The hospital
This site is published by Chongqing West District Hospital, a tertiary general hospital at 301 Huafu Avenue North Section, Jiulongpo District, Chongqing. Every reference to the hospital on this site means that institution, and the treating team practises within it.
Advertising and claims
This site describes scar treatments by substance and technology class and does not name a brand product, does not quote prices, does not quote dosages, and does not claim that treatment will produce a particular result. It states risks, limits and alternatives, including doing nothing, and it names the physician responsible for the medical content.
Honesty requirements for scars
Because a scar is a normal result of healing, this site does not present a scar as a complication or a failure of the operation that caused it. Because a scar keeps changing for twelve months or more, it states that early appearance is not final appearance wherever treatment is discussed. And because no treatment removes a scar, it says so plainly rather than implying otherwise.
Reviewer and review cycle
