About the department
The Department of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery at the PAN Clinic Cologne provides the full range of medical services in the areas of its specialization. In addition to modern surgical interventions, the department performs many non-invasive aesthetic procedures and laser procedures. The medical facility keeps pace with the times, so most of the interventions are performed using sparing minimally invasive techniques, after which patients recover as soon as possible. In addition, such operations leave invisible scars. The department is headed by Dr. med. Alexander Stoff.
The most popular procedures in the department include facelift, treatment of wrinkles with Botox, filler and hyaluronic acid injections, otoplasty, blepharoplasty, liposuction, breast augmentation and abdominoplasty. The specialists also have successful experience in the removal of skin tumors (basaliomas, melanomas and others), correction of defects after tumor resection, scar revision and lipedema treatment. The department's surgeons have over 15 years of clinical experience, so patients can count on the highest quality of medical services.
The department's specialists actively use computer modeling systems, which allow them to recreate the new appearance of the patient with the highest accuracy (images in various projections) even at the stage of preparation for the surgical procedure. This approach contributes to the achievement of high quality results and maximum satisfaction of the patient's expectations. It should be noted that the department has state-of-the-art laser equipment, with the help of which doctors carry out many anti-aging procedures. Thus, patients can avoid interventional manipulations and at the same time get the appearance of their dreams. Surgical techniques are often combined with laser procedures.
