Having gained his specialist degree through training in plastic surgery at central London hospitals, Mr Ion has worked at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital as well as in private practice. Since 2012, he has retired from NHS practice and dedicated his focus to aesthetic surgery and medicine interventions.
Mr Ion has a keen interest in the advancements technology brings to medical and surgical development. As the current president of the British Society of Rhinoplasty Surgeons, he has initiated a training course in technology-assisted rhinoplasty to share knowledge and expertise in this field.
Furthermore, he has developed evaluation and management protocols for facial and neck contouring and rejuvenation, utilising 3D imaging to provide both qualitative and quantitative assessments of the face and neck shape.
There are several factors that best lend themselves to determining whether a person is a good candidate for a facelift. While these factors are by no means conclusive, they are often good indicators:
When we age, gravity ceases to be our friend and our facial soft tissue start to sag, particularly in the lower portion of the face and neck.
Skin looses its elasticity as we age, and in turn starts to sag and show redundancy in the lower face and neck.
I had experienced a botched rhinoplasty back in Dubai and no surgeon in the U.K. was willing to perform a revision rhinoplasty on myself. Dr Ion is the only surgeon who not only agreed to it but also performed an excellent revision rhinoplasty.His revision rhinoplasty was so good that no one can tell if I ever had a rhinoplasty. I am really really happy with my results.
I am so grateful to Mr Ion for performing a very successful secondary procedure following a terrible experience with another surgeon. He is clearly an expert and has a wonderfully reassuring manner. My experiences with the preliminary consultations, actual operation, post-operative aftercare, and subsequent follow-up appointments were truly a gold standard in patient care. Thank you so much to you and your team.
Mr Lucian Ion is a truly skilled and exceptional surgeon who I would recommend in an instant to anyone considering a procedure. His skill set, attention to detail and manner is second to none along with his post-operative care and that of his team. I could not be happier with the results!!
