In reality, that gender qualifier is not needed. Elena Prousskaia is one of the leading plastic surgeons in Harley Street, London or anywhere in the UK regardless of gender. However, she does bring a female perspective to her expertise, for instance being truly understanding and empathetic with concerns around breast surgery and other sensitive issues. She is recognised among expert surgeons and aesthetic plastic surgeons in London.
In this page, we will outline some of Ms Prousskaia’s credentials as a cosmetic surgeon and also the plastic surgery services she is able to offer in London.
It is always essential that you feel confident any plastic surgeon can deliver the results you seek.
Elena Prousskaia’s CV stands comparison with any surgeon’s.
She has carried out cosmetic surgery for approaching 20 years, this after completing eight years training in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
As Consultant Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at Southmead Hospital she dedicated years to complex microsurgical reconstruction and also more general plastic surgery.
She has specialised in breast surgery and reconstruction, including helping those who have suffered breast cancer to rebuild their body and confidence.
Her list of Fellowships held is stunning, including one at London’s prestigious Guys and St Thomas’ Hospital – this in microsurgical breast reconstruction and Breast Oncoplastic Surgery.
Other fellowships have included Barcelona, Milan, India, Belgium and the University Hospital in Tokyo – here experiencing the latest techniques and developments in plastic surgery, and demonstrating her commitment to staying updated with the latest research in plastic and cosmetic surgery.

Her achievements and level of qualifications are not listed to boast, instead to show that Ms Prousskaia has the level of experience and expertise you would expect when looking for the most suitable female surgeon in London.
Please take the time to fully research any surgeon you consider.
Her independent reviews are also universally positive.
As a leading cosmetic surgery clinic and London clinic, Ms Prousskaia offers expert plastic surgery treatments in London and East Grinstead, with areas of specialism and special interest including, but not limited to:
Our cosmetic surgery clinic offers a comprehensive range of cosmetic surgery procedures and cosmetic surgical procedures, with a strong commitment to high-quality patient care throughout your journey.
Experience and skill are of course of vital importance, but so too is the surgeon’s ethos and 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, plastic 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. Many patients find that these procedures help them achieve greater body confidence, which can lead to increased happiness and an improved quality of life.
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 plastic 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.”
Ms Prousskaia is skilled in a huge range of cosmetic procedures and uses the latest and best techniques to deliver the best results.
However, the process begins a stage earlier with a detailed consultation, this a step of vital importance.
As a prospective patient you may not be an expert in the techniques or even know the fancy technical term for the condition to be treated.
You may instead simply know that there is a cause for concern you wish to see treated.
It may be to correct breast asymmetry, or it may be for mole removal, or perhaps to address signs of ageing on the face and neck.
Whatever the issue, the process always begins with that consultation, this your chance to talk and Elena to listen. Prospective patients are invited to book a free consultation, making it easy to start your cosmetic surgery journey without any financial commitment.
She will then factor in your full medical history and suggest a plan of best action and why this course of action is recommended.
It is then usual to have a second consultation, this allows time so you can consider the information from the first consultation and to take time to come to an informed decision.
As with any leading surgeon, 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.
It should help to create the physical change you seek, whether this is helping to remedy a cause for concern, address a sign of ageing, or perhaps create the physical change that you have always sought.
However, it should also look natural. The person who has surgery should look like themselves, only a great version of themselves.
This is where surgeon skill is so vital – avoiding the clear look of ‘work having been done’ yet still making that profound change both to appearance and confidence.
Ms Prousskaia understands that the appearance of very visible plastic surgery can be every bit as upsetting as the issue may have been pre-surgery.
Elena Prousskaia performs plastic surgery procedures in London from the world-class London Welbeck Hospital.
The Welbeck is a private hospital situated in the heart of London, in the Marylebone region and closer to numerous public transport links including Oxford Circus, Bond Street and Regent’s Park underground stations.
For certain procedures, such as breast augmentation, an overnight stay at the hospital may be offered based on your preferences or medical needs, although most patients return home the same day.
A dedicated team of nurses, including a nurse-led care team, provides comprehensive support before, during, and after your procedure to ensure your comfort, safety, and a smooth recovery.
The full postcode is W1G 8EN.
There are many plastic surgeons in London and a fair percentage of these are female. You are not short of choice.
You should not consider Ms Prousskaia because she is the one of the few, instead she is one of many. However, her reputation shows she is perhaps the best.
This, though, does not come at extra cost – her prices are competitive compared to any other top, London surgeon. Ms. Prousskaia also provides comprehensive quotes at consultation so you can easily compare any price quoted against what others may charge.

London, the capital city of England, is renowned for medical expertise.
Harley Street, located in Marylebone and named after former Lord Mayor Thomas Harley, is perhaps the most famous location relating to the medical profession in the UK.
Many leading practitioners across a wide range of medical specialisms have clinics in Harley Street.
Location wise, it is highly accessible, with close proximity to Regent’s Park, Oxford Circus and Great Portland Street tube stations and also mainline stations including Euston and Kings Cross.
As you would expect of a street of such influence it has featured in many cultural works and had many famous residents.
Agatha Christie regularly used Harley Street as a locations it features in, among other stories, And Then There Were None, Crooked House and Death on the Clouds.
Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility has many chapters based in London and specifically Harley Street.
Real life residents have included artist JMW Turner, Labour MP Harriet Harman and also Lionel Logue, the speech therapist who helped King George VI and is represented in the King’s Speech.
Many of Elena’s tuberous breast patients have felt self-conscious about the issue since puberty, which is when this issue manifests. If you are concerned that your breasts are either not developing normally, or have never reached their shape, we suggest you book a confidential discussion with Elena to discuss whether this surgery might be appropriate for you.
If any of the following characteristics feel true, then it is likely this is the correct surgical procedure. Of course, this can be confirmed following a detailed discussion with Elena:
• Elongated or coned Breasts
• Narrower breast base
• The fold beneath your breast (inframammary crease) is high
• Prominent enlarged areola.
While complications with surgery are infrequent, no surgical procedure is without risks. Among the possible complications are scars, infection, haematoma, implant displacement, breast asymmetry, implant rupture and capsular contracture. Common post-operative symptoms include pain, discomfort, and swelling, which are usually temporary and can be managed with medication and proper care. Elena will provide you with further information with the risks and provide you with a detailed consent form during your consultations. This will help you to minimise the risks.
The Elena Prousskaia Clinic prides itself on the quality of its aftercare so we’ll make absolutely sure you know what to expect, and how much rest is needed. We’ll give you specific instructions that may include how to care for your breasts following surgery, medications to apply or take orally to aid healing and reduce the risk of infection, and when to follow-up with Elena. Elena will also advise you on a specialised support garment bra which will also help with your recovery and provide support to your chest. All our surgeons are committed to high standards of care throughout your aftercare process.
Tuberous breast correction ensures that patient gains missing volume especially in the lower pole of the breasts, which tend to be short of skin and breast tissue. Once the lower pole of the breast becomes rounder and fuller a bra would normally fit well.
The operation is carried out under general anaesthetic. The length of surgery is between 2-3 hours however this is dependent on the complexity of surgery. The placement of scars will depend on your preference and the recommendation. The missing volume is restored with breast implants after breast remodelling is completed, normally as part of the same procedure. Implants can be placed either in front of the pectoral muscle (subfascial) or behind it (dual-plane), and the choice of muscle placement can affect the final result and recovery.
Areola reduction can be performed through periareolar approach, with a scar around the nipple areola complex. The Implant often can be introduced through the scar using a Keller funnel resulting in minimal scaring. Very rarely in severe grade of tuberosity a two stage surgery may be needed. In these rare cases, tissue expanders would be placed first to stretch the tissue and at the second stage it would be replaced with implants.

Normally, after a one-night stay, you would go home once the drains are removed. You may feel tightness of your breasts after this surgery. This is normal and it will improve gradually. You should avoid all sport activities, housework such as hovering, driving, dog walking for at least 4-6 weeks following surgery and any weight lifting or strenuous activities for up to 8-12 months following the surgery.
It is important to avoid heavy lifting during your recovery to prevent complications and support proper healing of your chest. Breast augmentation recovery typically involves some pain, discomfort, and swelling, which usually subside within a few weeks. The visibility of your scars will depend on the technique used and on the biological response of your body to surgery and healing.
Generally the scars after this type of surgery are almost invisible by the end of the year. Patients can benefit from taking four weeks off work, and after you have seen Ms Prousskaia for your four weeks follow up you can discuss beginning a gym routine focused on lower body strength. Attending your follow up appointments is essential for monitoring your healing and ensuring the best possible outcome.
The shape of implants can be round or anatomical (teardrop). Both can provide an excellent result. The outer shell and the filling may vary depending on the manufacturer. Miss Prousskaia has never used PIP implants in her practice and she will offer you high quality implants from the best manufacturers. You will discuss with Miss Prousskaia which specific shape and size of implant would give you the optimal result.
You should know that in the European Union (EU) 95% of implants used for breast augmentation are made of silicone gel and only 5% contains other type of fillings such as saline. Mentor Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implants are devices with shells constructed from silicone elastomer.
The shell is filled with MemoryGel®, Mentor’s proprietary formulation of silicone gel. Saline implants are also available and typically weigh more than silicone implants, but the difference in weight does not usually affect comfort or appearance.
Elena prides herself on taking the time to truly understand a patient’s aims and discussing what result will work best given the patient’s body shape and size. Although good results are expected, the body is not symmetric and almost everyone has some degree of unevenness, which may not be recognised in advance. The more realistic your expectations as to results, the better your results will be in your eye.
You will have at least two consultations with Elena where she ensures that she meets your expectations and she will always try to achieve your desired results. Factors such as pregnancy and breastfeeding can affect breast shape and size over time, which may influence your long-term results.
Elena does not operate on patients that regularly smoke or vape. To be considered for this procedure you must refrain from smoking or vaping for 3 months before and after your surgery.
The cost includes the hospital, surgeon and anaesthetic fees. It also covers all post-operative visits. The initial consultation fee will be invoiced separately. The prices apply only at the time of publication and are subject to changes without notification.
