maybe you need vitamins, maybe your heart is not getting enough oxygen because you have low iron. Like so many people CAN'T seek medical help because their countries do not have free health care, and have to live like that and just accept it. It actually annoys me a lot when people think not seeing a doctor for no apparent reason for 30 yrs is something to brag about... like you can adapt to a lot of things. Find your own ways of coping. But why do that, if a supplement etc might actually save you all that... I'm a very curious person, so I probably go to the doctor too often, but I also have a lot of different issues with my health that I've ignored for ages. Like I have chronic iron deficiency anemia... i didn't have it treated until I was in my twenties, and when I got that first blood transfusion? (Actually three bags, but still), I felt fucking invincible. Like I had so much energy I literally did not know what to do with myself. I've always struggled with low energy etc, and felt like a zombie. Then suddenly I was superman. I could walk for hours without passing out or feel tired (more than aching muscles afterwards but that's pretty normal when you increase activity), I finally got the energy to live. And that was caused by something they could find by simply poking my finger... so yeah. I'd rather go to a doctor once too often, than wait til it's too late... but a lot of people just... don't use doctors how they should use them... Dr Mike talks about that in his videos, he likes it when a patient can come to him for just a check up without necessarily looking for anything specific. Because then he can keep track of their overall health and then prevent something before it becomes a genuine problem.
I've had Skin Cancer several times and the last bout of it had portions of my upper nose and side of my eye removed, the Mohr procedure was used. Cancer is nothing to play with or take gambles with.

This is the first time I've heard about black salve. I'm glad this woman was willing to share her experience so we can all learn from her mistakes. That stuff is terrifying.
Agreed. Everyone is bashing her, but I think she learned her lesson. Instead, I think this will probably prevent others considering off the books solutions too.
It’s been around for a while but probably wasn’t as common with social media. I’ve heard of black salve years ago and only remember because I just thought it was fucking dumb
As a medical researcher, I must say: Black salve definitely worked as intended. Admittedly, chemically excising half of your nose to kill cancerous cells seems a bit extreme, but hey.
But what if the cancer metastasized elsewhere in her body? Don't they typically recommend chemotherapy to prevent this sort of thing? I recall seeing another video where a farmer noticed a suspicious looking mole on his arm and cut it off with a pocket knife, only to die from skin cancer metastases in the brain. After all this, the woman may yet be doomed.
@@irongolem123 If skin cancer metastasizes, further treatment like chemo or radiation would usually be recommended yes. They would run more tests and either recommend further treatment or be considered cancer-free. If you have had melanoma (skin cancer) you have a higher risk of getting it again so follow ups and self-checks would be extra important.
My husband had skin cancer on his nose. He had it treated the normal way. One small surgery with local anesthetic in an afternoon. You have to look really hard to know he had skin removed. The doctor did a great job & insurance paid for everything. This lady went through misery for nothing.
She could have avoided all of this if she had just went to the surgeon the first time around. What motivated her to find this "alternative?" Did she use black salve because it was cheaper and she was worried about not being able to afford surgery? Did she simply prefer natural remedies over science?
Her doctor told her she would likely need Mohs surgery (which is the forehead skin flap thing) and she looked up pictures and got scared of it - some how the black salve seemed less scary?
@@Platysmapus Clearly they lyin. If we had a noninvasive cream that could treat cancer without damaging your healthy tissue then wouldn't your doctor mention it?
My mother used this stuff on a "suspicious lump" last year. It was so painful, and the escar made me heave to look at it. I'm so thankful she didn't disfigure herself with it. And she didn't even have cancer to begin with! She just got scared and slapped on some "natural" remedy instead of going to the doctor like a normal person! Being the child of an "all-natural" Facebook mom is incredibly stressful. I dread the day anyone in my family really gets cancer
That’s so sad but I wished she went to a doctor since it wasn’t cancer they probably would have given her some cream or antibiotics or something. I hope she stops being all natural. Natural can help but it’s not something you use on something that you think is cancer. I’m glad it wasn’t cancer and I hope she’s ok I hope no one in your family gets cancer. ❤️
I'm sorry for you. I know how stressful that is. My oldest brother is an antivaxxer, antimedicine, antigovernment nutter. He has 2 children and they are unvaccinated and he treats their illness with dumb things like potatoes on the feet. He thinks the pandemic is a government hoax. It is very stressful.
Cancer is the problem. People like her think cancer or tumour is the different cell in our body. Nope, you all wrong... cancer or tumour is exactly same DNK like yours or another point of view- our cell mutated rapidly and cancer is the name of these cells. Actually, all of our cells mutated, but most of them just die.
To see this surgeon being transparent and clear that integrated care is how he feels medicine is best practiced, but also stressing that evidence based medicine wins outright in serious situations was super relieving to me
I agree! Her nose really didn't look bad after the surgery considering what happened to it in the first place. They didn't mess up the surgery and ruin her face, it's just that there was a little excess fat in there.
My husband had melanoma. A friend of ours tried to get him to use black salve. We skipped that recommendation and followed his oncologist's treatment plan. He lived with melanoma for fourteen years. He passed away in January of this year.
Yeah it’s interesting that she was skeptical of the medical science behind treating cancer but was all on aboard for the cosmetic surgery without hesitation
So much respect to people in the medical field who see and deal with things like this. It’s actually terrifying even thinking that situations like this could have been in my hands if I’d chosen to go to med school. Very glad I chose architecture LMAO
Every time I hear “holistic”, “eastern medicine”, homeopathy...I get skirmish. My friend died of ovary cancer, a totally curable cancer, because she refuse to get a real treatment, going to all sorts of alternative medicine bs. When finally she went to a doctor he send her straight to hospital where she died few weeks later.
That is so sad. I am very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how heart breaking it is to lose someone to something because they refuse proper treatment. Thank you for sharing your story.
The way I see it Eastern Medicine should be seen as just a ‘boost’ to an already established Western medicine treatment or as a last resort if Western medicine hasn’t worked. I recently discovered I have pretty serious chronic sinusitis. Somehow I ended up with an infection in the bones of my face and some parts of my throat and neck from this. It took a long time and seeing many different doctors before I finally received a proper diagnosis because the infection could only be detected by an MRI (which I finally received after suffering with choking/suffocating feelings for more than a month) and many of the doctors wouldn’t take me seriously and kept telling me I just had a cold and anxiety. I felt completely helpless with Western Medicine so I turned to acupuncture. Fortunately I then found the right doctor who found the problem and has now prescribed me antibiotics and some other medicines to treat the infection. But I still continue to do acupuncture too because I believe it can help alongside the Western medications. I feel that Eastern Medicine should never be used alone without first trying Western medicine. But I also believe that sometimes Western Medicine alone cannot help either.
@@leemana352 I think that rather than differentiating between eastern and western medicine, it is even more about using safe alternative or traditional cultural remedies that pre-dated modern medical practices in combination with modern medical practices. Emphasis on safe, because putting butter on a burn may be a cultural tradition and more natural/alternative, but it is not safe or effective. Acupuncture, when done by someone with proper training, can be great for symptom management even though it is not a cure.
Lee Mana the doctors told my friend that the acupuncture that she did probably aggravated her cancer because upset the tumor. The vast, way vast, majority of eastern medicine is harmful or just placebo at best. I lived in Asia, the doctors would say things like “if you have back pain, don’t drink beer” or after feeling your pulse on your wrist “you have a liver problem” , or tell you about Fung shui to cure your sinusite. Easter medicine prescribes rhino’s horn powder or bear bile,which besides been dangerous are I inhumane to the animals. Cupping, largely popular in china, is absurd. Acupuncture is placebo, you may have your symptoms alleviated a little, due to placebo effect. Eastern medicine for the most part should be banned.
I had a grandmother that decided to use black salve instead of going to chemo/surgery for her breast cancer. It was recommended by her doctor, and she ended up developing gangrene and dying from it. This is why I listen to my doctors and read up on everything, especially if the doctor prescribes something that is questionable. Thankfully my other grandmother chose to go the chemo/mastectomy route for her cancer, and so far it's looking good. Here's hoping she pulls through o3ob
My GF literally bought black salve today I run toward my GF took the black salve yeeted it to the trash can showed here these vid and she didn't believe and we go to here private doctor and explained, thanks allot I save another stupid person
I hope so, too. Her original lesion didn’t look like a melanoma, but that doesn’t mean she can’t get one somewhere else! I hope she’s more cautious about the sun, too.
@@danate3849 ik Ur try8ng to be like passive and let people choose but that's the most generic as thing I've ever heard. People like her chosen their own way and look at her now. Yikes
I was in a fb group for black salve, some of them would put it on their animals/kids & then act shocked when they'd get reported to the proper authorities..like wtaf is wrong with some people?!
As part of my surgical tech internship, I interned for an excellent surgeon at his private surgical facility. I can't stress enough to people to get the best surgeon possible. People, this is an ART, as well as medicine. Your surgeon should be as much an artist as a good surgeon. I've worked for non artist type Plastics, and the difference is day and night. Pony up the bucks and get the best.
I’m pretty sure the black salve killed it. Cancer is just cells and she had a skin cancer, so destroying the cells will get rid of it. She just did it in a stupid way.
Dervii Henderson it depends on the type and stage. Some skin cancer like basal cell carcinoma is superficial and doesn’t really spread so they typically just get cut off and patients are advised to make some lifestyle changes. Her doctor probably ran a number of test to determine that the spots she was seeing where the only concern and told her the treatment option. Then she went and did this and destroyed her cartilage instead
Ur depends on the " level" of cancer penetration beneath the layers of the skin. If the skin is limited to The Superficial layer then, you can damage and remove or excise the tissue and fully remove the source of the cancer and prevent it from metastasizing. Once the cancer has penetrated underneath the subdural layers of the skin, the main concern for the medical team and a doctor is that the cancer is tissues will connect with any part of a vascular system underneath the skin or create its own vascular system and then begin to throw chunks of effectively cancerous tissue throughout the body and therefore lead to metastasis and various other complications as a result of those secondary cancer colonies. Most of the time, late-stage skin cancer is extremely difficult to treat and usually we use heavy scarring that also results in tissue death. That is why if you get a full body exam for your skin and then they take a biopsy it is highly highly recommended that's you see a professional to determine the level and type of cancer you happen to have because the superficial treatment of excising a tumor is only effective in early-stage cancers. Usually once they metastasize both the time of treatment and severity of symptoms resulting from above treatment is far far worse and extremely expensive.
You know it's gonna be GOOD when someone says, "Well, I was looking for an alternative" yeah, that's called seeing another doctor, not looking up homemade remedies to melt my cancer away...
@@shadowxxe I think theres a reason its an old saying. I mean. In the early 1900's people used to blow cigarette smoke up other peoples asses to heal stomach pains, and in the 50s people used to lobotomize their children if they were too talkative.
I'm sure she learned!!! Why are people so hateful!!??. She made a very stupid choice. Obviously believed the lies the black salve people tell. It doesn't mean she doesn't deserve help. Hateful awful people judging her. Get a little more sympathy and love for others
I was so gratified hearing you explain in the beginning the use of Eastern and Western medicine. As someone who worked in medicine and took acupuncture courses the two systems dovetail quite nicely together and provide optimal health for patients.
Props to you, I can't imagine why people like the lady in the video would just put corrosive chemicals on their nose instead of seeing an actual doctor to treat their cancer.
She went through more pain and surgery her way then if she removed it professionally in the first place. My boyfriend had a cancer removed from his nose and now you can barely tell.
I'm actually surprised that they were able to use her forehead skin for the surgery since she slathered that horror paste there too...I'm assuming it didn't eat away as much, or they were able to work around it? So sad that people get fooled into using stuff like this :-(
Just consider the fact that even if you burn away the cancer you still have the possibility to leave cancer cells alive in your body that can escape and latch on to other parts of the body. Also a surgeon cutting away the minimal amount of facial tissue with SURGICAL precision will always leave more healthy tissue that future surgeons can work with for reconstruction compared to acid.
Whats worse is there are people like her who decide to do this to their kids instead of taking their kids to the doctor. Like I've seen pics of a gaping hole in a kids ankle where a growth used to be. And they're just like **pack it with gauze and wash it with Collodial Silver amd you'll be fine sweetie**
At what point is witholding reccommended medical treatment for a minor (Im assuming religious reasons is the only potential legal defense?) cross the line into child abuse? Like can a mandated reporter (teacher, coach, counselor) just report such a thing to CPS? If the parents take a kid AMA can a nurse/dr / hospital admin call a judge/ court to determine if its ok? What about a teen? I know in many states a child over 13 or 14 has complete control over their reproductive health, and can get clinician to explain stds and conception, seek birth control or condoms, pelvic or breast exams , can choose against parents will to keep her fetus or abort it. But does that same 14 yo (lets say girl) get to insist she wants chemo/radiation instead of her parents chosen faith healer/only reiki & diet thoughts, etc? Dont wanna veer too off topic, but having been abused as a child in a way that maybe didnt make it worth removing me and risking worse abuse in foster care, It always concerns me that all parents already get to brainwash their kids into whatever they themselves believe. But at least at 18 they can move out and work or attend college and read or be exposed to other ppl and ideas and make their own decisions. But obviously they cannot if theyre not allowed to live that long...
@@rickwrites2612 Alot of people don't believe children have rights/are allowed to have rights or personal autonomy until they leave the house. Furthermore in alot of these rural areas children are not educated or informed of their rights. And its all excused under "religious freedom" which is why I give people who homeschool their kids a side eye. I have heard plenty of stories of teens who saved money to get themselves and their sibs their shots or in some cases a kid can find an adult to support them, but these things take money. Isn't living in America great???? *sarcasm*
This honestly reminds me of those parents who got charged and convicted of negligent homicide for praying to God to heal their dying daughter rather than taking her to a hospital. The girl was 11 and had undiagnosed diabetes. Her death was preventable but her parents completely failed to get care for her. Look up the Kara Neumann case if you want more info.
I have psoriasis and once in a psoriasis group on fb I saw a person trying to sell this black salve to people. I about croaked. I spent half the day arguing to people to please please do not use that stuff. I really hope none of them ever bought it.
Dr. Youn, I’m so interested in your professional opinion about Korean plastic surgery trend in making almost the same face (v-shape jaw, double eye line, small/narrow nose) for everybody just as witnessed in Miss Korea candidates. It seems to me their principle is not about improving what the patient is born with, but more on alternating the face features completely with a sort of perfect face. It is pretty different plastic surgery culture compared to the United States, Europe, Brazil, Japan, Russia or even China.
It’s spooky! I wonder though. Because of the homogeny of the Korean beauty standard, I’d avoid getting surgery there as a white person. Korean plastic surgery is very good, but an Asian nose on a white person would look off. American and Korean beauty trends are different and might look off when blended.
CrazyPangolinLady well they are professionals and I’m sure if you ever decide to get a plastic surgery done here in korea, they’d give you consultation before they do anything. they wouldnt do anything without your consent cuz that would mean lawsuit. common logic. plus a lot of foreigner are choosing to spend a lot of money and time to travel far from their home to korea cuz they know that the doctors here are highly skilled not becuz of k beauty trend. on one of the documentary show that i watched while back, it’s said that nose job is popular among women in India. also, if youve ever read one of japanese beauty magazines, they always have like five or more pages with ads for plastic surgery (mostly, the eye and breast enlargement) so im guessing thats popular in japan. then again, not everyone is the same. plus i heard jawline is really difficult and dangerous surgery so its not as common as you think.
We used cane toads to stop the sugar cane pests in Australia. Now the cane toads are a bigger problem than the pests were. Your native saying is very accurate for many cases around the world!
@@shioriryukaze It doesn't seem, that anyone actually tried to do it. ;) I didn't find anything, but if you want to know, phrase is polish: "leczenie dżumy cholerą".
I would also add that if you have a growing or suspicious mole, get it removed at a doctor's office who will send it to a pathologist! Otherwise, if you go to a med spa to remove these moles without a pathologist's report, you may end up missing a life-threatening metastasizing tumor.
This makes me want to see Dr. Youn do a video on the history of reconstructive surgery. The forehead flap featured in this video reminds me specifically of the procedures that were developed after the first world war to treat significant facial injuries. The results may seem somewhat primitive by today's standards, but you to consider that these procedures were done more than 100 years ago now. Even something like just closing a hole in the nose and/or sinuses had a MAJOR impact on the quality of someone's life, even if they couldn't reconstruct a nose like we can today. I'd love to hear how much of these original techniques are still applicable today. I bet it's more than we might think. The other medical field that was advanced significantly in the aftermath of WW1 was prosthetics. Normally, when someone things of prosthetics, they think limbs. However, because of the previously mentioned severe facial injuries, there were facial prosthetics. There were doctors who would meticulously craft what were really works of art to blend in with someone's natural face as much as possible, often at no or little cost. The outpouring of support for WW1 veterans, especially in the medical community, was truly touching.
Yikes. When my husband had cancer we definitely didn’t diy it. He sought treatment from an oncologist but we also did a lot of holistic things. Refined his diet to a better diet that would support him through that time, proper movement, massages and adequate rest and hydration. Best of both worlds. Beat the cancer.
You know, this is going to sound really weird, but I am really happy that you don't blur the nasty stuff :") Edit: and with nasty stuff I mean the black skin patches in this video, or when he shows a video of a surgery or something
Thank you for sharing this enlightening video. Approximately 6,000 people who are either fighting cancer or have won it and are knowledgeable about it are a part of the Truth About Cancer support group. Anyone who requires support in their battle against cancer I highly encourageing to join this group. As you try to put an end to this dreadful illness, may God bless you all and give you strength. This group uses fb.
I see so many "holistic" approaches to medical care that are just... Way too out there. Like black salve, the infamous Jilly Juice, homeopathy, consumption of laetrile... These things can be outright dangerous. And I appreciate you clearing up the kinds of safe, natural ways that you personally recommend for your patients to improve their health.
People like Youn has given me faith on holistic medical options. I wish more people like him were vocal because its nut jobs that push for "holistic" options are gonna give it a bad name
At this point “natural” and “holistic” are just marketing terms for stuff that doesn’t have to be backed by any research. I appreciate his honesty. Diet and exercise do work. It’s really sad though that so many people feel that these terms are a better than, yay know. The stuff that actually is proven to work. 🙄
Homeopathy is NOT WHAT SHE USED. He has got his terms confused. Homeopathy is an extremely dilute solution of a herb or mineral. I mean very dilute as to be undetectable. It is used to stimulate immunity like a vaccine. What this woman used contained zinc chloride which will eat holes in anything. You could swallow an entire bottle of homeopathic pills and experience no effect whatsoever.
@@eileenhetherington3704 if you could take a while bottle of pills with no effect then that just means they're a placebo that doesn't actually work lol. I stand by the statement "Be wary of a medicine that has zero side effects because chances are it doesn't have any effects at all" lol
This is so informative and interesting to watch! Thanks for educating us and hopefully people that would have potentially done something similar like this lady has
I feel that someone who willingly puts something on their nose that can, and has, melted their nose has no one but them self to blame for their nose not looking how they wanted
It's honestly so cool that we can take pieces from other body parts and like make a new part for someone. My friend has a deviated septum and they took cartilage from her ribcage to put in her nose. That's just awesome
I really appreciate that even though you call yourself a holistic doctor, you still recognize when holistic approaches are insufficient and modern medicine is needed. I wish more holistic medicine practices would take that approach
I'm from somewhere where plastic surgery is very uncommon and I'm not used to the realities, thinking most of it is an industry preying on people's insecurities. Having said that I'm happy to think that some desperate soul in need of reconstructive surgery could meet a doctor like him. He seems like such a genuine and professional person.

My grandmother declined medical treatment for lymphoma, and instead went to a bunch of quacks. One of them was a "Chinese Medicine practitioner" who had her put black salve onto her enlarged lymph nodes in her armpit and on her chest. It created two huge open wounds, one in her armpit, one on her chest, which created "tunnels" that you would be able to fit a finger into, that constantly leaked lymph fluid. The wounds were extremely painful, and never healed for the remaining 18 months of her life. They needed several dressing changes a day, as they were constantly leaking lymph fluid. The pain and discomfort, and the inconvenience of soaking her dressings so fast that she could barely leave her house, severely reduced her quality of life as she slowly died over the next year and a half. The most frustrating thing for me was the fact that she had spent her career as a pharmacist and possessed a great deal of scientific knowledge, yet still fell prey to that disgusting, unethical snake oil peddler. It was very hard for my family to witness, helpless, as she suffered horribly and needlessly.

@@catspajamboree Technically, cancer treatment IS invasive, its a hard process, so hard your hair starts to fall off because of the harshness it brings within (radiation etc etc), but god fucking damn it, she took it quite literal "If theres no nose, theres no nose cancer"
Not always especially with skin cancer. If the affected cells are within a small region that can be removed with one surgery sometimes there is no need to undergo radiation.
@@jessicadias5014 true, in fact there's actually a cream used to remove (potential) skin cancers before they worsen. It makes the patient go quite red but it is very effective.

I know someone who was informed that she had breast cancer, she could've had surgery done, but she refused to because she wanted to keep her breasts. That was the last thing I heard her say. She died later that year, and I just can't help but feel like her decision was really tragic.
Wow, that's really sad. She would rather lose her life than lose her breasts?!
That's exactly what happened to my oldest sister. She'd always been extremely vain and when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and was advised to have her breast amputated, she flatly refused, saying: "I'm not letting them "mutilate" me!" So of she went trying out Chinese "cures" and mystic powders until it was too late so that even a belated operation couldn't save her. It just shows how vanity can sometimes literally kill you.

I almost fainted when I saw her with that hole in her nose 😱
Me either. Never have I ever gasped like that
Fr this really got me feeling a type of way
I'm so glad that she ended up with this kind of positive result at the end, but I really wish that she had just let a doctor surgically remove the affected tissue in the first place and had the resultant excision site seen to by a plastic surgeon. She could have saved herself so much pain and emotional trauma.
Agreed, better safe than sorry
most likely she still had cancer, if it's not on the nose it would of migrated somewhere else.
Instead of using surgery to cut off a piece of her nose, she basically decided to chemically burn a massive chunk off.
And then have multiple surgeries to fix her mistake
People are desperate for easy solutions. Don't think of consequences... like in my country, health care is free. And yet people brag about never seeing a doctor. I don't think they realize ignorance is not always blizz. Like you could walk around with a ton of preventable issues, that actually lower your quality of life without knowing it... like even just fatigue, or exhaustion could have simple solutions that a doctor can figure out with a simple blood test. Maybe you need vitamins, maybe your heart is not getting enough oxygen because you have low iron. Like so many people CAN'T seek medical help because their countries do not have free health care, and have to live like that and just accept it. It actually annoys me a lot when people think not seeing a doctor for no apparent reason for 30 yrs is something to brag about... like you can adapt to a lot of things. Find your own ways of coping. But why do that, if a supplement etc might actually save you all that... I'm a very curious person, so I probably go to the doctor too often, but I also have a lot of different issues with my health that I've ignored for ages. Like I have chronic iron deficiency anemia... i didn't have it treated until I was in my twenties, and when I got that first blood transfusion? (Actually three bags, but still), I felt fucking invincible. Like I had so much energy I literally did not know what to do with myself. I've always struggled with low energy etc, and felt like a zombie. Then suddenly I was superman. I could walk for hours without passing out or feel tired (more than aching muscles afterwards but that's pretty normal when you increase activity), I finally got the energy to live. And that was caused by something they could find by simply poking my finger... so yeah. I'd rather go to a doctor once too often, than wait til it's too late... but a lot of people just... don't use doctors how they should use them... Dr Mike talks about that in his videos, he likes it when a patient can come to him for just a check up without necessarily looking for anything specific. Because then he can keep track of their overall health and then prevent something before it becomes a genuine problem.
@@KrisHe1 same in my Country....people only go when its something that gives them intense pain which is well not very thought through

Agreed. Everyone is bashing her, but I think she learned her lesson. Instead, I think this will probably prevent others considering off the books solutions too.
There are other natural substances that do the same thing, like bloodroot. I love the plant, but I’d never put its juice on my flesh on purpose!
It’s been around for a while but probably wasn’t as common with social media. I’ve heard of black salve years ago and only remember because I just thought it was fucking dumb
Sharing her mistake so we can learn from it.
H Robertson
The troublesome thing is that she just says she “used too much” and that was the problem. 😬
As a medical researcher, I must say:
Black salve definitely worked as intended. Admittedly, chemically excising half of your nose to kill cancerous cells seems a bit extreme, but hey.
Yeah just thought the same. Noting left where the spot was so basically worked how she wanted it to.
But what if the cancer metastasized elsewhere in her body? Don't they typically recommend chemotherapy to prevent this sort of thing? I recall seeing another video where a farmer noticed a suspicious looking mole on his arm and cut it off with a pocket knife, only to die from skin cancer metastases in the brain. After all this, the woman may yet be doomed.
@@irongolem123 If skin cancer metastasizes, further treatment like chemo or radiation would usually be recommended yes. They would run more tests and either recommend further treatment or be considered cancer-free. If you have had melanoma (skin cancer) you have a higher risk of getting it again so follow ups and self-checks would be extra important.
I feel like that's a pretty dumb thing to say. It could have led to a major infection that could have killed her.
@@irongolem123 is it from chubbyemu channel?
My husband had skin cancer on his nose. He had it treated the normal way. One small surgery with local anesthetic in an afternoon. You have to look really hard to know he had skin removed. The doctor did a great job & insurance paid for everything. This lady went through misery for nothing.
I am just continually amazed at what medical practices can accomplish, it’s truly astounding, mad respect.
She could have avoided all of this if she had just went to the surgeon the first time around.
What motivated her to find this "alternative?" Did she use black salve because it was cheaper and she was worried about not being able to afford surgery? Did she simply prefer natural remedies over science?
Most likely she wanted a “natural” remedy.
in the end vanity won.
Her doctor told her she would likely need Mohs surgery (which is the forehead skin flap thing) and she looked up pictures and got scared of it - some how the black salve seemed less scary?
Some people who sell this stuff claim it won’t leave scars or damage non cancerous skin. Obviously they lyin.
@@Platysmapus Clearly they lyin. If we had a noninvasive cream that could treat cancer without damaging your healthy tissue then wouldn't your doctor mention it?
My mother used this stuff on a "suspicious lump" last year. It was so painful, and the escar made me heave to look at it. I'm so thankful she didn't disfigure herself with it. And she didn't even have cancer to begin with! She just got scared and slapped on some "natural" remedy instead of going to the doctor like a normal person! Being the child of an "all-natural" Facebook mom is incredibly stressful. I dread the day anyone in my family really gets cancer
That’s so sad but I wished she went to a doctor since it wasn’t cancer they probably would have given her some cream or antibiotics or something. I hope she stops being all natural. Natural can help but it’s not something you use on something that you think is cancer. I’m glad it wasn’t cancer and I hope she’s ok I hope no one in your family gets cancer. ❤️

Cancer is the problem. People like her think cancer or tumour is the different cell in our body. Nope, you all wrong... cancer or tumour is exactly same DNK like yours or another point of view- our cell mutated rapidly and cancer is the name of these cells. Actually, all of our cells mutated, but most of them just die.
Exactly, that's the type of dumb ass who would also say Covid is fake and/or inject disinfectant
To see this surgeon being transparent and clear that integrated care is how he feels medicine is best practiced, but also stressing that evidence based medicine wins outright in serious situations was super relieving to me
Honestly, with that big hole, I wouldnt call the first surgery "botched" they did the best they could do for a first procedure
I agree! Her nose really didn't look bad after the surgery considering what happened to it in the first place. They didn't mess up the surgery and ruin her face, it's just that there was a little excess fat in there.
She literally botched herself
I swear
The pain that that black salve must have caused literally melting her nose off. So scary.
most likely it didn’t feel like anything, all the skin was necrotic

Every time I hear “holistic”, “eastern medicine”, homeopathy...I get skirmish. My friend died of ovary cancer, a totally curable cancer, because she refuse to get a real treatment, going to all sorts of alternative medicine bs. When finally she went to a doctor he send her straight to hospital where she died few weeks later.
I'm sorry to hear that.
That is so sad. I am very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how heart breaking it is to lose someone to something because they refuse proper treatment. Thank you for sharing your story.
The way I see it Eastern Medicine should be seen as just a ‘boost’ to an already established Western medicine treatment or as a last resort if Western medicine hasn’t worked. I recently discovered I have pretty serious chronic sinusitis. Somehow I ended up with an infection in the bones of my face and some parts of my throat and neck from this. It took a long time and seeing many different doctors before I finally received a proper diagnosis because the infection could only be detected by an MRI (which I finally received after suffering with choking/suffocating feelings for more than a month) and many of the doctors wouldn’t take me seriously and kept telling me I just had a cold and anxiety. I felt completely helpless with Western Medicine so I turned to acupuncture. Fortunately I then found the right doctor who found the problem and has now prescribed me antibiotics and some other medicines to treat the infection. But I still continue to do acupuncture too because I believe it can help alongside the Western medications. I feel that Eastern Medicine should never be used alone without first trying Western medicine. But I also believe that sometimes Western Medicine alone cannot help either.
@@leemana352 I think that rather than differentiating between eastern and western medicine, it is even more about using safe alternative or traditional cultural remedies that pre-dated modern medical practices in combination with modern medical practices. Emphasis on safe, because putting butter on a burn may be a cultural tradition and more natural/alternative, but it is not safe or effective. Acupuncture, when done by someone with proper training, can be great for symptom management even though it is not a cure.
Lee Mana the doctors told my friend that the acupuncture that she did probably aggravated her cancer because upset the tumor. The vast, way vast, majority of eastern medicine is harmful or just placebo at best. I lived in Asia, the doctors would say things like “if you have back pain, don’t drink beer” or after feeling your pulse on your wrist “you have a liver problem” , or tell you about Fung shui to cure your sinusite. Easter medicine prescribes rhino’s horn powder or bear bile,which besides been dangerous are I inhumane to the animals. Cupping, largely popular in china, is absurd. Acupuncture is placebo, you may have your symptoms alleviated a little, due to placebo effect. Eastern medicine for the most part should be banned.

I had a grandmother that decided to use black salve instead of going to chemo/surgery for her breast cancer. It was recommended by her doctor, and she ended up developing gangrene and dying from it. This is why I listen to my doctors and read up on everything, especially if the doctor prescribes something that is questionable. Thankfully my other grandmother chose to go the chemo/mastectomy route for her cancer, and so far it's looking good. Here's hoping she pulls through o3ob

Am i the only one that is still wondering what happened to her cancer?
Does she still have cancer?
I’m pretty sure the black salve killed it. Cancer is just cells and she had a skin cancer, so destroying the cells will get rid of it. She just did it in a stupid way.
Frosty Dinosaur doesn’t skin cancer affect like the whole skin.. she only only had skin cancer on two spots on her face?
Dervii Henderson it depends on the type and stage. Some skin cancer like basal cell carcinoma is superficial and doesn’t really spread so they typically just get cut off and patients are advised to make some lifestyle changes. Her doctor probably ran a number of test to determine that the spots she was seeing where the only concern and told her the treatment option. Then she went and did this and destroyed her cartilage instead
Ur depends on the " level" of cancer penetration beneath the layers of the skin. If the skin is limited to The Superficial layer then, you can damage and remove or excise the tissue and fully remove the source of the cancer and prevent it from metastasizing.
Once the cancer has penetrated underneath the subdural layers of the skin, the main concern for the medical team and a doctor is that the cancer is tissues will connect with any part of a vascular system underneath the skin or create its own vascular system and then begin to throw chunks of effectively cancerous tissue throughout the body and therefore lead to metastasis and various other complications as a result of those secondary cancer colonies. Most of the time, late-stage skin cancer is extremely difficult to treat and usually we use heavy scarring that also results in tissue death.
That is why if you get a full body exam for your skin and then they take a biopsy it is highly highly recommended that's you see a professional to determine the level and type of cancer you happen to have because the superficial treatment of excising a tumor is only effective in early-stage cancers. Usually once they metastasize both the time of treatment and severity of symptoms resulting from above treatment is far far worse and extremely expensive.
@@frostydinosaur8187 its very haphazard though. You might kill all the cancer cells, but if you miss any you just mutilated yourself for nothing.

Of course not.
she's too dumb to even understand what she did to herself, tbh

Props to you, I can't imagine why people like the lady in the video would just put corrosive chemicals on their nose instead of seeing an actual doctor to treat their cancer.
Lol I started rubbing my nose too! Just wanted to reassure it.
She went through more pain and surgery her way then if she removed it professionally in the first place. My boyfriend had a cancer removed from his nose and now you can barely tell.
I'm actually surprised that they were able to use her forehead skin for the surgery since she slathered that horror paste there too...I'm assuming it didn't eat away as much, or they were able to work around it?
So sad that people get fooled into using stuff like this :-(
She only did a small spot on her forehead I think.
Just consider the fact that even if you burn away the cancer you still have the possibility to leave cancer cells alive in your body that can escape and latch on to other parts of the body. Also a surgeon cutting away the minimal amount of facial tissue with SURGICAL precision will always leave more healthy tissue that future surgeons can work with for reconstruction compared to acid.

Like I've seen pics of a gaping hole in a kids ankle where a growth used to be. And they're just like **pack it with gauze and wash it with Collodial Silver amd you'll be fine sweetie**
At what point is witholding reccommended medical treatment for a minor (Im assuming religious reasons is the only potential legal defense?) cross the line into child abuse? Like can a mandated reporter (teacher, coach, counselor) just report such a thing to CPS? If the parents take a kid AMA can a nurse/dr / hospital admin call a judge/ court to determine if its ok? What about a teen? I know in many states a child over 13 or 14 has complete control over their reproductive health, and can get clinician to explain stds and conception, seek birth control or condoms, pelvic or breast exams , can choose against parents will to keep her fetus or abort it. But does that same 14 yo (lets say girl) get to insist she wants chemo/radiation instead of her parents chosen faith healer/only reiki & diet thoughts, etc?
Dont wanna veer too off topic, but having been abused as a child in a way that maybe didnt make it worth removing me and risking worse abuse in foster care, It always concerns me that all parents already get to brainwash their kids into whatever they themselves believe. But at least at 18 they can move out and work or attend college and read or be exposed to other ppl and ideas and make their own decisions.
But obviously they cannot if theyre not allowed to live that long...
That or their pets, I've seen that quite a bit with black salve, and it's heartbreaking.
@@rickwrites2612 Alot of people don't believe children have rights/are allowed to have rights or personal autonomy until they leave the house. Furthermore in alot of these rural areas children are not educated or informed of their rights. And its all excused under "religious freedom" which is why I give people who homeschool their kids a side eye. I have heard plenty of stories of teens who saved money to get themselves and their sibs their shots or in some cases a kid can find an adult to support them, but these things take money. Isn't living in America great???? *sarcasm*
School nurse has entered the chat ✨ICE✨😀
This honestly reminds me of those parents who got charged and convicted of negligent homicide for praying to God to heal their dying daughter rather than taking her to a hospital. The girl was 11 and had undiagnosed diabetes. Her death was preventable but her parents completely failed to get care for her.
Look up the Kara Neumann case if you want more info.
he's very kind, ethical, formal, unjudgmental in reacting. that matters most to me.
A doctor with a comforting, competent, and, reassuring bedside manner that’s rare these days. That’s doctor I would trust.
I literally screamed when I saw what that did to her nose. Honestly, I have been less shocked watching videos of murders on RUclips.
Speaking of murders, morbid curiosity time! imagine using that salve stuff on like-- a victim to prevent facial recognition or something
@@Akalim Ooooooohhh nice, good idea! See ya later, imma go and.. do something.
@@Akalim that would look absolutely terrifying
@@Akalim hmm make sure to apply it to the fingers too.
At least murder is against your will. Doing something like this to your SELF is just a whole different level.
I have psoriasis and once in a psoriasis group on fb I saw a person trying to sell this black salve to people. I about croaked. I spent half the day arguing to people to please please do not use that stuff. I really hope none of them ever bought it.
Dr. Youn, I’m so interested in your professional opinion about Korean plastic surgery trend in making almost the same face (v-shape jaw, double eye line, small/narrow nose) for everybody just as witnessed in Miss Korea candidates. It seems to me their principle is not about improving what the patient is born with, but more on alternating the face features completely with a sort of perfect face. It is pretty different plastic surgery culture compared to the United States, Europe, Brazil, Japan, Russia or even China.
Yes! Please do this!
just to add, i heard a lot those patients are from overseas, including Japan.
but i agree with the p/s trending is kinda weird.
It’s spooky!
I wonder though. Because of the homogeny of the Korean beauty standard, I’d avoid getting surgery there as a white person. Korean plastic surgery is very good, but an Asian nose on a white person would look off.
American and Korean beauty trends are different and might look off when blended.
CrazyPangolinLady well they are professionals and I’m sure if you ever decide to get a plastic surgery done here in korea, they’d give you consultation before they do anything. they wouldnt do anything without your consent cuz that would mean lawsuit. common logic. plus a lot of foreigner are choosing to spend a lot of money and time to travel far from their home to korea cuz they know that the doctors here are highly skilled not becuz of k beauty trend.
on one of the documentary show that i watched while back, it’s said that nose job is popular among women in India. also, if youve ever read one of japanese beauty magazines, they always have like five or more pages with ads for plastic surgery (mostly, the eye and breast enlargement) so im guessing thats popular in japan. then again, not everyone is the same. plus i heard jawline is really difficult and dangerous surgery so its not as common as you think.
Please...i'd love to know too
How was she able to sleep with her face being melted over night ?!
Idk man. Not enough braincells to notice it ig smh
Those are your worries? Get your priorities straight.
And you, furry-boy. Cease your ignorance.
@@danate3849 u again stfu don't call him a furry jeez how dumb can u be kekw
@@jmanuelll Sounds like a closeted furry.
@@danate3849 mayhaps it is you who is the closeted furry, furry boy!
Why is everyone pronouncing it like "sav" instead if "sal-v"? Has my whole life been a lie?
They just can't pronounce things correctly
From the Pacific Northwest and we pronounced it correctly. SaL-v
I just call it ointment because I can’t figure it out
it’s def salve since it’s a Latin word
I assumed it's an American pronunciation?
**reads a blog post**
"I am now a doctor"
😂😂😂😂
😂 Oh, my!
*reads that vitamin c is unstable in water/air*

We have a saying in native language "when we used a solution for a problem ,the solution became the new problem" just like her😂
We call it "treating plague by cholera"
We used cane toads to stop the sugar cane pests in Australia. Now the cane toads are a bigger problem than the pests were. Your native saying is very accurate for many cases around the world!
@@eiwaransichsein hmmm....where did that come from? I may have to research
shioriryukaze you can google it! I watched a documentary on it when I took environmental science, it's a really cool topic actually
@@shioriryukaze It doesn't seem, that anyone actually tried to do it. ;) I didn't find anything, but if you want to know, phrase is polish: "leczenie dżumy cholerą".
I was SO scared when you said Black Salve is dangerous!!! I was raised on Brown Salve and after researching I now know they are two different things:)
"What she needed in this situation, was a brain"
Lmao
Ohhhh so that's why Voldemort looked like a snake, black salve!
@Gi Gi yo, it's just a joke lol.
@Gi Gi well.. yeah
@Gi Gi r/woooosh
Black salve for a black soul
I would also add that if you have a growing or suspicious mole, get it removed at a doctor's office who will send it to a pathologist! Otherwise, if you go to a med spa to remove these moles without a pathologist's report, you may end up missing a life-threatening metastasizing tumor.
Exactly! If that was a melanoma that had already metastasized, removing the original lesion wouldn’t save you.
Plus it’s covered by insurance 🤣 won’t have to pay!
Makes you thankful for what you have
This makes me want to see Dr. Youn do a video on the history of reconstructive surgery. The forehead flap featured in this video reminds me specifically of the procedures that were developed after the first world war to treat significant facial injuries. The results may seem somewhat primitive by today's standards, but you to consider that these procedures were done more than 100 years ago now. Even something like just closing a hole in the nose and/or sinuses had a MAJOR impact on the quality of someone's life, even if they couldn't reconstruct a nose like we can today. I'd love to hear how much of these original techniques are still applicable today. I bet it's more than we might think.
The other medical field that was advanced significantly in the aftermath of WW1 was prosthetics. Normally, when someone things of prosthetics, they think limbs. However, because of the previously mentioned severe facial injuries, there were facial prosthetics. There were doctors who would meticulously craft what were really works of art to blend in with someone's natural face as much as possible, often at no or little cost. The outpouring of support for WW1 veterans, especially in the medical community, was truly touching.
Yikes. When my husband had cancer we definitely didn’t diy it. He sought treatment from an oncologist but we also did a lot of holistic things. Refined his diet to a better diet that would support him through that time, proper movement, massages and adequate rest and hydration. Best of both worlds. Beat the cancer.
You know, this is going to sound really weird, but I am really happy that you don't blur the nasty stuff :")
Edit: and with nasty stuff I mean the black skin patches in this video, or when he shows a video of a surgery or something
Thank you for sharing this enlightening video. Approximately 6,000 people who are either fighting cancer or have won it and are knowledgeable about it are a part of the Truth About Cancer support group. Anyone who requires support in their battle against cancer I highly encourageing to join this group. As you try to put an end to this dreadful illness, may God bless you all and give you strength. This group uses fb.
I see so many "holistic" approaches to medical care that are just... Way too out there. Like black salve, the infamous Jilly Juice, homeopathy, consumption of laetrile... These things can be outright dangerous. And I appreciate you clearing up the kinds of safe, natural ways that you personally recommend for your patients to improve their health.
People like Youn has given me faith on holistic medical options. I wish more people like him were vocal because its nut jobs that push for "holistic" options are gonna give it a bad name
At this point “natural” and “holistic” are just marketing terms for stuff that doesn’t have to be backed by any research.
I appreciate his honesty. Diet and exercise do work. It’s really sad though that so many people feel that these terms are a better than, yay know. The stuff that actually is proven to work. 🙄
Homeopathy is NOT WHAT SHE USED. He has got his terms confused. Homeopathy is an extremely dilute solution of a herb or mineral. I mean very dilute as to be undetectable. It is used to stimulate immunity like a vaccine. What this woman used contained zinc chloride which will eat holes in anything. You could swallow an entire bottle of homeopathic pills and experience no effect whatsoever.
@@eileenhetherington3704 if you could take a while bottle of pills with no effect then that just means they're a placebo that doesn't actually work lol. I stand by the statement "Be wary of a medicine that has zero side effects because chances are it doesn't have any effects at all" lol
I never thought I'd see him say " that's fxcked up" the internet has deflowered him 😭😂
Question: Do you have a mug saying “my medical degree knows more than your blog post”
I would so love to see one
My vet has a poster along those lines XD
This is so informative and interesting to watch! Thanks for educating us and hopefully people that would have potentially done something similar like this lady has
Her: I did it myself cause screw surgery
Also her: can I have surgeries to fix my nose please?
I'm thinking "how come she didn't fix her nose herself?"
I think it's safe to say she learned her lesson. The black salve taught her that she should've done surgery in the first place.
Ok so she didn't want to do surgery but ended up having to do two surgeries.
I feel that someone who willingly puts something on their nose that can, and has, melted their nose has no one but them self to blame for their nose not looking how they wanted
Okay? They didn't try to switch blame onto someone else, your comment is, and will never be needed.
This woman is "I know everything better" personified.
Black salve might do a pretty good job of cleaning my toilet, but I wouldn't want it anywhere near my skin
Good point
Good idea on toilet.
You think it can't burn a hole through your hobo Port-a-Potty?
If my man can’t tell me everything about plastic surgery and do’s and donts of how to deal with cancer- I don’t want him
I think dr Youn is married :p
It's honestly so cool that we can take pieces from other body parts and like make a new part for someone. My friend has a deviated septum and they took cartilage from her ribcage to put in her nose. That's just awesome
Huh?? I’ve never heard of that in my life and I got a consultation for a deviated septum 😂 mine isn’t that bad but still wtf
I love people like her because they give us all something to laugh at
Dr Youn is so handsome and has a voice and cadence I can listen to forever
She might had metastasis from this cancer in her other tissues, even blood! This is so irresponsible to her own body to treat it that way😱
“Black salve can destroy your tissues” *Hides my kleen-ex*
This should be more seen 😂😂 omg
I am glad her new nose looks fine in the end. Kudos to the surgeons.
He always looks fresh as in someone who just get out of a shower 🤔
Fr
omg it's true
I really appreciate that even though you call yourself a holistic doctor, you still recognize when holistic approaches are insufficient and modern medicine is needed. I wish more holistic medicine practices would take that approach
mmmm black salve gives me bad memories. my grandmother thought she could cure her cancer with it but shes dead now so that didnt really work
I'm from somewhere where plastic surgery is very uncommon and I'm not used to the realities, thinking most of it is an industry preying on people's insecurities. Having said that I'm happy to think that some desperate soul in need of reconstructive surgery could meet a doctor like him. He seems like such a genuine and professional person.
