Key Department Guide

Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery

The Department of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery offers services including scar repair, correction of congenital malformations, breast augmentation, excision and repair of superficial tumors, microsurgical reconstruction, and cosmetic surgery and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures. Treatment emphasizes both function and appearance, individualized planning, and thorough risk disclosure. For burn scar contractures, post-mastectomy reconstruction, cleft lip and palate repair, and traumatic deformities, reconstructive surgery can improve both function and appearance. Cosmetic treatments require a thorough assessment of indications, psychological expectations, and the risk of complications. Postoperatively, attention should be paid to issues such as infection, hematoma, scar hyperplasia, sensory abnormalities, and asymmetry.
