Elizaveta Maximová at ALTOS clinic

I was recommended to ALTOS clinic by friends, and I must say that I have been extremely satisfied here for half a year. Thanks to the kind and accommodating doctors and nurses, I feel really very comfortable and warmly welcomed!

What is your life motto? I am fond of the saying by Oprah Winfrey: “Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.”

What was your first experience with ALTOS clinic? I was recommended to ALTOS clinic by friends, and I must say that I have been extremely satisfied here for half a year. Thanks to the kind and accommodating doctors and nurses, I feel really very comfortable and warmly welcomed!

How much time do you dedicate to self-care? It all depends on my work commitments, but my skin has clearly shown me that everything I (don’t) give it will eventually “return” to me. I love trying new things and products, which is why my bathroom looks like a cosmetics store exploded. Once in a while, I take a really long hot bath with lots of oils, scrubs, etc.

Your work pace is quite high; what brings you the most joy in your work? I enjoy discovering and exploring new things, people, stories, and fates. I love being fully immersed in a particular role or project, and with that enthusiasm and drive, I forget to eat and sleep. I feel happy when I’m working on something that deeply touches me and I have the chance to explore it with equally passionate colleagues.

Aesthetic medicine is a relatively vast field; what is your opinion on this topic? I am just getting acquainted with aesthetic medicine; at my age, I don’t feel the need to change or “restore” anything, but the possibilities are amazing. However, nothing should be overdone, and I think it depends a lot on the reasonableness and sound judgment of not just the patient but especially the doctor.

What treatments have you tried with us, and what would you recommend to other clients? I tried IPL laser treatment for problematic skin, and I was really extremely satisfied with the results! I also really enjoyed the massages at the clinic and can recommend the cosmetics as well!

Do you find time for your hobbies? Can you describe them to us? Recently, I have been traveling and going on trips quite a lot; I often go to the theater and the cinema. I really enjoy reading (I’m currently reading a book by Josef Formánek called “Two Words as a Key” and I’m looking forward to his “Smiles of Sad Men”). I have wanted to enroll in painting or pottery classes for a year now because I miss “manual” work, but I keep postponing it due to work obligations. Maybe someday!

How do you maintain your slim figure? I am a big food lover, so the word “diet” makes me uneasy. The most important (and favorite!) meal for me is a hearty breakfast that fuels me for the entire day, which helps me avoid feeling very hungry throughout the day. While studying at DAMU, we had five training sessions a week, which kept us in great shape. Currently, I walk a lot and swim.

How do you recharge your energy? Sleep, sleep, sleep.

What are your future work plans? Currently, I’m shooting two projects and preparing for a theater premiere in September. The next season will be really demanding and interesting for me, but until I’m on set or sitting at the first read-through, I prefer not to talk too much about anything in advance.

What brings you the most joy in life? My family and loved ones. And beautiful, interesting work with people from whom I can learn as much as possible.
