I had face and neck lift surgery with Mr Russell Bramhall. I can honestly say that all aspects of the process were excellent, and I cannot recommend Russell highly enough. It’s now 6 months on, I am absolutely delighted with the results, and I cannot thank Russell enough for giving me my confidence back.

Background

Russell’s foundation is in complex reconstructive plastic surgery. After qualifying in medicine from the University of Edinburgh in 2005, he trained at a number of the UK’s leading plastic surgery units before completing two breast specialist fellowships: one at The Royal Marsden Hospital, the UK’s foremost cancer centre, and another at St Andrew’s Centre for Burns and Plastic Surgery in Essex. He has also travelled internationally to further his expertise, attending as an international fellow in New York, Melbourne, and Brussels. Russell joined McKeown Medical in 2019, and continues his reconstructive work as an NHS consultant at Glasgow Royal Infirmary, specialising in post-cancer breast reconstruction.
