DIY Surgery

(from the uk issue of FHM)

BAD MEDICINE

The June 2000 issue of the 'Psychiatric Bulletin' reported that a British woman was obsessed with her weight and decided she needed to lose fat - fast. Liposuction seemed the best solution, but she took a kitchen knife, cut open her thighs and attempted to squeeze out the fat herself.


The same report carried the example of a 25-year-old man who became convinced that the skin on his face was too loose. He grabbed a staple gun and set to work on both sides of his face. The staples fell out after ten minutes. "He was quite an attractive young man," said Dr David Veale, of the Royal Free and University College Medical School, author of the study. "But he thought he had wrinkles and wanted to pull the skin back to keep it taut".


Dr Veale also desribed a patient who hated the shape of his chin so much that he cycled into the back of a lorry on purpose - hoping to fracture his jaw so it could be reset the way he wanted. At the last moment he dropped his head and fractured his skull instead.


A third man hated the prominent scars on his face. In a remarkable feat of stupidity, he took a wad of sandpaper and tried to file the scars from his skin. "It really was a case of cutting off your nose to spite your face," said Dr Veale, with unnecessary humour.


Well, all I have to say is......what a bunch of twatters.
