Hang Mioku, 48, deformed after injecting cooking oil into her face as DIY plastic surgery
A plastic surgery addict injected cooking oil into her face when doctors refused to give her any more silicone.
Former model Hang Mioku has been left permanently disfigured following the DIY beauty treatment.
After searching for someone who would perform more surgeries on here, she found a local Korean doctor who provided her with silicone, which she would self inject into her face with a needle.

After injecting an entire bottle of black market silicone into her face, Hang resorted to using cooking oil that left her face severely swollen and scarred.
Her face became so grotesquely large that she was called "standing fan" by children in her neighbourhood - due to her large face and small body.

Hang Mioku, now 48, had her first plastic surgery procedure when she was 28; hooked from the beginning she moved to Japan where she had further operations - mostly to her face.
A move to Japan allowed Hang’s obsession to take hold while she was away from her parents, who had no idea their daughter’s first operation would result in a full-blown addiction.
She quickly became obsessed with having smoother and softer skin.
Doctors eventually refused to carry out any more work on her after her face became noticeably enlarged.
Upon, returning home to Korea, Mioku was so deformed that her own family could no longer recognize her.
