The hospital

This site is published by Chongqing West District Hospital, a tertiary general hospital at 301 Huafu Avenue North Section, Jiulongpo District, Chongqing. Every reference to the hospital on this site means that institution, and the treating team practises within it.

Advertising and claims

This site describes eyelid surgery by technique class and does not name a brand product, does not quote prices, does not quote dosages, and does not claim that an operation will produce a particular result. It states risks, limits and alternatives, including doing nothing, and it names the physician responsible for the medical content.

Honesty requirements for this area

Because a lid margin that sits lower than it did is the complication that defines this operation, the risk of retraction and ectropion is stated plainly wherever an operation on the lower lid is described, together with the finding that predicts it. Because fat that is removed cannot be put back, the argument for conservative removal is stated wherever tissue removal is discussed, and the possibility of a hollow eye is named rather than left out.
