General plastic surgery · skin lesion and skin cancer excision · wound repair · revision surgery

Dr. Shaoliang Wang is Center Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital, a tertiary general hospital in Chongqing. He is a plastic and reconstructive surgeon whose general plastic surgery practice is built around the assessment and removal of skin lesions, the repair of wounds, and the revision of scars and previous operations.

His scope on this site is the everyday surgical work of plastic surgery and surgical dermatology: deciding whether a growth needs to come off at all, excising benign lesions such as moles, cysts and lipomas, removing skin cancers with controlled margins and sending every specimen for pathology, closing defects with direct closure, grafts or local flaps, expanding tissue where extra skin is needed, revising scars, and treating common problems of the hand and tendons. These operations are planned around each patient’s anatomy and goals, and performed with the pathology, anesthesia, and emergency resources of a tertiary general hospital in the same building.

Scope of practice

• Assessment and diagnosis of skin lesions, including when the right answer is to watch rather than cut
• Surgical excision of benign lesions: moles, cysts, lipomas, dermatofibromas and skin tags
• Excision of skin cancers — basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma — with controlled margins and pathology confirmation
• Reconstruction after excision: layered direct closure, skin grafts, and local flaps chosen to fit the defect
• Complex and poorly healing wound repair, including wounds over exposed structures
• Scar revision and the revision of previous cosmetic operations, with their limits stated in advance
• Tissue expansion where extra skin of matching quality is needed
• Common hand and tendon problems, including tendon and nerve injuries, cysts and finger infections

How he works

• Diagnosis before excision: nothing is removed on the strength of an impression alone, and no lesion is called benign without the option of histology
• Honest option comparison before any operation, including the option of no surgery at all
• The scar, the recovery, and the chance that a further operation may be needed are stated before consent, not after
• Real complication risks discussed openly; no guaranteed outcomes, no promised clearance before the pathologist has reported
• Long-term follow-up and repeat skin checks as part of the treatment, not an afterthought
