Medically indicated surgery. With an aesthetic standard.
Five female consultant plastic surgeons treat conditions where symptoms come first: skin tumours, symptomatic breast hypertrophy, tubular breast deformity and lipedema. For privately insured and self-paying patients, with consultations in English.
Five areas, one surgical standard
Every area has its own page – with indication, technique, process, limits and costs.
Skin tumours
Excision with clear margins, or reconstruction only after a tumour has already been removed elsewhere. A confirmed primary diagnosis is required.

We work as a private practice – which means scheduled dates and the freedom to plan every procedure backwards from the result.
- A clear consultant opinion on whether surgery is indicated – including when it is not
- Incisions planned along aesthetic units and relaxed skin tension lines
- A written cost estimate under the German medical fee schedule (GOÄ) before treatment, anaesthesia and follow-up included
- Consultation in English, on site or by video, with a named contact person
- Day-case surgery in a calm private setting close to Cologne city centre
This website provides information on treatment options and does not replace medical advice. Whether a procedure suits you can only be assessed after a personal examination.
