Viet My Plastic Surgery Hospital

Viet My Plastic Surgery Hospital is a specialist aesthetic hospital at 331 Nguyen Trai Street, Cau Ong Lanh Ward, Ho Chi Minh City. Its legal name is Công ty TNHH Bệnh viện Chuyên khoa Thẩm mỹ Việt Mỹ, and the hospital publishes Ministry of Health operating licence 21/BYT-GPHĐ, issued on 28 December 2012. Dr Chiem Quoc Thai is identified as both the legal representative and the clinician responsible for professional and technical operations. This licensing information helps distinguish the hospital from beauty salons and similarly named general hospitals, but patients should still verify the licence and the individual practitioner responsible for their procedure.

The hospital’s current catalogue spans surgery and non-surgical aesthetic care. It is primarily a planned-procedure facility, not a general emergency hospital. International visitors should therefore use it for properly assessed consultations and scheduled treatment, while acute illness, major injury or a medical emergency requires an appropriate emergency department.

Surgical services and treatment scope

Viet My publishes a broad surgical menu covering breast surgery, rhinoplasty, eyelid and brow procedures, facial lifting, facial contouring, liposuction, abdominoplasty, buttock augmentation and autologous fat transfer. Its breast services include augmentation with different implant systems, breast lift, reduction and chest procedures described for transgender patients. Nose services include structural rhinoplasty, S-line techniques, tip and alar work and revision surgery. The catalogue also lists jaw surgery, chin augmentation, hairline lowering and selected intimate procedures.

The website additionally advertises hair-restoration methods including DHI/FUE, FUT and robotic hair transplantation. These are distinct procedures with different harvesting methods, scars, recovery patterns and suitability. A consultation should establish who will perform the extraction and implantation, the estimated graft range and whether the hospital is proposing surgery or a non-surgical scalp treatment.

A long service list does not prove that every operation is appropriate or available on every date. Ask which named surgeon will perform the procedure, whether the doctor’s Vietnamese practice certificate covers that work, who provides anaesthesia and where postoperative monitoring takes place. Readers comparing surgical settings can use Vietnam Clinic’s Ho Chi Minh City plastic surgery guide and Vietnam hair transplant comparison to prepare questions, not as substitutes for a medical assessment.

Non-surgical aesthetic and skin services

The hospital also publishes skin care, laser, injectable and device-based treatments. These include fillers, botulinum toxin, thread lifting, Ultherapy, facial treatments, laser hair removal and treatments presented for acne, scars and pigmentation. Cosmetic tattooing and scalp-related services also appear in its catalogue. The professional role of the person delivering these services matters: ask whether the treatment will be performed by a doctor, nurse, technician or aesthetician and what medical supervision is present.

For injectables, request the exact product name, manufacturer, sealed packaging, batch or lot number, expiry date and the dose or volume planned. For energy-based devices, ask for the machine model, treatment parameters, expected number of sessions and the response plan for burns, pigment changes or other complications. Marketing terms such as “advanced,” “safe” or “natural” do not predict an individual outcome. Anyone with active infection, a history of abnormal scarring, pregnancy, medication affecting clotting or a recent procedure should disclose it before treatment.

Consultation and preparation for surgery

Bring identification, a complete medication and supplement list, allergy information and records from previous cosmetic or medical procedures. If considering revision surgery, take the original operation report, implant documentation and relevant photographs or imaging. Tell the surgeon about nicotine use, diabetes, sleep apnoea, bleeding problems, cardiovascular or lung disease, previous anaesthetic reactions and any tendency to form keloid scars. Do not stop prescribed medicine without instructions from the clinician who manages it.

The consultation should produce a clear indication, realistic goals and alternatives, not only a package price. Ask the surgeon to explain the incision, implant or device if applicable, anaesthetic plan, expected admission time, likely scars, recovery restrictions and material risks. Request the procedure’s name in both Vietnamese and English if care may continue abroad. Before paying, obtain an itemised quotation covering surgeon, anaesthesia, operating room, implants, tests, medication, compression garments, inpatient care and scheduled reviews.

The hospital does not publish a complete, stable price list for every procedure on the current pages reviewed. Promotional reductions can expire or apply only to selected techniques. Confirm the final price, deposit, cancellation and refund conditions in writing. Private insurance commonly excludes elective cosmetic surgery, so do not assume reimbursement unless the insurer has authorised it for the specific indication.

Practical information for overseas patients

Viet My’s only current hospital address is 331 Nguyen Trai Street, Cau Ong Lanh Ward, in the central part of Ho Chi Minh City. The provider publishes telephone 028 3838 9595, hotline 0942 757 888 and email info@benhvienvietmy.com.vn. Its official legal-information page lists opening hours as Monday to Saturday 08:00–17:00 and Sunday morning 07:30–12:00, with doctors and nurses on duty during holidays. That does not mean every surgeon or service is available throughout those hours, so book the named doctor and confirm the date directly.

The website is predominantly Vietnamese. Having web content or a messaging contact does not establish that the surgeon, anaesthetist, nursing team and consent documents are available in English. State the language required when booking and ask whether a professional interpreter can attend the consultation, consent and discharge process. A friend or sales coordinator should not be the only person translating material risks.

Travellers should plan an in-person examination before the operation and remain in Ho Chi Minh City for the required follow-up. Ask how long the surgeon recommends waiting before flying, driving, exercising or returning to work. Arrange an adult companion when sedation or general anaesthesia is involved and choose accommodation that makes return visits practical. Avoid scheduling surgery so close to departure that an unexpected review or delayed recovery becomes impossible.

Recovery, documentation and continuity

Before leaving the hospital, obtain the operation report, discharge summary, prescriptions, wound-care instructions, implant card where relevant and a written list of warning signs. Confirm who answers clinical concerns outside routine opening hours and whether that contact reaches a nurse or doctor rather than only an appointment team. Ask which postoperative visits are included, when sutures or drains are managed and how long the operating surgeon remains responsible for review.

Remote photographs or messages may help with routine progress checks, but they cannot replace examination when there is concern about infection, bleeding, wound separation, reduced circulation or implant complications. Overseas patients should request records in a form that another doctor can understand. If a revision policy is discussed, obtain it in writing and clarify the difference between treatment of a medical complication and an optional aesthetic change.

When hospital or emergency assessment is required

After surgery, urgent symptoms include breathing difficulty, chest pain, fainting, confusion, heavy bleeding, rapidly increasing swelling, high fever, severe worsening pain or one-sided leg swelling. These require immediate clinical assessment; do not wait for a reply through social media. Use the hospital’s instructed emergency route or attend the nearest suitable emergency department.

Viet My’s specialist licence and surgical setting are relevant safeguards, but they do not eliminate risk. An independent medical opinion is reasonable when the proposed operation is extensive, combines several major procedures, promises an unusually fast recovery or does not include a clear anaesthetic and aftercare plan. Current licence, leadership, services, location and hours were checked on the hospital’s official legal-information page and official service site on 22 October 2026.
