FaceLift Bristol – World Renowned Surgeon

One of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the UK, facelift surgery is available in Bristol at the superb Bristol Spire private hospital with world-renowned cosmetic surgeon Elena Prousskaia.

Facelifts can help to remedy the natural effects of ageing. As we get older, the face can begin to sag, this often especially noticeable between the ages of 40 and 60.

Skin loses its natural elasticity and as the soft tissue begins to descend, the mid-face can lose volume. Former heart-shaped characteristics of the face become that bit squarer as cheekbones become less angular and lines around the mouth and nose deepen.

The eyes, so prominent a feature on our faces, can also visibly age as brows start to droop and eyelid skin succumbs to gravity.

How Facelifts Work

Facelift surgery helps by tightening the skin and in so doing rejuvenating the face and creating a more youthful look. The appearance should of course still be natural, one that produces superb results but does not have the obvious look of work ‘having been done’.

In the procedure, excess skin would be removed and underlying tissue such as muscle and fascia tightened. The incisions are discretely placed with any resultant minor scarring well hidden.

The facelift treatment would typically involve at least one night spent overnight in the Bristol Spire private hospital – this no hardship given the setting and level of support from nurses. 

Prospective patients often combine a facelift with a neck lift, this removing visible bands in the neck and creating a consistently more youthful look.

The popularity of facelifts means that there are many surgeons in and around Bristol and the south west of England who are able to offer this procedure, many with fine reputations of their own. Why then consider Elena Prousskaia?

Elena’s consultations are always detailed, allowing the patient time to outline their hopes for surgery and Elena to then suggest a best course of action. A second consultation is then common, this ensuring that surgery is only undertaken if there is true harmony between surgeon and patient that it is the best approach and agreement on the results being sought.

It is of course easy to speak of having this patient-led ethos, do the reviews back it up?

In Elena’s case, verified, independent reviews are universally positive – please do take the time to read testimonials via the links below.
