Specialist profiles

Who reviews this content

Tongchun Mao (毛彤春)

Deputy Director & Head of Aesthetic Surgery · Vice Chief Physician, Licensed Aesthetic Attending · Lead Physician of This Site

Periorbital and lower eyelid surgery · facial aesthetic surgery

Dr. Tongchun Mao is Deputy Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center and head of its aesthetic surgery service at Chongqing West District Hospital, and the lead physician for this site's eye bag content. A core specialist formerly at the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Department of Xinqiao Hospital, affiliated with Army Medical University, he has rooted his clinical practice for more than 20 years and personally performs over 700 operations a year.

His facial practice covers eyelid surgery and periorbital refinement, rhinoplasty and nasal refinement, facial bone contouring of the cheekbone, jaw angle and chin, facelift and lifting procedures, and facial fat grafting. The eye bag decision sits where two of those meet: the eyelid, and the volume of the face around it. His consistent philosophy is to operate on the anatomy the patient actually has, change only what the analysis justifies, and keep the result natural enough that nobody asks who the surgeon was.

Clinical focus

Lower eyelid assessment: fat, skin and fluid told apart
Eyelid surgery and periorbital refinement
Facial fat grafting and volume restoration around the eye
Facelift, midface lift and facial rejuvenation
Rhinoplasty, including structural grafting with the patient's own cartilage
Revision assessment and planning after previous facial surgery

Three problems, three answers

More than 700 operations a year counts only alongside selection. The eye bag is the clearest example in facial surgery of a complaint where the operation a patient asks for is often not the one they need — and where saying so is the most useful thing a surgeon does.

Shaoliang Wang (王韶亮)

Director, Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center · Vice Chief Physician, Associate Professor, Doctor of Medicine

Center leadership · surgical standards

Dr. Shaoliang Wang is Center Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital. He leads the team in which Dr. Mao practises, and carries responsibility for the center's standards of surgical planning, safety and follow-up.

For patients, that role is the guarantee that an individual surgeon's plan sits inside a departmental system: standardised preoperative assessment, anaesthesia delivered by hospital teams, and a defined follow-up after every operation. Patients who arrive unhappy with an eyelid operation performed elsewhere are usually assessed within this part of the service.

Clinical focus

Repair of unsatisfactory cosmetic operations, including revision and reconstruction
Surgical planning standards and case selection
Departmental follow-up and safety review

Ke He (何锞)

Deputy Director & Head of Skin & Laser Aesthetics · Attending Physician, Licensed Aesthetic Attending

Skin and laser aesthetics · perioperative care

Dr. Ke He is Deputy Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center and head of its skin and laser aesthetic service at Chongqing West District Hospital. A core specialist formerly at the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Department of Xinqiao Hospital, she has worked on the clinical front line in skin laser and injectable aesthetics for more than 20 years.

Within this service her role is the part of the eye area that an operation does not address: pigment, skin quality and the surface of the skin around the eye, before and after any surgery.

Clinical focus

Pigmentation and skin-quality treatment around the eye
Skin assessment and preparation before surgery

Yongbo Jia (贾勇波)

Deputy Director & Head of Dermatology · Vice Chief Physician, Licensed Aesthetic Attending

Dermatology · skin disease that changes the eye area

Dr. Yongbo Jia is Deputy Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center and head of its dermatology service. He graduated from Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and trained in dermatology at the Institute of Dermatology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, and at Chongqing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Within this service his role is the skin condition rather than the shape: the allergic, inflammatory and pigment problems around the eye that change its appearance, that are not surgical, and that need to be identified before an operation is planned.

Clinical focus

Allergic and inflammatory skin disease of the face and eyelids
Pigment conditions around the eye
