Just as important though is her ethos, and this applies to all surgery, including when carrying out a facelift in Croydon. Elena believes that empathy is key, saying:
“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.”
We mention Elena’s experience and success not to boast but to assure you that she is a cosmetic surgeon of the highest standing – given the procedure you are considering it is important to have complete faith in your surgeon.
This starts with the consultation. Elena takes the time to have a lengthy consultation with any prospective patient and then, at a later date a second consultation. This second consultation is important as during the interim period the person considering surgery might have thought of new questions, or new concerns might have arisen.
Only if the person considering a facelift is completely certain it is the right procedure for them will surgery be booked in.
Elena’s credentials might not be in doubt, but what does facelift surgery in Croydon comprise and who is it for?
A facelift helps to rejuvenate the face against the natural signs of ageing that typically occur between the ages of 40 and 60. During these decades, the faces and neck start to sag as the skin loses some elasticity, cheekbones becomes less angular, lines deep and the face begins to turn squarer.
A facelift surgeon such as Elena replaces the signs of ageing with taut skin and a more youthful complexion, complete with a restoration of the natural angularity of the face. However, it takes a truly skilled surgeon to get the results right, to leave the face looking more youthful and rejuvenated but also natural and not with that look of when it is obvious surgery has been undertaken.
To ensure the look is natural after excess skin has been removed and tissue, muscle and fascia tightened the scars will be well hidden, the incisions discreet.
The facelift is often accompanied by a neck lift procedure and potentially eyebrow lifts – this, of course, something to be discussed in consultation with Elena, her experience and skill can ensure you achieve the desired result.
