Biography

Chen Fuguo: PhD in Plastic Surgery, Associate Chief Physician. In clinical practice, he has successively studied under multiple experts of national and international renown at the birthplace of plastic surgery in China——Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, striving for perfection in every detail of surgery; constantly refining every surgical step; seeking the utmost proficiency in every procedure; and improving and innovating each surgical method from the perspective appreciated by patients. To further explore rhinoplasty strategies and facial plastic surgery techniques suitable for Asians, he successively visited and studied for more than a year with multiple professors at renowned institutions, including the hospital of Dr Suh, President of the Korean Rhinoplasty Association; Dr Rohrich and Dr Byrd, globally renowned Dallas rhinoplasty experts in the United States; the Department of Plastic Surgery, ENT Facial Plastic Center, and Eye Aesthetic Center at the University of Michigan Hospital, which ranks third among U.S. public universities and has produced numerous distinguished figures. He devoted himself to studying the secrets of success of these international masters. Hard work pays off: through long-term unremitting study and effort, he gradually acquired solid basic skills in complex plastic surgery and gradually developed his own distinctive characteristics. He has formed a complete set of mature approaches and techniques in fields including full-cartilage comprehensive rhinoplasty, repair of difficult rhinoplasty cases, revision after failed comprehensive rhinoplasty, comprehensive aesthetic repair of cleft lip nose, male organ reconstruction/repair & gender-affirming surgery, autologous fat injection & repair, and minimally invasive injection. In clinical practice, adhering to the principle of patient-centered care, he carries out appropriate exploration and innovation and has received extensive praise from patients.

Chen Fuguo's Rhinoplasty Specialties:
1. Dedicated to creating an implant-free “real nose”: minimally invasive rib cartilage harvest through a mini-incision (the smallest being only 0.7 cm, the size of a fingernail), using the minimum amount of rib cartilage and an ultra-high cartilage utilization rate; adopting concrete theory from modern architecture to allow arbitrary shaping of rib cartilage without long-term warping; combined with superb techniques from classic Dallas nasal tip aesthetics, creating a fully natural, implant-free slightly upturned nose;

2. With profound aesthetic expertise and exceptional patience, he plans for perfection before surgery and uses professional software for on-site simulation and design, accurately capturing your aesthetic preferences; during surgery, he precisely positions the cartilage and uses threefold correction measures to prevent deviation, crookedness, and mismatch; intraoperative real-time actual-effect images are generated to prevent surgical deviations and comprehensively prevent “classic” failed noses such as the internet-famous “high-heeled shoe nose,” parrot-beak nose, and Pinocchio nose.

3. Dedicated to the repair of various failed noses, including severe failed-nose revisions such as deformation after multiple failed implant rhinoplasties, severe nasal tip contracture deformity after infection, deformity after failed rib cartilage rhinoplasty, and deformity after failed injection of unknown substances (such as toxic substances like polyacrylamide hydrogel). He specializes in full-cartilage comprehensive rhinoplasty, full-cartilage nasal tip plasty, full-cartilage nasal dorsum augmentation (minimally invasive), and aesthetic revision after various difficult failed rhinoplasties;

4. Dedicated to the aesthetic repair and beautification of congenital nasal hypertrophy; abandoning the simple and crude, ineffective treatment of excising nasal tip tissue, and effectively avoiding the fate of the nasal tip becoming larger with each reduction; deeply understanding the fundamental aesthetic principles of nasal size, effectively correcting hypertrophy, expansion, and distortion of the nasal tip cartilage; precisely adjusting the proportions of the nasal cartilage framework to approach the golden ratio infinitely; at the same time, redistributing the excess of thick skin and further precisely calculating the additional cartilage adjustment required, thereby truly creating a petite nose*.

5. Dedicated to aesthetic repair of cleft lip nose: not limited to the traditional “disease treatment” concept of cleft lip nose repair, he repairs cleft lip nose with pure medical aesthetics concepts and techniques. He not only restores the combined nasolabial deformity, but also, guided by aesthetic perspective, height, and proportions, uses rib cartilage as material and minimally invasive methods to restore nasal appearance and create an aesthetic cleft lip nose comparable to the results of normal comprehensive rhinoplasty;

6. Dedicated to aesthetic nasal reconstruction: using aesthetic rhinoplasty as the standard to minimize trauma; with the precision of subunit aesthetics, creating aesthetic total nasal reconstruction; using autologous rib cartilage as the “keel of the building,” precisely positioning the necessary height, length, proportions, and junctions with comprehensive rhinoplasty techniques, and covering with a forehead flap of matching color to create an aesthetically reconstructed nose that looks remarkably natural.
