Kangnam Aesthetic Hospital Hanoi

Kangnam Aesthetic Hospital Hanoi is the licensed hospital at 190 Truong Chinh, Kim Lien Ward, Hanoi. The provider publishes Ministry of Health operating licence 194/BYT-GPHĐ for aesthetic surgery. Its current branch page lists rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, maxillofacial procedures, breast surgery, liposuction and abdominal contouring, alongside dermatology and skin-rejuvenation services. It also describes preoperative testing, sterile operating rooms and monitored recovery.

This hospital must not be confused with the Kangnam aesthetic-institute network or a similarly numbered commercial site. The official contact directory identifies 190 Truong Chinh as the northern hospital route for major surgery. International patients should place the full address on every booking, quote and consent document.

The hospital route at 190 Truong Chinh

Kangnam's own directory separates two aesthetic hospitals from its smaller institutes. The Hanoi hospital is the facility described as performing major operations in licensed operating theatres. That distinction matters for procedures requiring anaesthesia, laboratory screening or recovery monitoring. A consultation or promotional event at another branch does not establish that surgery will occur there.

Before paying, request confirmation that the operation and recovery will take place at 190 Truong Chinh, identify any other facility involved and check that the invoice names the licensed legal entity. The hospital page links to the Hanoi health authority's licence search, allowing patients to verify the operating record independently.

Facial and nose surgery

The Hanoi branch publishes structural rhinoplasty, revision nose surgery, eyelid procedures, V-line jaw reduction, correction of protruding or underbite jaws, cheekbone reduction, chin procedures and facial fat grafting. These options range from minor surgery to major skeletal operations and should not be grouped together as interchangeable “facial aesthetics.”

A surgical consultation should document the anatomical concern, functional symptoms where relevant, proposed technique, implants or graft material, scars, alternatives and realistic limitations. For jaw surgery, ask how bite, dental records and maxillofacial planning are assessed and whether orthodontic coordination is needed. For revision surgery, bring prior operative reports and implant details whenever possible.

Breast surgery and body contouring

The hospital lists breast augmentation and lifting, liposuction, abdominal contouring and autologous fat grafting. Its branch page describes specialist review and health testing before major surgery. Eligibility cannot be established from photographs submitted online, and no branded technique removes the general risks of anaesthesia, bleeding, infection, thrombosis, asymmetry, scarring or revision.

Ask for the implant manufacturer, model, size, warranty and device card before breast surgery. For liposuction or abdominal surgery, clarify the planned treatment areas, expected fluid management, compression garments, mobility plan and thrombosis precautions. An itemised quote should distinguish the surgeon, anaesthesia, operating theatre, implant or consumables, hospital stay, medicines and follow-up.

Dermatology and non-surgical aesthetics

Kangnam also publishes acne, scar and pigmentation treatment, high-technology skin rejuvenation, injectable rejuvenation, thread lifting, laser tattoo removal and cosmetic skin care. Some of these may be offered across the wider Kangnam system, so international patients should verify that the exact service and responsible clinician are available at the Hanoi hospital on the selected date.

Disclose pregnancy, allergies, autoimmune conditions, tendency to keloid scarring, prior fillers, threads or lasers, active infection and medicines that affect bleeding or photosensitivity. An aesthetic consultation is not a substitute for medical dermatology when a lesion is changing, a rash is unexplained or prescription treatment is required.

Preoperative assessment is more than an online photo

The provider offers online screening and asks prospective patients to send photographs, but its own hospital pathway still includes direct specialist examination and health testing. The published process mentions blood tests, blood pressure and cardiovascular assessment before surgery. Online discussion can help with scheduling and a preliminary cost range; it cannot complete informed consent or confirm fitness for anaesthesia.

Bring a medical history, allergies, current medicines and supplements, previous anaesthetic problems, smoking or vaping status, pregnancy possibility and relevant laboratory or imaging records. Do not stop anticoagulants, diabetes medicines or other prescribed treatment unless the responsible medical team and original prescriber give appropriate instructions.

Surgeons, roles and named responsibility

The current Hanoi branch page assigns named doctors to nose and eyelid surgery and to breast and body work, and it identifies maxillofacial care as a specialist team. Kangnam's international material also describes licensed plastic surgeons, oral and maxillofacial surgeons and dermatologists. Staff listings can change, so the surgeon responsible for a case should be confirmed at the time of booking.

Ask for the surgeon's full legal name, practising-certificate details, exact role and experience with the proposed operation. Confirm who administers anaesthesia, who covers the ward after hours and who would manage a complication. Consent should not rely only on a salesperson or coordinator.

Operating rooms, recovery and discharge

The hospital page states that major surgery takes place in sterile operating rooms followed by monitored recovery and a scheduled review. It also describes specialist conference for major jaw, breast and liposuction cases. These are relevant facilities, but they do not make complications impossible or mean every patient can safely leave the same day.

Before surgery, obtain written admission and discharge criteria, the expected observation period and the contact route for urgent postoperative problems. Ask where transfer would occur if a higher level of emergency or intensive care were required. A patient travelling alone should confirm whether an adult escort is required after sedation or general anaesthesia.

International coordination and language

Kangnam's English-language site publishes a dedicated international support team and an international hotline, and its appointment form supports phone, Zalo, WhatsApp and Viber contact. This demonstrates an international coordination pathway, but it does not prove that every clinical conversation, consent form or overnight nursing interaction is available in a particular language.

Request English support specifically and ask whether a qualified interpreter is available for the surgeon and anaesthetist discussions. If consent or discharge instructions are not fully understood, postpone the decision until accurate interpretation is arranged. The structured language field remains empty because the reviewed official pages do not state a definitive hospital-wide language list.

Hours and the two official telephone routes

The current Hanoi hospital page publishes clinical hours of 08:00–17:30 every day. The main Vietnamese network hotline is 0968 999 777 and the international site gives +84 981 615 151 for overseas clients. The profile uses the international number while recording the general route in the text. Kangnam also publishes benh_vienthammy@kangnam.com.vn as its quality-contact email.

The network hotline may operate beyond hospital consultation hours. A 24/7 telephone line is not proof that the operating theatre, outpatient desk or surgeon is continuously available. Obtain a dated appointment confirmation and a separate postoperative emergency number.

Planning surgery from outside Vietnam

Do not base travel on the shortest advertised timeline. Allow enough time for examination, tests, surgery, observation, early wound review and unexpected delay. Ask when flying, heavy lifting, exercise, swimming and long overland journeys may resume. Major procedures may require more local recovery than marketing schedules suggest.

Before leaving Hanoi, collect the operative report, implant or device documentation, medication list, laboratory results, discharge summary and follow-up plan. Confirm whether another Kangnam branch can provide the required review and whether that arrangement is clinical follow-up or a commercial warranty service. The two are not identical.

Costs, promotions and insurance

Kangnam publishes price ranges and time-limited promotions, but the final cost depends on examination and the selected procedure. Discount deadlines should not compress the time needed for independent consideration. Ask whether deposits are refundable, what could increase the price and whether revision, complication care or extra hospital nights are included.

The reviewed official pages do not provide a definitive foreign-insurance or payment-method list. Elective cosmetic surgery is often excluded from health policies, while treatment of complications may be handled differently. Obtain written confirmation directly from the insurer rather than assuming reimbursement.

When a general hospital is more appropriate

Kangnam is a specialist aesthetic hospital, not a substitute for a full general emergency department. Chest pain, breathing difficulty, signs of stroke, severe bleeding, collapse, suspected embolism, high fever with rapid deterioration or another life-threatening event requires emergency care; call 115 in Vietnam when appropriate.

A second opinion may be valuable for major facial, breast or body surgery, revision operations and cases involving functional symptoms. Vietnam Clinic's comparison of plastic surgery clinics in Hanoi can help identify alternatives, but selection still depends on licensing, the named surgeon, anaesthesia, facilities, follow-up and an individual risk assessment.
