Quick PSA after my jaw contouring in Chengdu last month: get EVERY quote in writing, in English AND the local language. My clinic added a "premium suture" line item on the morning of surgery that was never mentioned in consult — about 8600 USD extra. I paid because I was already prepped. The result itself is good. Dr. Zhang clearly knows the anatomy. But the billing experience left a bad taste. Bring a friend who can read the contract.
