The results gallery lives on
the hospital’s Facebook page.

Before & after images go up on that page. The posts stay in chronological order, nothing is reordered, and the comments stay open. That is the most honest way for you to look and judge for yourself — rather than being shown a set of images we picked in advance.

A short guide

How to read a
before-and-after pair.

Before-and-after photographs are a useful tool, but only if you know what you are looking at. The four points below apply to any provider’s imagery, including ours.

  1. The same shooting conditions

    A before-and-after pair is only trustworthy when both images were taken at the same angle, in the same light, in the same posture and without make-up. A camera moved a few degrees, or a different light source, can produce a “result” no scalpel ever created.

  2. When the “after” was taken

    Look for the timing of the second image. Tissue stays swollen for weeks to months, and the final shape of a nose or a breast usually settles only after months of follow-up.

  3. Who actually operated

    A photograph means something only when you know who performed that case. It is a fair question to ask outright at your consultation: is the surgeon sitting in front of you the one who will hold the scalpel?

  4. Every starting point is different

    Bone structure, skin thickness, tissue quality and previous surgery differ from person to person. Someone else’s photographs show you a surgeon’s judgement and craft — they do not show you your own result.

What shapes a result

A result begins long before
the operating room.

One surgeon, start to finish

The surgeon who examines you and plans your operation is the surgeon who performs it. There is no hand-off between the person who consults and the person who operates.

The training behind it

Nguyễn Văn Phùng, MD, PhD — lecturer in the Department of Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy, HCMC; resident training at Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy and in France; close to fifteen years in practice.

The founder’s record

Including the difficult cases

The hospital’s scope includes revision of previously operated noses and breast reconstruction after cancer treatment — work that rests on a reconstructive foundation, not on cosmetic surgery alone.

Reconstructive surgery

The consultation

The images closest to your
case are shown in person.

Out of respect for patient privacy, part of our medical imagery is shown only in person at the hospital. That is also when it is most useful to see — once the surgeon has examined you and knows which cases genuinely resemble yours.

  1. The surgeon examines and assesses your actual anatomy — no conclusions are drawn from photographs sent ahead.
  2. The surgeon shows you the medical images closest to your own case, in private.
  3. You hear the plan, the limits of that plan and the recovery involved before you decide anything.

A note on how images are published

Images are published with the patient’s consent. Surgical outcomes depend on each person’s anatomy, tissue and healing — which is why the photographs of one case are never a promise of the result for anyone else.

A consultation where the surgeon examines you, shows the relevant imagery and is clear about what is realistic.
