Cosmetic Surgery Procedures in London
Ms Prousskaia is experienced in all aspects of cosmetic surgery and uses the latest and best techniques, these from one of London’s best equipped private hospitals.
The process actually begins a stage earlier with a thorough consultation, this is a step of vital importance in all forms of surgery.
As a patient you will likely only know that there is a condition or concern you want treated, you will not know the names of the procedures or the techniques any surgeon would use.
The consultation is your chance to talk through your aspirations for surgery and also your journey to this stage, and for the London plastic surgeon to listen.
Ms Prousskaia would be able to recommend a plan of best action, this also based on your full medical history.
A second consultation is common, this an opportunity to ask any follow-up questions; it also allows you to make a decision as to whether to proceed free of any pressure.
Ms Prousskaia has no interest in pushing people towards surgeries that are not truly of benefit.
The consultation exists to find that perfect match – helping you find someone who understands your concerns and has the skills to then create the change you seek.
The Benefit of Cosmetic Surgery
Cosmetic surgery should lead to a better you.
It can create the physical change you seek, but also have huge benefits related to self-esteem, confidence and mental health.
Issues relating to our body and appearances can be distressing, a remedy truly life enhancing, impacting work, relationships and all aspects of life.
The results of cosmetic surgery should look natural, producing the change you seek but without the obvious look of work having been done. You will look a great you, but still you.
Ms Prousskaia understands that the appearance of very visible cosmetic surgery can be every bit as upsetting as the issue may have been pre-surgery.
Ms Prousskaia’s Ethos
The skill and experience of any cosmetic surgeon matter greatly, but so too does their ethos. This perhaps is in part why many opt for a leading female plastic surgeon when assessing options in London.
Of her ethos, Ms Prousskaia says:
Experience and skill are of course of vital importance, but so too is the surgeon’s ethos and their manner with patients.
You have to feel confident that the surgeon you entrust understands you, why you are seeking surgery and can empathise.
After all, cosmetic surgery is often about so much more than the purely aesthetic. Successful surgery can boost confidence and self esteem, an issue that may have been a cause for concern for years or decades can be rectified.
This can be as true for breast reconstruction as it is for a procedure such as ear pinning.
It is truly wonderful to see the impact in terms of confidence and sense of self.
It is perhaps this level of empathy that persuades many to specifically seek a female cosmetic surgeon. In some instances, they can just understand the impact of a condition or concern better than may be the case for a male counterpart.
Of her ethos, Ms Prousskaia says.
“The one thing that matters most to me when I am with a patient is empathy.
It is only when you are able to identify and understand your patient’s problems that you can begin to help resolve them satisfactorily. A good surgical outcome is not the only thing that matters. Everything that you do and say to a patient has to come from your heart.
I consider myself very lucky to be able to share my passion for what I do and hopefully bring a bit more happiness into my patients’ lives.”
