Make me perfect: Manufacturing beauty in China
overview
In China today, looking good is seen as key to career success. With beauty videos promoting extreme weight-loss flooding social media and beauty apps allowing surgery appointments to be booked at the click of a button, China’s cosmetic surgery industry is booming.
But the rise in demand has led to a shortage of qualified practitioners and licensed clinics. Hundreds of accidents are happening inside Chinese clinics every day.
This documentary meets the pioneers of the industry and tells the stories of victims of botched surgeries and recruitment scams.
