Combined postpartum surgery · abdominoplasty and repair of the abdominal wall · breast and body contouring planned around recovery

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 working order is fixed and stated to patients. He starts with the problem that troubles you most and judges whether it is one problem or two, because a single dominant problem is often better served by one operation than by an ambitious combination. He then estimates what one anaesthetic can finish without hurrying, and reads that estimate against your blood count, your clotting history and your general health rather than against the list you have read about. Where the estimate is tight he names which component he would drop before the date is fixed, and he treats that as part of the plan rather than as a disappointment. He asks who lifts the child at home, and he has declined or postponed combined plans for patients whose households could not cover the first two weeks, on the grounds that the recovery is not the patient’s alone. When weight is still changing or another pregnancy is intended, he says so and asks the patient to return rather than operating around it.

Clinical focus

• Combined postpartum plans judged on anaesthetic duration rather than on the number of procedures
• Abdominoplasty and repair of the post-pregnancy abdominal wall
• Breast reshaping with or without volume, and when the second part is better staged
• Staging a plan across two admissions when the household cannot absorb one long recovery
• Deciding against a combination when one focused operation solves the problem
