About the department

The Department of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery, Hand Surgery at the Luisenhospital Aachen offers the widest range of surgical interventions to eliminate deformities and defects of appearance, both for clinical indications and at the patient's request. A special offer of the medical facility is female intimate plastic surgery, which is performed at a specialized center known in the international medical arena. The head physician of the department is the founder of the center and the developer of innovative vulvar flap plastic surgery and the MAK flap technique for nipple-areolar complex repair. Another area of the department's competence is the surgical treatment of hand diseases, deformities, and injuries. Surgical interventions are performed in state-of-the-art operating rooms. Prior to the surgical procedure, individual consultations are held to agree with the patient on the desired outcome. It is also possible to perform computer-assisted modeling of the future appearance, if necessary. Minor surgical interventions are performed on an outpatient basis without a hospital stay. The extensive professional experience of the department's surgeons combined with advanced technical infrastructure form a solid foundation for the provision of high-quality medical service.

The Head Physician of the department is PD Dr. med. Dan mon O Dey. The doctor is a Fellow of the European Board of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (FEBOPRAS), takes an active part in the work of the German Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (DGPRÄC) and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). In addition, the specialist has gained an excellent reputation in female intimate plastic surgery not only in Germany but also throughout the European Union.

The department's plastic aesthetic surgeons specialize in operations to improve the patient's appearance and rejuvenating procedures. Aesthetic plastic surgery is performed without any medical indications, at the patient's request. The most popular aesthetic plastic surgery procedures include face and neck lifts, blepharoplasty, and rhinoplasty. Doctors also offer a wide range of options for body reshaping, including liposuction, lipofilling, breast augmentation, abdominoplasty, etc. The department offers innovative cosmetic procedures for the treatment of wrinkles, including PRP therapy, microneedling, vampire facelift, laser resurfacing, laser scar revision, and injections of Botox, hyaluronic acid, and the patient's own adipose tissues. The department's specialists have vast experience in these procedures, thanks to which they successfully select the optimal technique, taking into account the type of patient's skin and their wishes.

In the field of reconstructive plastic surgery, the department's specialists are particularly interested in breast plastic surgery and vulvovaginal reconstruction. Reconstructive breast surgery is usually required for women who have undergone a mastectomy during cancer treatment. The department's surgeons reconstruct the breast using the patient's autologous tissues, silicone implants, and a combination of these two techniques. They also successfully perform nipple-areolar complex reconstruction using the MAK flap technique, developed by Dr. med. Dan mon O Dey, Head Physician of the department. When performing mammoplasty, surgeons aim to restore the attractive aesthetic appearance of the breast and relieve women of any self-esteem concerns.

The department's reconstructive surgeons brilliantly perform a unique intervention to reconstruct external female genitalia, namely vulvovaginal plastic surgery. This technique was first introduced into clinical practice by the Head Physician of the department. In most cases, this intervention is indicated for patients who have undergone female genital mutilation, resulting in severe injuries and dysfunctions of the genitourinary system. Vulvovaginal plastic surgery is aimed at the restoration of the vulvar form and function, including the reconstruction of the clitoris, labia, and vaginal opening, as well as the elimination of fistulas and perineal tears. After the completion of treatment, patients can expect complete normalization of the function and appearance of the external genitalia.

An equally important focus of the department's specialization is hand surgery. The specialists in this area perform conservative treatment and microsurgical interventions for hand injuries, deformities, neoplasms, infectious lesions, and malformations.
