Among specialists and patients, there has been a debate for a long time about what to prefer: plastic aesthetic surgery or modern methods of cosmetology. The ratings of surgeons illustrate that plastic surgery is now extremely popular. However, there are both adherents of the first and second options.
Find out in an exclusive interview on estet-portal.com about the main aspects of the work of a plastic surgeon and cosmetologist at the present stage from the surgeon, BusinessShot speaker, member of the Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons Sergey Derbak.
Approaches to beauty in plastic surgery
S.D.: Global trends in plastic surgery do not stand still, which means that the surgeon must constantly monitor changing trends and offer his patients the most effective and progressive methods of treatment.

Due to constant scientific discoveries, I am always on the hunt for the most innovative knowledge. Nowadays, everyone strives to look beautiful and healthy. I share this desire and am glad that I can contribute to the development of plastic and aesthetic surgery.
Tandem of a cosmetologist and a plastic surgeon
SD: The relationship between the beautician and the plastic surgeon is very good. Because we depend on them, and they depend on us and our work. That's why relationships work well. It is clear that we are comrades-in-arms, it is clear that we learn a lot from them. This is due to the fact that cosmetology and anatomical, so to speak, cosmetology, is developing very strongly.
Key trends in modern correction of the periorbital zone
A plastic surgeon draws a lot of anatomical knowledge from a cosmetologist, especially a technician in contour plastic, because plastic surgeons also do contour plastic, for example, when transplanting fat cells. Therefore, we take a lot from them, they are drawn to us due to the fact that we know maybe a little more about classical anatomy. Therefore, the tandem of a cosmetologist and a plastic surgeon is an absolutely mutually beneficial relationship.

Existence of competition between plastic surgeon and cosmetologist
SD: Actually it's all business if we push medicine aside. Yes, of course, this is money and the main sensitive issue − This is the relationship between plastic surgery and a beautician. But the main − this is how to balance in terms of the patient: you need great wisdom to have a cosmetologist and plastic surgeon who cooperates with a cosmetologist in terms of their practical activities and be able to share the influence on the patient.
The need to supplement the work of a plastic surgeon and a cosmetologist
S.D.: Definitely don't pull the blanket over yourself, because a cosmetologist dermatologist knows much more about the skin than any surgeon, just like a dermatologist does not know what is under the skin or not as good as a surgeon.
It is necessary to separate this: a dermatologist-cosmetologist should deal with skin and skin quality, and a surgeon should deal with what is already deeper.
These are the usual zonal departments of the spheres of influence on the patient of a plastic surgeon and a dermatologist-cosmetologist.
The expediency of synergy between a plastic surgeon and a cosmetologist
S.D.: Definitely worth keeping in touch with. Whenever my patients come to me for a facelift, and I'm mostly a facelift, I tell them that I can help shape the face in the right position, but I can't help you with the quality of the skin.
A personalized approach to the correction of the middle and lower third of the face
In this case, the help of a dermatologist-cosmetologist is needed to improve the actual quality of the skin. Dermatology − this is a separate science, dermatology is separate from plastic surgery and is a more conservative and more developed science, let's be honest. Therefore, of course, the synergy of a plastic surgeon and a cosmetologist is very important to achieve an ideal result, it is difficult for us plastic surgeons alone and cosmetologist-dermatologists definitely come to the rescue to solve all the tasks.
