“The doctor-patient relationship is sacred. It is built on honesty, trust, and genuine care. Every doctor should inspire confidence in their patients—whether addressing serious illnesses, performing aesthetic surgical or non-surgical procedures, or offering skincare treatments to enhance appearance,” says Dr. Villy Rodopoulou.

Dr. Villy Rodopoulou is a renowned plastic surgeon and co-founder of Kosmesis Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Clinic in Athens, Greece. She is a distinguished member of several esteemed organizations, including the European Board of Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, and the International Board of Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery. Her passion for providing natural results and seeing her patients’ happiness motivates her to continually refine her skills and adopt cutting-edge treatments.

  • What inspires you to stay at the forefront of plastic surgery and skincare innovation?

    As a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon with nearly three decades of experience, I’ve been privileged to serve thousands of patients from diverse nationalities, starting my journey in London, the “Mecca” of Aesthetic Surgery.

    I strongly believe in achieving natural results, which earn the trust and satisfaction of my patients. Their happiness and the transformative changes I see in them inspire me to innovate constantly. For example, I developed signature beauty protocols and treatments, such as the Phi Technique for injectable lip augmentation, which received the Best Paper Award at the 2022 American Society of Plastic Surgeons Congress in Boston.

    Additionally, I created my Medical Grade Skincare Line to provide patients with effective, research-backed solutions that maintain and enhance the results of my treatments. These products go beyond surface-level care, working at the dermal level to stimulate collagen and cellular repair.

  • How does plastic surgery differ from other medical specialties?

    Plastic surgery focuses on prevention, repair, and maintenance, helping patients age gracefully while preserving their natural beauty. Unlike many other specialties, our work rarely involves delivering bad news. Instead, we offer hope and confidence by addressing skin concerns, reversing signs of aging, and enhancing overall appearance.

  • What builds trust between you and your patients, and how has social media influenced your practice?

    Trust comes from consistently delivering excellent results and treating each patient with care and understanding. Social media reflects our work—it showcases the experiences and satisfaction of real patients. It’s not just about strategic posts; it’s the genuine, high-quality outcomes that resonate with our audience.

  • How important is the doctor-patient relationship, and what creates loyalty?

    The doctor-patient relationship is central to everything we do. Patients value honesty, trust, and personalized care. Small gestures, such as thoughtful follow-ups or creating a relaxing treatment atmosphere, leave lasting impressions. These moments of care and luxury often lead to long-term loyalty and recommendations.

  • Do doctors need to be good communicators, and should communication training be part of medical education?

    Good communication is essential in every profession, but especially in medicine. At Kosmesis, our team prioritizes kindness and understanding, ensuring patients feel heard and valued. I firmly believe communication skills should be part of medical education, as they enhance patient satisfaction and overall success in the healthcare field.

  • What are your bestselling treatments and skincare products?

    Our top treatments include the Golden Touch Micro-Infusion, which combines mesotherapy and microneedling with plasma therapy for personalized skin rejuvenation.

    From my Signature Skin Care Line, the bestsellers include:

    • Lip Plumper: A highly effective, natural-looking volumizer.
    • Eye Rejuvenation Cream: Anti-wrinkle cream with immediate firming effects.
    • Skin Whitening Treatment: Targets discoloration and balances skin tone.

    These products complement our treatments and provide transformative results, loved by celebrities and high-profile clients alike.

  • Have you seen how prioritizing communication and patient experience impacts medical centers?

    Absolutely. Open communication and positive patient experiences are core values at Kosmesis. This approach fosters patient trust, leading to repeat visits and referrals, which naturally improve profitability. Moreover, happy patients and staff create a positive, thriving workplace environment.
