Dr. Ke He is Deputy Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital and head of its skin and laser aesthetic service — and she is the lead physician of this site. A core specialist formerly at the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Department of Xinqiao Hospital, affiliated with Army Medical University, she has worked on the clinical front line in skin laser and injectable aesthetics for more than 20 years, serving over ten thousand patients.
On this site her part is the assessment that decides depth. She reads the skin at the bedside through colour, sensation and how the surface behaves, records where the injury sits and how large it is, and decides from that whether it is managed in the clinic with dressings and review or referred to a burns service. She treats the immediate phase and the healing phase as two different problems, and she refuses to begin pigment or scar treatment while the skin is still closing, because adding inflammation to skin that is already inflamed makes the outcome worse rather than better. Where pigment has been lost, she says plainly that recovery cannot be assumed, and she documents what the skin looked like at each stage so that the record follows the patient.
Clinical focus
Academic roles & achievements
Depth is decided early, and it decides everything
A burn that is superficial reddens and settles; the same skin a layer deeper heals slowly, scars and can lose pigment permanently. Because that judgement is made at the bedside and changes what happens next, a burn is assessed early rather than watched for a few days — and it is the reason this site puts prevention and depth above every corrective option it describes.
