It includes reconstructive surgery, craniofacial surgery, hand surgery, cosmetic surgery, and burn surgery. Hand surgery addresses acute injuries and chronic diseases of the hand and wrist, diagnoses and treats peripheral nerve injuries or compression problems (such as carpal tunnel syndrome or cubital tunnel syndrome), and corrects congenital or acquired deformities of the upper limbs. Medical aesthetic procedures: minimally invasive facial surgery: double-eyelid surgery, removal of eye bags, removal of dark circles under the eyes, facial lifting, chin augmentation, rhinoplasty; facial filling and contour adjustment—hyaluronic acid filler injections: nonsurgical treatment and skin regeneration procedures such as cheekbone, chin, and nose augmentation; laser cosmetic treatments.

Reconstructive plastic surgery: repair of skin lacerations, especially fine, minimally scarred repair of facial and scalp trauma; skin grafting or flap reconstruction for refractory wounds; burn treatment; radical excision of benign and malignant skin tumors of the body surface and repair and reconstruction of secondary wounds; facial cosmetic surgery (ptosis and accessory ears); correction of nipple deformities; treatment of paronychia and ingrown nails.
