Extreme diets, Sew Tongue with Koyo Plastic Hard To Eat

Los Angeles, various methods have been tried diets, but the weight loss appears to be difficult. They are desperate then try an extreme way. One is to sew a patch on the tongue to feel pain when eating. This will force the wearer could only drink liquids.
Patch is made of plastic that is installed in the tongue with 6 stitches. Launched in 2009 by Beverly Hills plastic surgeon named Nicholas Chugay, this procedure can be claimed to help you lose weight up to 14 pounds in a month, but not without uncomfortable side effects.

Patients may experience swelling of the tongue and difficulty speaking. Even some patients eventually had trouble sleeping and moving the tongue after patch fitted. Perhaps this is what makes this procedure has not been approved by the FDA, food and drug regulatory agency in the United States.
What's more, this patch can only be worn for a maximum period of one month, because after that the tongue tissue begins to grow again and the patch will go into the tongue. But during that time, the patient is given a liquid diet of 800 calories a day to meet the nutritional needs while maximizing your weight loss program.
The patch is the size of a postage stamp and is made of marlex, plastic material that is often used as a hernia mesh to treat disease, is also the material used to make Hula Hoops. The cost for the procedure priced at U.S. $ 2,000 or approximately USD 19.5 million.
As reported by the Daily mail, Friday (06/07/2013), the procedure can be found in Dr. Chugay Clinic in Los Angeles. He claims to have done this procedure on more than 60 women since 2009. But in Venezuela, a similar patch can be obtained only at a price of U.S. $ 150 or about USD 1.46 million.
One reason why this procedure is also offered in Venezuela is because demand is quite a lot. Since this procedure was offered through a clinic in Caracas in 2011, reportedly in a month there are more than 900 clients who come to try.
