Jaana Elberkennou
Specialist in Surgery and Plastic Surgery
My areas of expertise include all types of breast surgeries, such as removal of breast tissue changes, breast reduction and shaping surgeries. Removal of various skin and soft tissue changes, wound care, inguinal and umbilical hernia surgeries, and hemorrhoid surgeries are my daily work at the hospital. I also perform abdominal surgeries (abdominoplasty, diastasis recti repair), upper eyelid surgeries, and minor scar corrections.
In procedures, I follow national treatment guidelines and strive in every way for the best possible outcome by selecting the most suitable procedure with the patient.
Ada Hukki-Aitala
Specialist in Surgery and Plastic Surgery
In plastic surgery, I am fascinated by the versatility of the field. Patients range from babies to elderly, and a plastic surgeon must be able to work on any part of the body. Excellent knowledge of anatomy is essential for a plastic surgeon, and I appreciate the precision of the profession and the fact that in addition to good functional results, an aesthetically beautiful outcome is always the goal.
My special expertise includes facial surgery, breast surgery, and body contouring procedures such as tummy tucks and liposuction. I also have years of experience in injection treatments. I don’t want to create unnatural results; my goal is always that after the procedure, the client looks like the best version of themselves.
As a doctor, I am very approachable and communicative. It’s important to me that the client always understands what we’re doing and why. I listen carefully to the client’s wishes, and we always make decisions in mutual understanding. Welcome!
Jyri Hukki
Specialist in Plastic Surgery, professor
The President of the Republic granted me the title of Professor h.c. in 2016, and I have the pleasure of being a frequently invited lecturer at international plastic surgery conferences. I am also an active member of the international facial and cranial surgery association.
During my career, I have had the opportunity to work extensively in both adult and pediatric plastic surgery. At the Children’s Plastic Surgery Center at Töölö Hospital, HUSUKE, I have treated facial, jaw, and cranial malformations in children and adolescents, and have served as the center’s chief physician for several years. Additionally, I have published over 60 scientific articles in international plastic surgery publications and textbooks. In aesthetic surgery, my specialty areas are facial, breast, and body procedures, where I aim for natural results that support the client’s well-being.
I spend my free time with family and playing with my two wonderful grandchildren. I also enjoy traveling and culture, which bring joy and inspiration to my life. In my work, I consider it important to combine experience, top-level expertise, and a warm approach, so that every client feels they are in professional and reliable hands.
Lotta Jussila
Specialist in Hand Surgery, Doctor of Medicine
I treat wrist and hand injuries and their aftermath, such as fractures, tendon, nerve, and ligament injuries. Additionally, I treat hand conditions requiring surgical care, such as repetitive strain injuries, osteoarthritis, nerve entrapments, and tumors.
The goal of hand surgery is to restore and improve hand function. Surgical treatment is planned individually following treatment guidelines. As a surgeon, I am considerate and careful, and strive to offer each patient the best possible treatment option.
Aino Rönnblad
Specialist in Plastic Surgery, Doctor of Medicine
In addition to knowledge, working in this field also requires an aesthetic eye. I most enjoy performing aesthetic facial procedures and breast shaping. In addition, I also perform body surgery.
The most important thing for me in my work is fulfilling the client’s wishes and finding the best possible outcome, with long-term client relationships being a testament to success. Welcome to my practice!
Anne Saarikko
Docent of Plastic Surgery
I gladly treat patients of all ages, especially children. I completed my medical and specialist training in Helsinki and Turku, and have also sought specialized expertise in microsurgery and pediatric plastic surgery throughout Europe.
I was the first Finnish surgeon to introduce microscope use in cleft surgeries. Additionally, I have researched and developed lymphatic vessel microsurgery.
At Helsinki University Hospital, I treat Finnish cleft patients. In Tallinn, I perform plastic surgery procedures and treat international cleft patients. I also gladly treat other congenital conditions such as children’s nasal abnormalities, protruding ears, post-injury conditions, small fat transfers, and when needed, other plastic surgical procedures.

My family includes my wife, daughter, and two border collies. We live close to nature, which the whole family greatly enjoys. We have, among other things, a vegetable garden where we get our vegetables and herbs. We spend a lot of time in nature with our dogs, who are trained in mushroom hunting, among other things. My hobbies include rock climbing, freeriding, and fishing. Rock climbing in particular is an activity where I spend a lot of free time on the cliffs.
