A doctor from Kaliningrad received the Glamor magazine “Women of the Year 2020” award
The “Woman of the Year” award, held by GLAMOR magazine, is one of the most authoritative annual awards in Russia and a landmark international event celebrating achievements in culture and social life. In 2020, the traditional Glamor magazine awards underwent a slight transformation and changed its format; it was held in a limited format, without spectators.
“We abandoned the traditional voting on the site - because personal and professional heroism, work, social activities and even entertainment in this difficult time did not seem to us to be matters suitable for comparison or rating,” says Glamor editor-in-chief Ilyana Erdneeva.
The heroines of the project were women who, despite objective difficulties, injustice and the global pandemic, achieved success in social activities, business, creativity, changed the world around them, inspired, made life more harmonious, safer and filled it with faith in the future and their strength.
One of these heroines, who received a special award established together with the project partners, was the Chief Physician of the network of plastic surgery and cosmetology clinics VIP Clinic, cosmetologist-dermatologist, plastic surgeon Ekaterina Kruglik.
At the beginning of 2022, Ekaterina Kruglik, together with her husband, the head of the VIP Clinic network of plastic surgery and cosmetology clinics, Sergei Kruglik, launched a charity project, which received support.
The goal of the project was to help women who were victims of domestic violence restore their health and appearance, and regain confidence in themselves and their beauty. Ekaterina Kruglik: We once hosted the “Be Healthy” program on Kaliningrad television, where we talked about general medicine, the latest in cosmetology and plastic surgery.
Even then, women who had suffered from domestic violence came to our clinic for help. Of course, we can help patients restore their external beauty - this is a lot of work and a whole range of restoration measures. But not everyone can afford the required number of cosmetic procedures and surgical operations. I have been thinking about a charity project for a long time. Together with plastic surgeon Sergei Viktorovich Kruglik, my husband, we decided to help women who find themselves in difficult situations absolutely free of charge - this is our social responsibility. I am convinced that the law of compensation is strictly observed in the universe: you need to give. If you are successful yourself, why not lend a helping hand to those less fortunate? At the same time, you can help in different ways. The first way is to transfer your professional knowledge, actively train others, and cultivate worthy followers. The second is, to the best of our ability, to provide targeted assistance to those who need it. This especially applies to socially vulnerable groups of people.
Today we collaborate on an ongoing basis with Ksenia Bezuglova’s charitable foundation (the “Everything is Possible” foundation helps young people with disabilities and cerebral palsy), and also provide targeted help to women who have survived domestic violence.
Hitting doesn't mean loving
Domestic violence is a big social problem and a big challenge for each individual victim. We have all heard stories about how, as a result of assault, a woman received quite serious injuries that crossed out her life.
Our charity project in 2022 was implemented jointly with the federal cosmetics chain Letual. Out of almost a hundred questionnaires received, we selected two - they made a very strong impression. These women received free treatment in Moscow: at the Institute of Plastic Surgery on Olkhovka and our clinic.
— The first girl we helped as part of our project, Natalya (the names of the participants have been changed), came to us with a terrible burn: a cigarette butt was thrown at her while she was sleeping, which set her hair on fire. Hair ignites well and burns like lava. It is impossible to put them out quickly. Natalya received serious burns, which resulted not only in scarring of soft tissues, but also in softening of the frontal bone.
This is the so-called osteomalacia: the meninges are covered with a small layer of subcutaneous fat, there are no bones - there is a “hole in the forehead”. In addition, burns, overstretched fabric and premature aging due to stress.
We carried out a very complex operation and took on serious responsibility. After implantation, polishing, restoration of the skin and soft tissues, the woman managed to get rid of the visual defect. We brought the heroine to a very good condition, I know that her life has improved.
— The second girl (let’s call her Svetlana) became a victim not of physical, but of psychological violence - which is no less terrible. She was subject to psychological bullying from her beloved young man. The tyrant lover suppressed Svetlana because of her excess weight and local obesity, mocked, humiliated and insulted her. The girl suffered from chronic depression and even had thoughts of suicide.
At the Institute of Plastic Surgery and Cosmetology in Moscow, we performed several serious body contouring procedures. Sergey Kruglik completely modeled and restored Svetlana’s figure. She lost 25 kilograms and began to look at the world differently.
In both cases, the most important thing is not even that we managed to eliminate aesthetic defects, the main thing is that we managed to increase the self-esteem of our heroines, to prove that each of them is truly beautiful. And this is a big victory for us.

The charity project continues, and in 2022 we are supported by Glamor magazine. The editors will soon begin accepting applications from women who find themselves in difficult life situations and need the help of cosmetologists and plastic surgeons.
Sergei Kruglik and I believe that the personal example of the participants will show girls and women who have suffered from domestic violence that you can change your life, you cannot despair, you need to act and look for ways out of the current situation.
Women's Manifesto of the Year - We know what we are doing; we work hard; we take risks; we make mistakes, but we don’t give up; we are ahead of our time; we do not meet the standards; we doubt ourselves; we believe and love; we change; we get our way; we know how to stand up for ourselves; we get tired, but we get up every time; We are not simple; we are different; we are together and we can do anything.

Ekaterina Kruglik: thread lifting in questions and answers
Women of different ages resort to rejuvenation with threads - from 27 years old to 60. But how to understand all the variety of technologies and methods? Which threads should you prefer? How to choose a specialist and avoid negative consequences?
Ekaterina Kruglik, a cosmetologist, plastic surgeon, and chief physician at the VIP Clinic plastic surgery and cosmetology clinic, will help you understand these issues.
— Ekaterina Vladimirovna, thread lifting is one of the most popular facelift procedures. But which threads are better - absorbable threads, implant threads or mesothreads?
— There are no bad threads; if they are registered and certified, then they are safe. The question is: which threads should be used for each specific patient? The fact is that each type of thread has its own characteristics, indications and contraindications.
All threads can be divided into three categories: biostimulating, reinforcing and lifting.
Biostimulating threads (mesothreads)
are very thin, smooth, are not fixed anywhere and do not stretch anything. This solution is more suitable for tightening the skin and maintaining beauty. By the way, gold threads, known to many, are also biostimulating.
Reinforcing threads
- these threads have notches or teeth, but do not have a fixation point. With their help, a facial frame is created. As it dissolves, the reinforcing thread stimulates tissue production, that is, it is also biostimulating.
Lifting threads.
Such threads have a fixation point - this is the place to which doctors mechanically move the loose facial tissues located below it.
When choosing the type of threads, the main thing is not their ability to dissolve, but whether they are lifting, so that the doctor can move the tissue to where it is needed and wanted.
— There are both positive and negative reviews about thread facelifts on the Internet, what could this be connected with?
— The patient receives a negative experience when expectations from the procedure do not coincide with the result or when the doctor promised an effect that is simply impossible to obtain using the chosen method. If the doctor promised that after mesothreads jowls will go away and wrinkles will straighten out, then he is either too naive a doctor, or he was a little cunning in his attempts to make money. But, fortunately, doctors rarely say that.
— Thread lifting is done only in the clinic or can the procedure be done in a beauty salon?
— Rejuvenation with threads should only be done by a doctor with a higher medical education; the procedure requires experience, anatomical knowledge and understanding of the processes occurring in the skin.
Today you can find offers from salons for thread lifting. Often, specialists who carry out such procedures have received only a diploma from a medical school or just cosmetology courses. But a specialist with secondary medical education can only perform care procedures.
Without knowing the specifics of a thread lift, such “specialists” promise a super result that will tighten the face. And ignorant clients of salons do not receive what was promised and, naturally, get upset. Then there is a mistrust of any anti-aging procedures. The same mesothreads are good only when used according to indications. They give a completely definite expected result, however, one should not attribute superpowers to them.
—
What threads do you prefer to work with?
— At VIP Clinic we use lifting threads made of polyester fiber in a silicone shell - they do not tear and do not lose their supporting properties over time, are completely biocompatible with the human body and eliminate the risk of rejection or negative reactions. Most often these are Spring Thread and Mint Lift threads.
Such threads form a dense frame, which ensures the elasticity of facial tissues, while at the same time maintaining natural facial expressions and articulation, this is exactly what our patients want - to get visible improvements and maintain naturalness.
The procedure for installing lifting threads is one of the most popular in the world. We have been working with this technique for several years and regularly conduct international master classes, teaching cosmetologists the intricacies of lifting technologies.
— What problems does thread lifting help solve? Can it be called an alternative to plastic surgery?
— The procedure allows you to correct age-related changes such as drooping facial contours, shaved cheeks, and get rid of deep wrinkles. Thread lifting is not an alternative, but a procedure that allows you to postpone the need for surgical intervention to a later date.
If a woman is not ready for plastic surgery or it is too early to do surgical lifting, but the patient wants to get a quick visual effect and a result that will last for several years, then I, as a doctor working in the field of both cosmetology and plastic surgery, will definitely recommend thread lifting.
Over 12 years of practice, I have worked with different facelift techniques and I can confidently say that thread rejuvenation, in my opinion, is the most effective solution.
- How long will it take for rehabilitation?
— I advise patients to have a facelift on Thursday-Friday, and on Monday you can go to work. It is not necessary to issue a sick leave certificate for the procedure.
After the procedure, be sure to wear special postoperative masks and follow all doctor’s recommendations.
— Ekaterina, “ VIP
Clinic” was recognized as one of the best clinics in Russia, how did this event affect the work of the clinic?
— We became one of the five laureates of the first all-Russian competition “Parade of Clinics 2016”, held among the leading aesthetic medicine clinics of our country. We strived to achieve a high level of service and service while maintaining affordable prices, and we succeeded. All procedures and operations in the clinic are performed using advanced equipment by highly qualified specialists with many years of practice. Therefore, patients can be confident in the quality of the result! Prices at the clinic are quite affordable, and until May 31, there is a special 20% discount for all patients on the thread lifting procedure!
