In December 2025, Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan embarked on a professional training and learning trip to Shanghai, China. This activity is part of his commitment to continuous learning, updating international knowledge, and enhancing his treatment mindset in the field of facial aesthetic surgery.
Throughout the activities of the trip, Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan had the opportunity to observe clinical practices, exchange ideas with doctors in Shanghai, and learn more about image analysis processes, surgical planning, and the application of 3D technology in evaluating facial structures.
Beyond maxillofacial techniques, the training trip also helped Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan update his knowledge regarding eye aesthetics and the "Shanghai-style" rhinoplasty technique—two technical areas that require subtlety in assessing proportions, expressions, and overall facial harmony.
Training Trip in Shanghai
The training trip in Shanghai focused on content related to maxillofacial surgery, facial structural orthopedics, and facial contouring. These are technical groups requiring doctors to have a solid anatomical foundation, accurate image analysis capabilities, and experience in constructing personalized treatment plans.
In maxillofacial surgery, each case has different characteristics regarding bone structure, occlusion, soft tissue, facial proportions, and aesthetic desires. Therefore, participating in international training programs helps doctors gain practical perspectives, update new approaches, and become more refined in the pre-operative assessment process.
Observation in the Operating Room
An important part of the trip was observing the surgical environment. Here, Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan had the opportunity to learn how professional teams prepare, coordinate, and control processes in the operating room.
For surgeries involving the maxillofacial region, pre-operative preparation plays a crucial role. From evaluating scans and determining bone structures to planning interventions and ensuring safety during surgery, every step needs to be performed carefully with close coordination among team members. Direct observation helps doctors gain practical experience in organizing surgical procedures, approaching each clinical case, and noting factors during intervention.
Consultation and Assessment Process
In addition to surgical techniques, the trip provided Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan with perspectives on consultation and pre-operative assessment processes.
In maxillofacial surgery, consultation is not merely discussing aesthetic desires. Doctors must analyze the actual condition, assess intervention limits, clearly explain appropriate plans, and help clients understand the treatment process correctly. A good surgical plan must be based on a combination of client wishes, anatomical characteristics, imaging data, and safety principles. This is why the process of examination, scanning, 3D analysis, and professional consultation must be performed thoroughly before providing indications.
Exchange with Experts
During the training trip in Shanghai, Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan had time for professional exchange with local doctors and experts. These sessions helped the doctor update his experience in analyzing clinical cases, selecting intervention options, and controlling pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative processes. With fields requiring high precision such as maxillofacial bone surgery, maxillofacial orthopedics, and facial contouring, learning from international professional environments is a critical opportunity for doctors to broaden their perspectives and perfect their treatment thinking.
Updating Eye Aesthetics and Shanghai-style Rhinoplasty
Alongside content related to maxillofacial surgery and 3D technology application, during the training trip in Shanghai, Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan also had the opportunity to learn about eye aesthetic techniques and the "Shanghai-style" rhinoplasty technique.
In the eye aesthetics group, doctors must evaluate many factors such as eyelid structure, eye openness, crease proportions, symmetry, and harmony between the eyes and the overall face. This group of techniques requires subtlety, as the eye area not only affects appearance but also directly relates to the face’s expressions, emotions, and youthfulness.
Regarding the "Shanghai-style" rhinoplasty technique, Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan updated his analysis of nose shapes in a refined, modern direction that remains suitable for Asian facial features. The "Shanghai-style" nose shape usually focuses on harmony between the nasal root, bridge, tip, columella, and the nasolabial angle, aiming for a shape with natural "lift," softness, and balance with the overall face. Learning these techniques helps Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan expand his overall aesthetic perspective. He focuses not only on jawbone structure but also on the balance between the eyes, nose, facial features, and the unique expression of each client.
Value from the Training Trip
The training trip to Shanghai in December 2025 provided Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan with much practical experience in areas such as image analysis, 3D technology application, surgical planning, operating room procedure observation, and professional exchange.
Additionally, the doctor updated his knowledge of eye aesthetic techniques and "Shanghai-style" rhinoplasty, contributing to a more complete mindset for assessing overall facial aesthetics. These factors are significant in modern aesthetic surgery. Surgical results depend not only on the execution technique but also on the entire initial assessment process, planning, safety control, and harmony between facial features.
Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan’s Orientation
Through the training trip in Shanghai, Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan continues to demonstrate a development orientation based on a foundation of medical expertise, aesthetic mindset, technology application, and continuous learning.
Updating knowledge from international training trips provides Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan with the basis to perfect professional processes, especially in fields such as maxillofacial surgery, facial bone orthopedics, facial contouring, eye aesthetics, rhinoplasty, and the application of 3D technology in treatment planning. The training trip to Shanghai is a noteworthy milestone in Dr. Nguyen Duy Huan’s learning and professional development journey, contributing to consolidating an orientation toward safe, personalized aesthetics that harmonize with each facial feature.
