We are looking for "our" clinic of plastic surgery

No, such a choice would not happen according to the principle: "I like this face more." A high-level professional who works in a serious clinic for plastic surgery is subject to, if not all, very much. Another important thing here is the complete mutual understanding between the doctor and the patient. For example, a person comes to the doctor and says: "I want a nose, like Alain Delon, cheekbones - like Belmondo, and the cut of eyes - like Richard Gere." The surgeon also objectively evaluates all the patient's data, including age, and comes to the conclusion that his face, alas, even "Philip Kirkorov" will not "pull." With all the desire of the doctor and taking into account the use of the most modern technologies of plastic surgery. Or "pull", but then the person himself will not be happy with the results.

This is the beginning of the future operation: analyzes, research of a status of an integument of a face is all is clear, without it anywhere. But the main thing is full contact of the doctor with the patient and understanding of the common goal. If the doctor implicitly takes everything, even the most daring of your "want", be on your guard: or you are lucky, and you met with the Lord God himself, or the results of the operation may be, to put it mildly, quite different than you expected.

The locker is something like "gay, Slavs"

What else you need to know by choosing your "own" clinicplastic surgery and "his" doctor? We will listen to the advice of a professional - the chief physician of the plastic surgery clinic "Beauty Doctor", a candidate of medical sciences, plastic surgeon Alexander Dudnik.

- You know, I just would not want thiswas perceived as an attempt to "propiate" our clinic, - he immediately warns. - Now and then you read in glossy magazines: "We are the best!" But, firstly, true professionals, respecting their colleagues, will never advertise themselves so shamelessly, on the contrary - cooperation and exchange of experience in the interests of the patient only welcome. And, secondly, we ourselves - the staff of our clinic - and those who received help from us know what the "Beauty Doctor" really stands for and the quality of our work.

- Well, so where to start choosing a clinic for those,who decided on a plastic surgery? By the way, there are more and more such people. According to some sources, today almost a quarter of the population of Russia is ready for such a procedure.

- Yes, there are a lot of people who want to regain their youth. Demand, as is known, gives rise to a proposal. And here I would like to note one very positive trend. The attitude towards the practical application of plastic surgery in the country becomes stricter every year, the requirements to the qualifications of the employees have become much tougher, the Nomenclature of Medical Services has been created, and the sanitary standards have changed. All this inevitably leads to a significant decrease in the number of so-called "pirate" clinics.

- Explain, please, the term - somehow even scary sounds ...

- Not so long ago the clinic of plastic surgerycould almost open any doctor in his apartment. Or in the beauty salon. But the situation is changing. Today, all pass mandatory inspection of Rospotrebnadzor and receive the necessary sanitary and epidemiological conclusion. However, even the availability of an appropriate license is not yet a guarantee of the quality of the operations performed. For example, you can see the advertising of a clinic (according to the same principle - "we are the most-most"), you come there and are amazed at the exquisite riches of office furniture, glittering everywhere around the tile ...

"Excuse me, Alexander Pavlovich, but what about furniture?"

"It's hard for an ignorant person to believe in it, but,strangely enough, furniture is also "at what." And even building materials, with which the room is finished. Respecting themselves and the health of their patients, the clinic necessarily takes this into account and has special sanitary and hygienic certificates. After all, in order to prevent nosocomial infection, the operating unit and wards are constantly treated with disinfectants. Therefore, to the quality of paint, flooring, materials from which furniture is made, very strict requirements are made. Here is an extract from the sanitary rules: "The external and internal surfaces of medical furniture should be smooth and made of materials resistant to the effects of detergents and disinfectants." I'm not talking about the medical equipment used, which should not only be "promoted" in promotional booklets, but, above all, safe for patients. All used medical equipment must have registration certificates of Roszdravnadzor.

A full-time surgeon - or an "incoming doctor"?

Yes ... It turns out that it's not an easy task to choosethe correct clinic of plastic surgery. And "your" doctor who will do you an operation. By the way, as Alexander Dudnik told, such a doctor may not necessarily be listed in the staff of your chosen clinic.

"Alas, it's quite common practice to invite a surgeon working at another location" for an operation, "explains Alexander Pavlovich.

- This is bad?

- Let's just say: it is not lethal, but undesirable. I will not say that such a specialist must necessarily have a diploma of education and knowledge of general surgery, know the harmonic laws of the proportions of the face and body, microsurgical techniques, laser technology - this, I think, is understandable. But another thing is equally important: the sense of elbow in the team. As to the practice of working in our clinic, I know how important it is that during the operation, permanent, regular anesthesiologist-resuscitator, surgical operation sisters, anesthetic sisters work alongside a plastic surgeon. It is necessary that both the ward and procedural nurses should have their own. Under such conditions, everyone clearly knows his place and bears his share of responsibility for the patient's health and the outcome of the operation. If one of the staff works by the principle: "came-worked-left", then it is more difficult to find the "extreme".

- It's not quite clear: is a permanent team a desirable or compulsory condition?

- Since 2013 the procedure for rendering assistance in plastic surgery came into force in Russia. There is clearly prescribed composition - the mandatory minimum of the operating team. I spoke about this composition above.

The deal is more valuable then money

And also the head doctor of "Beauty Doctor" Alexander Dudnikfocuses on one very significant point: it is a question of documenting the relationship between the clinic and the patient. This in no way will reduce the level of confidence of both sides, but once again serves as a confirmation of the high level of responsibility of the medical team for the results of its work. It looks like the conclusion of an official marriage in the registry office: do you agree to take in plastic surgeons? ..

A contract for the provision of medicalservices, the patient's written consent to the operation is formalized, he gives a separate consent for anesthesia. At the request of the patient, he must be provided with copies of the clinic license, certificates of specialists, he has every right to be informed about the preparations and implants that will be used during the operation - as well as with documentary evidence.

Yes, and do not forget about the discharge epicrisis: there you will find the necessary recommendations in the postoperative period.

Well, it seems that's all. Now you are ready to choose your "own" clinic of plastic surgery and "your" doctor!
