Meet the Skin and Laser Team

Skin & laser aesthetics · needle and energy-based resurfacing · the texture-or-laxity assessment

Dr. Ke He is Deputy Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital and head of its skin and laser aesthetic service — and she is the lead physician of this site. A core specialist formerly at the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Department of Xinqiao Hospital, affiliated with Army Medical University, she has worked on the clinical front line in skin laser and injectable aesthetics for more than 20 years, serving over ten thousand patients.

Both techniques compared on this site are performed in Dr. He's service, and the judgement she applies to them is the same one she applies to every device-based plan: whether the change the patient is describing is one that controlled injury can reach. Her position is that the target is decided by examination rather than by preference, that the simpler technique is the right answer for texture in firm skin, and that heat at depth is reserved for people who need what it reaches rather than offered as the newer option. She declines both in active acne, in an active infection, and in skin loose enough that neither technique will change what the patient actually sees.
