Treatment prices are valid ONLY for patients who come directly for treatment on a medical visa!

In the field of cosmetology, Chinese specialists are not inferior in professionalism to their European colleagues. China uses leading methods for rejuvenating the face and body, and uses advanced technologies to perform minimally invasive surgeries.

However, Chinese approaches differ significantly from Western ones. Doctors start from the fact that skin appearance problems are acquired or congenital. In the case when a person wants to get rid of an acquired skin defect, the doctor conducts an initial examination of the patient’s body, trying to find the source of problems with the dermis.

There are a number of reasons that influence the appearance of serious cosmetic defects. Here are some of them:

• obesity;
• metabolic disease;
• intoxication of the body;
• allergies;
• problems in the functioning of internal organs.

Highly qualified cosmetologists and doctors at the Eurasia Hospital provide comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of painful conditions of the dermis. The cosmetology department performs basic procedures to improve the appearance of the skin, corrective and restorative procedures for the face and body, as well as complex, rejuvenating, minimally invasive surgeries.

Methods for solving cosmetic problems

Cosmetological problems are characterized by varying degrees of severity and can occur in people of any age. In some cases, a person may be dissatisfied with his appearance or not perceive the signs of aging. In other cases, the patient has defects that cause significant discomfort and interfere with the aesthetic perception of his appearance.

These points are analyzed separately by doctors, then a plan is drawn up to eliminate the cosmetic problem.

The treatment method is combined: modern cosmetic procedures are often accompanied by TCM sessions that promote rapid recovery.

Our doctors take a responsible approach to each patient, since the presence of chronic diseases can affect the regeneration process of areas undergoing procedures.

Caution! Thus, some types of minimally invasive interventions are not recommended for diabetes and hypertension. In such cases, they are replaced by other correction methods, for example, laser.

• Nostrils that are too large or asymmetrical;

How China is trying to stop the “race for beauty”

Chinese newspaper People's Daily condemned plastic surgery advertising and called for urgent regulation of the industry. There are too many advertisements, and most of them disseminate false information, which can lead to dire consequences for patients.

According to the publication, commercials associate good looks with a “sign of quality,” “hard work,” and “success,” inventing stories about how “plastic surgery changes one’s destiny.”

“From posters at bus stops and subways to announcements on social networks and entertainment platforms, from advertising in films and television to promotions hosted by live broadcasters, advertising of medical cosmetic services is ubiquitous,” says the statement published on the official website. website of the newspaper of the ruling Communist Party.

The demand for plastic surgery or aesthetic cosmetology in China has really increased sharply in recent years, writes Business of Fashion.

. The most popular procedures are rhinoplasty (reshaping the nose) and blepharoplasty, which allows you to make your eyes wider. Clinics try to get clients by any means without warning them about the risks.

It is no coincidence that journalists are worried. In July, almost the entire Chinese press wrote about a 33-year-old influencer who died after unsuccessful liposuction.

Another high-profile news story was the incident that occurred with actress Gao Liu at the beginning of 2022. Due to the complications that began after the plastic surgery, the tissue on the tip of her nose died. The celebrity admitted that she would need another operation to correct the situation, and the treatment had already cost her more than 4.5 million rubles. in terms of Russian money, provides data from the BBC

. Her doctor was suspended from work for six months, and the hospital was fined the equivalent of 553 thousand rubles. Many Internet users considered this punishment not severe enough.

According to the Chinese publication Global Times

(“Huanqiu Shibao”), in 2022 there were more than 60 thousand unlicensed plastic surgery clinics in the country. They perform about 40 thousand unsuccessful operations per year, that is, an average of 110 unsuccessful operations per day.

In June this year, China's National Health Commission announced the launch of a campaign to combat unlicensed clinics providing medical services. They also promised to investigate customer complaints more quickly. Already in August, the government agency responsible for market regulation (State Administration for Market Regulation) prepared a project that would allow regulating advertising of aesthetic medicine.

However, the Chinese “race for beauty” continues. Social media influencers with “ideal looks” and employers play a huge role here. In China, applicants are often required to have a photograph, and some advertisements specify required physical characteristics. This applies especially to women.

Chinese tabloids also add fuel to the fire by regularly criticizing the appearance of stars. And earlier this year, a Shanghai art gallery announced an exhibition in which photographs of women were ranked from "most beautiful to ugliest."

Among other things, China has created special offers for communication between users interested in plastic surgery, where they can also find surgeons.

The most popular of them, Gengmei (translated from Chinese as “more beautiful”), has grown from 1 million users to 36 million since its launch in 2013, the BBC reports.

. Most of the accounts are registered for girls around 20 years old. The So-Young platform works in a similar way, which showed an increase in monthly users from 1.4 million in 2022 to 8.4 million in 2021.

The plastic surgery market in China is expected to grow to $46.54 billion by 2022, Chinese state news agency Xinhua reported, citing a report by the China Association of Plastic and Aesthetics.

However, in July, the market value of the three largest companies involved in aesthetic medicine fell by a third, which together amounts to more than $17 billion. The Financial Times

. Analysts for the business publication warn that if authorities in Beijing begin to strictly regulate the plastic surgery industry and everything connected with it, it could suffer greatly, as was the case after sanctions for the online gaming market.

Nasal examinations before surgery

Before any surgical intervention, the patient must undergo a preliminary examination. This is necessary in order to exclude contraindications to the operation and determine the scope of work for the surgeon.

Standard diagnostics before rhinoplasty include:

• Laboratory tests of blood and urine;
• ECG - electrocardiography to study the functioning of the heart;
• Fluorography of the thoracic region.

The patient needs a preoperative consultation with a specialist to discuss all complaints and determine the desired result based on the appearance of the nose after surgery.

For a more detailed study, the doctor may additionally prescribe rhinoscopy - a visual diagnosis of the nasal cavity. In some cases, the doctor performs an MRI or CT scan of the nose if plastic surgery is necessary after a mechanical injury.

Preparing for nose correction surgery

According to the recommendations of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, before surgery, the patient should avoid taking aspirin, herbal and anti-inflammatory drugs. This can impair blood clotting and cause post-operative complications. Smoking tobacco products is strictly prohibited, as exposure to nicotine slows down tissue healing.

In some highly specialized medical centers, the patient is given a visualization of the future shape of the nose. This is done using special 3D modeling devices. This way the patient will be able to see the result, what the face will look like after rhinoplasty.

Recovery after rhinoplasty

A week after the operation, the doctor removes the bandage from the patient. To speed up the recovery process, the specialist will give recommendations regarding postoperative care at home. You should refrain from physical activity and sports for at least three weeks.

After plastic surgery, the patient will experience swelling and bruising for several weeks, which is normal. There may be numbness in the tip of the nose, which goes away after a few months. Therefore, the real effect can be assessed only half a year after surgery.
