Deputy Director & Head of Skin & Laser Aesthetics · Attending Physician, Licensed Aesthetic Attending · Lead Physician of This Site

Injectable product assessment · skin quality against volume · reading a product claim by class

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 review her part is keeping the products apart. She names the product and the class before discussing what it does, treats the evidence for the best-studied injected class as belonging to that class rather than to the category, and distinguishes a treatment for skin quality from one for volume because the two are different indications with different products. Where a product has a thin evidence base she says so plainly rather than letting the reader infer the strongest case from the group, which is the inference the category is built to encourage.

Clinical focus

  • Naming the product and the class before discussing what it does
  • Skin quality against volume: two different indications and two products
  • What the best-studied injected class supports, and where that stops
  • Reading an approval as product-specific and market-specific
  • When skincare, a single treatment, or nothing is the better-supported option

Academic roles & achievements

  • Member, Laser Medicine Group, Chinese Medical Association Plastic Surgery Branch
  • Member, Facial Rejuvenation Group, Chinese Medical Association Plastic Surgery Branch
  • Member, Chongqing Plastic Surgery Quality Control Center
  • Published 5 papers, holds 5 national patents, and introduced 2 new clinical techniques

A category is not an evidence base

Skin booster is a name for a way of placing a substance, and the products inside it are not interchangeable. Evidence belongs to a product and an indication, so a strong result for one member of the group is a fact about that product — and a page that describes the category while quoting it has moved the finding somewhere it does not belong.
