Available at the superb BMI Private Hospital, breast augmentation surgery is among the most popular cosmetic procedures in Bath.
The surgery can be relatively straightforward, certainly it is a common procedure for any experienced cosmetic surgeon.
However, that is not to say that all surgeons are equal, that they all deliver the same results.
Breast augmentation is a procedure that for many women is truly life enhancing. The procedure can create a firmer, larger, more voluminous look and also tackle issues such as breasts that are misshapen or not fully symmetrical.
For many, the procedure also has a huge impact on confidence and self esteem, removing issues relating to negative self image.
In this page we will talk a little about Elena Prousskaia and why she stands apart as a leading cosmetic surgeon in Bath.
Elena is not the only superb surgeon in Bath, however she does have an unmatched CV.
In her 20 year career, Elena has held prestigious Fellowships around the world and specialised in breast surgery – this includes holding one of the UK’s leading Fellowships, the Fellowship in Microsurgical Breast Reconstruction at Guys and St Thomas’.
Other fellowships have been held in Italy, Spain, India, Belgium and at the stunning University Hospital in Tokyo.
Elena has held many international awards and certificates and had research published in leading medical journals – you can read more on the About page.
This level of expertise is not mentioned to be boastful, instead simply to show that for anyone considering great augmentation in Bath Elena is a superb option. Please take the time to thoroughly research any cosmetic surgeon you consider choosing.
The surgeon’s technical skills are of course of great importance, but so too is their ethos. What is their manner with patients, how do they make them feel, how empathetic are they and how do they ensure end results truly match the patient’s intentions.
Elena puts patient satisfaction above everything, as she 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 patients 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.”
It is of course easy to speak of having a superb manner with patients, but what do independent reviews state? For Elena, they are universally positive, five stars across Iwantgreatcare and Google’s own independent reviews. Please take some time to read patient testimonials via the links below.
Key to a superb outcome with a breast augmentation procedure in Bath – or any procedure for that matter – is having a full and open consultation between prospective patient and surgeon.
Elena prides herself in holding detailed consultations where the patient can talk through their hopes for surgery, the results they are hoping for, and Elena can assess the best options available and suggest a plan.
Elena would discuss the ideal breast size and shape with the patient, with careful consideration given to the patient’s overall physique. Elena would explain how the implant will push or lift the breast tissue forward to create that larger, enhanced look.
Second consultations are then common, this giving the patient real time to think and consider their options – this including whether cosmetic surgery is truly for them. Key to a superb outcome is ensuring that only those truly ready for procedures have then undertaken.
The breast augmentation procedure itself is relatively straightforward for a surgeon of Elena’s skill, experience and level of specialism. The precise nature of the process will vary depending on the patient and desired results, but some aspects are common to all procedures – for instance the implant is inserted between the breast tissue and chest muscle or behind the chest wall muscle. The incision through which the implant is inserted will be made either in the crease below the breast, under the arm or around the nipple.
Elena only uses the highest quality implants and has never used PIP implants in her practice.
Recovery time will vary depending on the exact nature of the surgery, but Elena would outline all the key information during consultation – this including cost, length of surgery, recovery time (with full stages, for instance the length of time until you can be partially active / return to work / return to all activities).
