Mirko Dozan
Specialist for Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery
As a specialist in plastic and aesthetic surgery, I see myself as your companion on the path to a new attitude towards life.
My eye for detail and my very personal aesthetic standards enable me to realize the individual wishes of our patients. I attach particular importance to a holistic approach. It is very important to me to advise you right from the start and prepare you in the best possible way. This also includes personal aftercare following an operation.
In addition to treating lipoedema patients, aesthetic surgery is my second focus. The ability to reconstruct and aesthetically shape the human body with my own hands has always fascinated me. Plastic and aesthetic surgery allows me to combine medicine with art every day.

More than just a job: my passion for beauty
I've had a dream job since I was a child: I wanted to be a doctor.
The older I got, the more interested I became in the possibilities of plastic and aesthetic surgery. Using my hands to help people regain their beauty and thus their zest for life still fascinates me today. Every human body is an individual work of art that I love to either restore or take to a higher level.
It fills me with great joy when I succeed in making my patients happy and ready for a new phase in their lives.
I do this with great commitment and even more passion!
