Nikolai Serdev: My number one inspiration is beauty

Often people, being mistaken, think that they need to go to the plastic surgeon's office only when they are well over 40. Beauty — the matter is gradual and achievable step by step — of course, only with the right approach with knowledge of the matter.

The president of the National Bulgarian Association of Aesthetic Surgery and Medicine, the director of the Council of the International Academy of Aesthetic Surgery, the author of the method of scarless lifting, spoke about how to prolong youth as much as possible, where to draw inspiration and share professional experience in the beauty field, especially for estet-portal.com skin, honorary professor and director of aesthetic surgery at New Bulgarian University, certified specialist in the field of aesthetic surgery Nikolay Serdev (Bulgaria).

What are the key problems of plasty and complications after surgery?

N.S.: In the 1990s, when communism faded into the background, private institutions, medical practices, clinics, some people just started to appear – especially men – quickly amassed millions of dollars. The new money fortune put forward new demands: the newly minted rich people wanted their wives/girlfriends/mistresses to look better and more beautiful – and sent them en masse to plastic surgery clinics. The worst thing is that these girls were not so many years old: from 18 to 20.

Operating on them, I was afraid to harm my attractive, young appearance, – and tried to do everything in order not to leave scars. From 1990 to 1993 I worked hard on new methods of plastic surgery. I was looking for ways to make plastic surgery less invasive, less painful and less problematic in terms of post-surgery marks.

I was able to find a way to make lifting and other beauty surgeries easy and not as invasive as before. The newly invented method was called – "sewing according to Serdev". What is its essence? It's simple: no incisions, only penetration of the needle through the skin, & nbsp; and the most natural lifting.

Many patients think this way: “When I hit 60, then I will go for plastic surgery. Now the knife and surgeons — definitely not my concern. No, your skin will not agree to this.

No one is born perfect, we also learn to walk and talk. Beauty — the work is painstaking and scientifically accurate. Contour, volumes and proportions can and should be worked on, while achieving the best results.

Modern aesthetic medicine works wonders: there are 21 techniques of surgical rejuvenation for only one facial zone and successfully used, not to mention the methods of drawing the body contour, lifting the chest, abdomen and buttocks.

Among all areas, the face – the most difficult thing for a doctor's work: there are several completely different areas in their structure, each of which needs to find its own approach.

What inspires you in your work, do you have a hobby?

N.S.: My number one inspiration – beauty, and also – happy smiles of patients when they see the result that we have achieved together. When the person who came to me and he, but at the exit from the clinic – in a good way, different people, I understand that I did everything right.

My hobbies? Once upon a time, in my deep youth, I was a professional swimmer. I love water skiing, tennis – from what we can do in summer, and in winter – snowboarding and all the other delights of ski resorts.

Yes, now I'm far from professional athletes, but I also like active pastime.

Inspiration — it is, first of all, agreement with oneself and a change of scenery in order to gain new impressions.

To stock up on strength, every summer I try to go to the sea and have fun there from the bottom of my heart. In winter, I prefer the snow-covered mountain hills to the south coast.

Is there room for love in your life?

N.S.: Yes, of course! Love – this is what we essentially do everything we do. In my life – lots and lots of love: I sincerely love my patients and I am sure that this is mutual. I respect and love my colleagues. Let's not talk about professional now, perhaps?

Personal is always more interesting. So, I have children whom I love endlessly. Love — everywhere, all we need to do – time to look back and notice it. People who have also discovered this secret do not live a day without a smile, and laughter, as you know, prolongs life.
