    You’re so right about the psychological issues that cause people to find faults on their face. I used to work at a sunglasses store, and found that most people will love a pair of sunglasses on other people but will think they look ugly in them. Unfortunately, people are their own worst critic and once they understand and accept that, they can see themselves differently.

    This is for fellow subscriber mctaboo but also a general comment for all. Mctaboo said Dr. Lim is a racist, but I don’t believe mctaboo understands the definition of racism. Racism is believing that one race is superior to all other, hatred without reason of another race. Racism is not: disliking something someone else likes, not believing what someone else believes, disagreeing with an ideology, being concerned for your own safety and acting accordingly (whether the perceived threat is real or not), or showing pictures of the actions of others (without additional context supporting hatred for that entire race). There is a quote I think of often, “We judge ourselves by our intentions but others by their actions”. I think this video is a good opportunity to consider Dr. Lim’s intentions, which he has stated, and which I have found no evidence to believe he is lying about. If we find fault in Dr. Lim’s actions, perhaps the answer why lies within ourselves and not Dr. Lim. I do hope mctaboo reconsiders their assertion that Dr. Lim is racist. Not for Dr. Lim, he knows who he is. Reconsider for themselves, so they can reach a greater understanding of themselves and therefor achieve a greater overall sense of calm nod contentment. They will become less likely to be dragged around by their emotions, letting others decide how they feel. In other words, often times when we are angry or triggered, it is because we are hurt, or afraid, or feeling vulnerable and we believe we mustn’t expose that vulnerability to others. It’s too scary to admit we are vulnerable because we believe it must mean there is something wrong with us, we are broken, and if others find out they will reject us. An example is showing anger towards someone who is late. We focus on that alone, why are they late? Why can’t they just leave on time? How hard is it to arrive on time? They must be stupid to not be able to arrive on time. What we are really saying is “When you show up late, I’m afraid it means you don’t care about me. I’m scared it means you may not love me, and I want to be loved”. Instead of getting to the root of the emotion, you will be stuck fighting over being late, which isn’t the issue at all. Perhaps the issue is the person arriving late loves you madly but has poor executive planning skills. Focus on that to solve the issue. The important distinction here is that feelings aren’t fact and shouldn’t be treated as such.

      @@drdavinlim It upsets me to a good doctor get bad reviews but bad doctors get away with ruining a person’s face. A plastic surgery burned half my face with an IPL laser. First time using it on my face, he had his assistant do the treatment unattended, which she had never done before. He had the machine at the highest setting and never did a patch test. When I complained of extreme pain, they told me that was good and that meant I would get a good result and just kept on going. The doctor admitted fault for the entire incident, but provided no treatment to fix the damage. I have spent over $2000 US and still require additional treatments. No matter how many official complaints I place with government agencies, nothing is done to him. Patients really need to appreciate a good dermatologists like you, because such doctors are the exception to the rule nowadays.

    For those of you who are close to me you would have heard this story. Once in a lifetime. I took a week to think it over, and I asked my close colleagues and family about this offer to treat the Royal Family - I should have revealed my decision at the end of the video not the start. This video goes BEYOND the story, it reveals why I elect to treat or not treat patients who have acne scarring. I find the physical aspect of scar revision easy, as a solution is always possible, its the personality of the patients that I find challenging. Well over 90% of my patient I look forward to treating, as I am improving lives- especially my International patients who do not take the Medicare rebate for granted. A big thank you. Also a big thank you for my local, National and the dozens of Kiwis who see me every month. Love you guys!!!!!!

      Copying here my reply to Dr. Davin:
      "The royal family members are over 10,000 people... If one or a bunch of sisters contacted you that does not mean the the whole tribe "The royal family" did, I wish you more specific. I have dealt with 7 members of the royal family in different personal project that are related to my profession as an interior architect and I never feared that someone could visit them and tell them Ohhh who is this bad designer who made your home and then worry about them coming back to me to blame me.
      There were very humble clients just like any other clients of mine. Your video implements like they are scary people with unpredictable reactions but the truth is they are just like us all. And just like us if we get bad results from a treatment by a doctor we will sure blame the doctor (Human nature). Doctors should do their best and never worry what would the patient think of them as long as they worked professionally and with honesty."

    Not all money is good money. I'm so glad you turned the offer down. You truly are the best dermatologist around. Ethical, compassionate, funny, and knowledgeable. I'm not surprised the house of Sauds wanted you.
    The house of Sauds is known for getting what they want. It's in their nature. They are used to getting what they want since birth. If they feel that you didn't give them a flawless face, they might just punish you by jailing you. Lol
    I watched too many documentaries on how horrible they treat their Philipino maids/slaves, how terrible they treated their Thai farm workers and how they treat anyone who they considered their inferior.
    They don't just mistreat the Asians, they also keep Estern Europeans girls as sex slaves. There was a documentary, years ago, about miss America, who was offered a job in the Saudi Palace as their interior decorator, when she got there, she said everything was okay for about a week, then hell broke loose when one of the Saudi princes tried to have sex with her, when she turned him down, he got furious and threw her in the dungeon with the other sex slaves they kept.
    She said there was Asian sex slaves, Estern Europeans girls, Western European girls, pretty much girls of all races, who were promised legitimate jobs but ended up as sex slaves.
    Miss America was able to escaped with the help of the American media, American politicians who pulled strings to get her out. She was able to contact her family in the states and told them she was being held captives in Saudi Arabia and her family called the media and their local Senator and Congressman.
    This documentary was in the late 90s. She said girls were being held as sex slaves in the palace. These girls would serviced the princes and all of the princes friends or foreign dignitaries and visitors.
    The ones that was lucky enough to be released, got sent home with alot of jewels and cash, so they'll keep their mouth shut.
    If the Saudis could murdered their own dissenting daughters, sons, and family members, they can murder anyone.

    In regards to the 2nd topic I will be more than grateful if a doctor tells me the truth and give me options...much better that ended looking as a chipmunk (if fillers) or with my expectations crashed. I commend you for not overlooking the psycological state of your patient minds. My uncle is a doctor too (cardiologist) and he always asses that part to have a better knowledge of his patients.

I do believe in caring for others and not just selfishness will bring more blessings. I'm glad that you're not blinded by money or material things around you, but the kindness and honesty of your heart and what you enjoy and gives you purpose in life. Hope you have many more blessings and happiness with your career and may your nurses and assistants care for you as you care for them as a human being. God bless and have a wonderful holidays!😊

My two kids have bad acne scarring especially my son and still has big red sores that are solid coming up and he’s like I’ll just get my face and back lasered when I’m 21, he’s 17 just now, he is totally embarked about his back because it is so bad that even when it gets really warm he refuses to take his t shirt off. I’ve told him when’s he’s 21 and his back and face are clear of the acne we will make an informed decision and look into several Dermaloigts and maybe consider treatment then but not before.

    The royal family members are over 10,000 people... If one or a bunch of sisters contacted you that does not mean the the whole tribe "The royal family" did, I wish you more specific. I have dealt with 7 members of the royal family in different personal project that are related to my profession as an interior architect and I never feared that someone could visit them and tell them Ohhh who is this bad designer who made your home and then worry about them coming back to me to blame me.
    There were very humble clients just like any other clients of mine. Your video implements like they are scary people with unpredictable reactions but the truth is they are just like us all. And just like us if we get bad results from a treatment by a doctor we will sure blame the doctor (Human nature). Doctors should do their best and never worry what would the patient think of them as long as they worked professionally and with honesty.

    I highly doubt this story is true and not made up for gaining a certain type of publicity. 1- In saudi we have great dermatologists and doctors in general. 2- if it was in fact true and you turned it down why are here parading the amount you were offered? Again ( Fake news) 3- and far most I think it is ridiculous that a supposedly educated person would make assumptions on a WHOLE country based on what he heard on the media. Refusing to go for your own safety is your right but going on youtube flashing the ( turned down offer) is questionable. If you claim thats out of integrity, then where is your integrity when “ potential” patients approached you? I think you should stick to your profession and stop telling stories because some people can actually tell when they hear lies.
