TheLINE Plastic Surgery announced that the flea market and donation event held on December 1 as part of its social contribution activities was successfully completed.
The donation event was organized to raise funds for medical expenses and educational programs for children with disabilities. From preparing the event to carrying it out and delivering the proceeds, including the donation of 128 items in total, the sale of auction items, and the contribution of the funds raised, the clinic's staff took an active part and gave concrete shape to ESG management.
TheLINE Plastic Surgery donated a wide range of items including cosmetics, clothing, tableware, and electronic devices. Adding the proceeds raised through the auction of 5 items such as wallets, shoes, and bags, a total of 2.6 million won was delivered to the Miral Welfare Foundation. The clinic explained that the event was a project to send practical support to children with disabilities in need as the year draws to a close.
The clinic has continued social contribution activities for medically underserved groups at home and abroad since its early days. Together with the Aram Youth Center, it has supported the Pink Breast campaign and the 'It Is Not Your Fault' campaign, carried out various medical volunteer activities such as medical consultation and education for youths under protective disposition, and covered part of their surgical costs. It has also taken part in the Hope Reconstruction campaign helping patients with failed cosmetic surgery, and in pro bono surgery for farmers.
International support activities are also actively under way. Together with Asiana Airlines, the clinic participates in the Smile Plus campaign helping Thai children with cleft lip, while practicing sharing around the world with the Teddy Bear Korea Foundation, and has provided pro bono surgery to international patients through support activities with the NH Nonghyup Foundation.
The clinic said, "This event, on top of our social contribution work so far, was a special occasion where the entire staff communicated directly with the local community and felt the meaning of sharing firsthand. All of our staff shared the same mindset and spent a meaningful time realizing the value of a clinic that lives alongside its neighbors."
Meanwhile, TheLINE Plastic Surgery provides patient-centered integrated medical services across a range of fields, including body contouring centered on liposuction and fat grafting, eye and nose surgery, lifting, and stem cell treatment. In particular, it established a fat cell-based growth factor (SVF) research institute, developing advanced procedures and surgical methods and applying them in clinical practice.
Dr. Jaeho Cho and Dr. Yoosuk Chung, Chief Directors of TheLINE Plastic Surgery, said, "We will continue to place patients' health first while steadily carrying on sharing activities for neighbors in need."
