Experienced plastic surgeon Dr. med. Simone Hellmann helps her patients achieve a youthful, radiant appearance. Patients can not only expect a lot of empathy and time from Dr. Hellmann, but also an honest opinion regarding realistic goals in line with their own anatomy. Not just women turn to her, however, men are increasingly becoming regular patients too, and with good reason. Dr. Hellmann is known for her natural signature. To look young and attractive without it being noticeable that one has had surgery or a minimally invasive treatment – that’s what most of her patients request. “The definition of what looks natural is obviously very subjective,” Dr. Hellmann 38 | Issue 75 | June 2019
explains. “That’s why I always recommend that patients look closely at their plastic surgeon’s own appearance. Because if you, for example, dislike my own personal look – of course I’ve also been treated – then we have a different perception of what looks natural.” In order to achieve a genuinely natural result, one needs extensive knowledge, says Dr. Hellmann. Not just regarding all the different methods and substances, but also when it comes to human anatomy. “As soon as you respect anatomical limits, you can achieve gently improved results. Indeed, you can make everything a little more attractive as long as you honour a patient’s pre-
existing conditions. That’s the secret for a natural look.” In her Cologne-based practice, Dr. Hellmann offers a wide range of plastic surgeries, with a key area being breast surgery. In particular, reductions and breast lifts using the patient’s own tissue are being done more frequently. In the field of facial surgery, Dr. Hellmann is specialised in eyelid surgery. In her practice, she also offers specialised minimally invasive methods to counter the ageing process of the body and face. Dr. Hellmann, who tries to commit to a healthy lifestyle herself, makes a lot of time for her patients and often also discusses what they can improve regarding lifestyle. She approaches her patients in an attentive and honest manner, as equals, and helps them unfold their full individual potential regarding their visual appearance. h-praxis.de
