Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery announced on the 3rd that, in response to the novel coronavirus, it has strengthened its existing year-round safety disinfection system and is operating it every day.
As COVID-19 (Wuhan pneumonia), the novel coronavirus that began in Wuhan, China, has now spread throughout South Korea and is causing widespread anxiety, with the number of infected patients also rising rapidly, plastic surgery clinics in Gangnam are likewise making various efforts to respond.
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery is further enhancing safety by placing hand sanitizers and antibacterial protective masks throughout the clinic, restricting appointment bookings for visitors with a history of travel to China or other overseas destinations, and having all staff work while wearing KF94 antibacterial masks and disinfected gloves.
In addition, the clinic has established a thorough infection-control system to prevent the spread of viral infections, including real-time disinfection, advance checks for respiratory symptoms, cold symptoms, and fever when making appointments and visiting the clinic, and temperature checks for patients and visitors. Staff are also being trained to minimize their movement routes, with the safety of all staff and clients as a priority.
This measure follows the World Health Organization’s (WHO) decision to raise the risk level of the novel coronavirus to high, and is intended to further strengthen the safety of patients visiting the clinic and reduce concerns about coming in for appointments.
