Liposuction

Treatment information

  • Using the tumescent technique, a solution is injected into the liposuction area, which ensures painlessness and reduces bleeding. After a short exposure time, the fat cells and the injected solution are suctioned out using fine cannulas. The price of the procedure is calculated according to the number of areas to be treated. The liposuctioned fat can also be used to increase volume in other areas, e.g. on the breast or face (autologous fat transfer/lipofilling). Liposuction is not an option for body weight reduction and is unsuitable for patients with a BMI > 30.
  • The treatment usually takes about 1 to 3 hours
  • Downtime: 2 to 3 days

  • After 6 weeks
  • Final result after approx. 6 months

  • Local anesthesia or general anesthesia

From CHF 4,000

Surgical liposuction is the only effective way to reduce unwanted subcutaneous fat deposits in areas of the body that are resistant to dieting and to positively alter the silhouette to a relevant extent.

Lipofilling (autologous fat transfer)

Treatment information

  • Lipofilling is an elegant and permanent method of augmenting the breast, buttocks or certain areas of the face. With autologous tissue, a subtle, natural augmentation is achieved without the disadvantages of a foreign material. In addition, liposuction sculpts the body shape in the areas where fat is removed. As not all fat cells grow at the target site, 2-3 sessions are usually necessary to achieve the desired result.
  • The treatment usually takes 1 to 3 hours
  • Downtime: 2 to 3 days

  • Final result 7 weeks after the last treatment

  • Local anesthesia or general anesthesia

  • from 4'000 CHF

Fat removal injection (injection lipolysis)

Treatment information

  • The treatment is usually performed on an outpatient basis. Before the injection, the area to be treated is disinfected and the lipolysis solution is injected precisely into the fatty tissue using fine needles. The procedure can be slightly uncomfortable, but the pain is usually well tolerated.

    The results of fat removal injections are not immediately visible and develop over a period of several weeks as the body gradually eliminates the broken down fat. Several sessions are often required to achieve optimal results. After the treatment, the patient should expect slight swelling, redness or bruising, but this usually subsides after a few days.

  • 2 to 3 days of mild pain and moderate to severe swelling, up to 1 month of mild swelling.

  • The treatment usually takes about 45 minutes.

  • The results of fat removal injections are not immediately visible and develop over a period of several weeks as the body gradually eliminates the broken down fat. Several sessions are often required to achieve optimal results. The final result is usually visible 7 weeks after the last session.

  • No anesthesia
  • Pain level: Medium (immediately after treatment)
  • Pain relief through cooling pads

From 400 CHF

Fat injection, also known as injection lipolysis or lipolytic therapy, is a non-surgical method of fat reduction. In this treatment, a special solution is injected into the unwanted fat deposits to destroy the fat cells and encourage the body to break them down.

The fat removal injection is based on the injection of a lipolysis solution, which usually contains phosphatidylcholine (PPC) and deoxycholic acid. These substances break down the fat cells by destabilizing the cell membrane. After the injection, the body initiates a natural process to break down and eliminate the destroyed fat cells.

Fat away injections are often used to treat smaller fat deposits, particularly in areas such as the double chin, hips, abdomen or thighs. It is important to note that fat away injection is most effective on limited fat deposits and is not a substitute for comprehensive weight loss.

Sculptra is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation procedure in which Poly-L-Lactide, a biocompatible stimulating filler, is injected into the skin. This stimulates the body's own production of collagen, making the skin firmer and more elastic.

Sculptra is often used to treat facial wrinkles, volume loss and contouring in the face, body and buttocks, with results that are gradually visible and offer long-lasting improvement.
