Meet the Revision Eyelid Surgery Team

This site is led and medically reviewed by Tongchun Mao, MD, who performs eyelid and periocular surgery here and is responsible for the medical content. The other three physicians contribute what a revision assessment usually needs: the center’s surgical standards and its case review for a second operation on scarred tissue, the assessment of the eye surface itself and of the skin around the lids, and the dermatologic diagnosis of a lid that is inflamed or allergic rather than wrongly positioned.

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

Periocular and revision eyelid surgery · lid closure and exposure · crease height and tissue loss

Dr. Tongchun Mao is an aesthetic surgeon at Chongqing West District Hospital, where he is Deputy Director and Head of Aesthetic Surgery in its Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center and the responsible physician for this site. He personally performs more than 700 operations a year, within hospital standards of assessment, anaesthesia and follow-up.

On this site his part is the judgement that a second eyelid operation depends on what the first one removed. He examines closure before appearance, measures how much skin and fat remain, and looks at the surface of the eye, because a lid that no longer covers the eye is a different problem from a crease that sits too high and the two are not treated on the same timetable. Where the honest answer is that scarred or missing tissue limits what any operation can achieve, he says so before the plan rather than after it, and he treats the decision to wait as a plan rather than as a refusal.

Clinical focus

Revision eyelid assessment: closure, lid height, contour and the eye surface
Exposure and dry eye after a previous eyelid operation
Crease height, a crease that has disappeared, and asymmetry between the sides
Over-resection of skin or fat: hollow lids and a staring appearance
Reconstruction where eyelid tissue is scarred, tethered or missing

Closure comes before crease

The first question about an eyelid after surgery is not how it looks but whether it closes. An eye that is not covered is losing surface while everyone waits for the swelling to settle, and no discussion about crease height is worth having until the eye is protected. Once it is, most of the appearance questions turn out to need months of patience rather than another operation.

Shaoliang Wang (王韶亮)

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

Center leadership · surgical standards and complex revision

Dr. Shaoliang Wang is Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital. Within the team he provides the surgical perspective and the tertiary-hospital backstop — the assessment when an operation is the honest answer, and the hospital-level care for the rare complication that needs it.

Within this site his part is the standard a revision plan has to meet and the backstop behind it: the hospital-level assessment when an eye problem needs more than an outpatient visit, and the case review that a second operation on scarred tissue is held to.

Ke He (何锞)

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

Skin and laser aesthetics · the eye surface and the skin around it

Dr. Ke He is Deputy Director and head of skin and laser aesthetics within the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital. Within the team her role is the device and injectable assessment, and the honest referral when a problem needs an operation rather than a needle.

Within this site her part is the eye surface itself — the dryness, grittiness and irritation that decide how urgent a lid problem is and how much a further operation can safely change — together with the skin and scar quality of the lids that any revision has to work with.

Yongbo Jia (贾勇波)

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

Dermatology · inflammatory and allergic disease of the eyelid

Dr. Yongbo Jia is a dermatologist within the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital. Within the team his role is medical skin assessment — diagnosing and managing pigment and barrier conditions, and treating skin that a device or an injection has irritated.

Within this site his part is the lid that is red, crusted, swollen or itchy rather than wrongly positioned — the conditions that imitate a surgical problem, that are not corrected by an operation, and that have to be identified before a revision is planned.

Clinical focus

Medical skin assessment behind injectable treatment plans
Diagnosis and management of pigment and barrier conditions
Dermatologic care of skin after irritation or a delayed reaction

An eyelid problem is assessed before it is revised

Arrange an assessment. We will establish whether the eye is covered and comfortable, what the first operation removed, and whether the answer now is treatment, time, or a revision considered later.
