Dr. Tongchun Mao is an aesthetic surgeon at Chongqing West District Hospital, where he is Deputy Director and Head of Aesthetic Surgery in its Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center and the physician responsible for this guide. He personally performs more than 700 operations a year, a high-volume practice held to hospital standards of assessment, anesthesia and follow-up.
His published scope is breast and body contouring: breast augmentation with implants or the patient’s own fat, mastopexy, breast reduction for symptomatic macromastia, nipple and areola surgery, abdominoplasty, liposuction and staged contouring after major weight loss. Chest contouring in men sits within that scope, and it is planned the same way as the rest of it — from an assessment of what the tissue actually is.
His stated approach is the one this guide is built on: measure before designing, choose the smallest operation that achieves the stated goal, and be explicit about what remains uncertain. On this site that means the assessment comes before the plan, because whether the tissue is glandular, fatty or both decides whether an operation can help and which one is appropriate.

How he frames the decision
Every consultation is also a decision about whether surgery should happen at all. Where the enlargement is recent, or a cause has not been excluded, the honest answer is to wait.
