Nanjing International Hospital — Medical Aesthetics Department

The teaching hospital of Nanjing University Medical School. Its Medical Aesthetics Department covers routine aesthetic surgery alongside revision work — eyelid and nasal revision, ear deformity repair, and aesthetic closure of traumatic wounds — and sits inside a hospital with the inpatient and emergency services that revision work can call for.

This page describes the partner department, as it publishes itself — its structure, its published figures and photographs, its physicians, their stated scope and their credentials are the department's own. The physicians are the shared part of the partnership: some of the doctors across the five partner departments also work at Luowei, alongside our own medical team. The department is a partner in the clinic's work, not a branch of it.

Who they are

Nanjing International Hospital is the affiliated hospital of Nanjing University Medical School, in Nanjing's Jianye District. Its Medical Aesthetics Department occupies part of the third floor of the hospital's outpatient building, and divides its work into four sub-disciplines: aesthetic dermatology, aesthetic surgery, aesthetic Chinese medicine, and plastic surgery. The department describes itself as one that combines medical treatment with service.

Routine work and revision work, in the same department

The department publishes two bands of work. The first is routine aesthetic surgery — double-eyelid surgery, eye-bag surgery, rhinoplasty, liposuction and fat grafting, breast augmentation. The second is the harder end: revision of previous eyelid and nasal surgery, repair of ear deformity, aesthetic closure of traumatic wounds, and wound repair.

That second band is the reason the department's hospital setting matters. Revision work is unpredictable by nature — what has to be done is decided by what was done before — and it is the kind of surgery where inpatient care or a second opinion from another specialty is most likely to be needed at short notice.

The department's own page says, in one line, that it has long been a leader in this field. This page does not reproduce that line and does not replace it with anything — see where the partnership ends. The department's structure and range are facts; a claim of leadership is not, and there is no version of it we could verify.

What the department covers

The department groups its work into two bands in its own description. This section transcribes the procedures it names. It is the department's list, not our recommendation.

Routine aesthetic surgery

  • Eyelid — double-eyelid creation, eye-bag surgery
  • Nose — rhinoplasty
  • Body — liposuction and fat grafting, breast augmentation

Revision, repair and reconstruction

  • Eyelid revision
  • Nasal revision
  • Ear deformity repair
  • Aesthetic closure of traumatic wounds
  • Wound repair

The department also states that it divides its own work into aesthetic dermatology, aesthetic surgery, aesthetic Chinese medicine and plastic surgery, and that the physicians below practise across those four areas. The split above is the procedure list, not the sub-discipline list — the department publishes the two separately and we have not merged them into a diagram the hospital did not draw.

The five physicians it publishes

Five physicians are listed for this department, each with a photograph, a rank, a list of positions and a stated scope. All five are below. They are the department's, named and ranked as the hospital publishes them. The photographs are the hospital's own portraits, on plain backgrounds; no hospital name is burned into any of them.

Two things about the lists below are worth reading before you scan them. First, the positions are long, and they are reproduced because the hospital publishes them — not because we have checked them. Second, some of them are not professional-society posts at all. The hospital's list mixes academic offices with certifications issued by device and injectable manufacturers, and the two are not the same kind of thing. Where we could tell them apart, this page says so.

Dr Shen Gan

Director of plastic surgery

Stated scope: trunk contouring; maxillofacial contouring; comprehensive rhinoplasty; ear reconstruction and repair; cleft lip and palate repair; and gender-affirming surgery.

Academic positions the hospital publishes, among them: committee member of the trunk-plastic-surgery, craniomaxillofacial and ear-reconstruction groups of the Chinese Medical Association's plastic surgery branch; committee member of the stem-cell group of the Chinese Medical Association's medical aesthetics and beauty branch; expert member of the repair-assistance centre of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association's aesthetic and plastic surgeons branch; vice chair of the breast-surgery group of the Chinese Association of Integrative Medicine's medical aesthetics committee; committee member of its ear-reconstruction expert committee and standing committee member of its healing and regenerative medicine expert committee; standing director of the stem-cell research and application branch and committee member of the nasal surgery and endoscopic plastic surgery branches of the China Association of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery; vice chair of the psychology group of the plastic and aesthetic speciality of the China Non-Government Medical Institutions Association; standing director of the Chinese Society of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery; committee member of the medical aesthetics and beauty branch and the burns, plastic surgery and aesthetics branch of the Jiangsu Medical Association and the Jiangsu Association of Integrative Medicine respectively; expert committee member of the Jiangsu Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery Association; and vice chair of the plastic surgery and burns branch of the Nanjing Medical Association.

The hospital also lists him on the Jiangsu expert registers for medical-dispute appraisal and for registered aesthetic attending physicians.

Translated from the profile the hospital publishes for him. We have not verified it with the hospital.

Dr Zhang Qun

Associate chief physician · plastic surgery

Stated scope: comprehensive eye surgery and eyelid revision; ptosis correction; tear-trough filling; fat grafting and platelet-rich plasma treatment; implant rhinoplasty and correction of nasal deformity; endoscopic breast augmentation, reduction mammaplasty, correction of ptosis and abdominoplasty; liposuction; intimate surgery; thread lifting; and facial lifting through a hairline incision.

The profile states five patented techniques and multiple papers in core and national journals.

Positions the hospital publishes include committee roles in the eye-surgery and nasal-surgery branches of the Chinese endoscopic and minimally invasive plastic surgery alliance, membership of the Jiangsu aesthetic and plastic surgery association, and roles in eye surgery and aesthetic design. The same list also carries appointments described as issued by named facial-implant manufacturers — including one phrased as a senior appointment at a manufacturer-run rhinoplasty institute. Those are vendor relationships, not academic posts. This page does not reproduce the brand names, and it will not describe a manufacturer's training programme as an academic institute.

Translated from the profile the hospital publishes for him. We have not verified it with the hospital.

Dr Zuo Li

Director of aesthetic dermatology

Stated scope: acne treatment; removal of pigmented marks; facial rejuvenation; female intimate rejuvenation; and laser treatment.

The profile states a master's degree in integrated Chinese and Western medicine from Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine.

Positions the hospital publishes include membership of the Jiangsu Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery Association; a council position in the injury treatment and rehabilitation branch of the China Association of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery; a committee position in the Chinese medicine aesthetics branch of the China Acupuncture Association; membership of the European Society of Aesthetic Gynaecology; and appearances as an expert on a Nanjing television health programme and as a guest medical professor at Jiangsu Open University.

The same list names several certifications issued by laser and injectable manufacturers, including one describing her as certified across a manufacturer's full laser range. The hospital lists these alongside the academic posts; they are not the same kind of credential. A manufacturer's certification records training on that company's product. We describe them as a group for that reason and do not reproduce the brand names.

Translated from the profile the hospital publishes for her. We have not verified it with the hospital.

Dr Li Yingchun

Associate chief physician · associate professor · master's supervisor

Translated from the profile the hospital publishes for him. We have not verified it with the hospital.

Every paragraph above is a translation of what the hospital publishes, and each says so underneath. The five are the complete published list for this department; where a profile ran long, the paragraph is long, and where it was three lines, the paragraph is three lines.

Where the partnership ends

A page like this can easily read as a claim that this department is ours, or that everything on it happened at Luowei. Neither is true.

  • These are the department's physicians. The names, ranks, positions, stated scope and photographs on this page belong to Nanjing International Hospital, and are reproduced as the hospital publishes them.
  • Major surgery is delivered by the partner department's own team — its surgeons and its anaesthesiology team, arranged with the department. Which team, and which facility, is confirmed with you in writing before anything is booked.
  • We have not independently verified what the hospital publishes, including the positions listed for each physician, the stated research records and the department's own description of itself. A long list of committee positions is not evidence about a surgeon's results, and we are not presenting it as any.
  • Two things were left out, deliberately, and here they are. The department's own page says it has long led this field; that sentence is not reproduced, because it is a claim of superiority and we have no way to check it. And the profiles mix professional-society offices with manufacturer-issued certifications; this page keeps them apart and does not reproduce the brand names, because a vendor's certification is not an academic qualification and reading the two as one list would overstate it. Both omissions are stated here rather than left for you to notice.
  • The clinic times published for each physician are not clinic times. Every one of these five profiles carries a field headed “clinic hours” whose contents are instructions for booking through the hospital's own appointment channel. That is a booking instruction, not a schedule, and we do not reproduce it or invent a schedule in its place. Ask us and we will confirm the current arrangement with the department.
  • We do not compare. This page describes one named partner department. It does not argue that this department, this city or this country is better than anywhere else, and it does not rank this department against the other partners on the partner index.
