If you are considering surgery in Shanghai, start with who will treat you, what they propose and how care will continue. A photograph you like can open the discussion, but it cannot answer those questions for you.
Define the change you want
Describe concerns separately: the bridge or tip of the nose, eyelid balance, or facial laxity. Include previous procedures and clear photographs. Ask the surgeon to explain the proposed areas, limitations and alternatives.
Verify the hospital and doctor
Obtain the hospital’s Chinese and English names, branch, address and consulting doctor. Confirm them through the provider’s official channels. Ask where the procedure takes place, who operates and what support is available if additional care is needed.
Read reviews with context
Look for the source, actual procedure and time since treatment. Lighting, angles and makeup can affect comparisons. Use the detail you like as a question for your own consultation rather than a promised result.
Plan costs and continuity
Request an itemised quotation, interpreter coverage and confirmed follow-up schedule. Leave flexibility in flights and accommodation, and agree how you will contact the hospital after returning home. Santongsuai can help enquire about coordination; provider, service scope and medical suitability need individual confirmation.
