About the Department of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery, Hand Surgery at Park-Clinic Weissensee Berlin

The Department of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery, Hand Surgery at the Park-Clinic Weissensee Berlin offers the full range of surgical interventions in the areas of its specialization. The department's experienced surgeons specialize in reconstructive interventions for treating skin and soft tissue defects after the removal of tumors, burns, injuries, or congenital pathologies, as well as in performing aesthetic operations to improve a person's appearance without any medical indications. In addition, the scope of the department's tasks includes the surgical treatment of all diseases and injuries of the hand, as well as secondary medical care for burns. The department's surgeons widely use the latest surgical techniques that provide excellent aesthetic results, while most interventions are performed on an outpatient basis. During the consultations, the department's plastic surgeons carefully listen to a patient's wishes and always strive to find the best solution considering the particular clinical case. The department is headed by Dr. med. Viola Moser, who has over 27 years of successful clinical experience.

The modern world dictates many new trends in a person's appearance, and many people, especially women, follow these standards of beauty by resorting to the services of aesthetic plastic surgeons. The department's surgeons regularly perform face and neck lift, nose, ear, and chin reshaping surgery, breast augmentation and lift, as well as abdominoplasty, liposuction, buttock lift, and augmentation. Before any of the above operations, a set of diagnostic tests is carried out to eliminate any risks to the patient's health. A plastic surgeon also asks the patient in detail about his wishes regarding the results of the upcoming operation. Computer modeling can be used for a preliminary assessment of the new appearance whenever required.

The specialists in reconstructive plastic surgery are responsible for restoring the shape and function of the affected areas of the body after severe injuries, burns, removal of malignant tumors, bedsores and ulcers on the legs. The department has special competence in the field of breast reconstruction after a radical mastectomy. During the surgical interventions, all modern surgical techniques are used, including skin grafting, flap reconstruction, and the placement of expanders. The department's surgeons successfully cope with clinical tasks of any complexity while providing patients with excellent aesthetic and functional outcomes.

The department's therapeutic offer is complemented by the treatment of hand diseases. The specialists have unique competencies in treating compression syndromes (carpal and cubital tunnel syndrome), Dupuytren's contracture, tendovaginitis, tumor-like masses (ganglion), tendon pathologies, rheumatic lesions of the hand joints, injuries and malformations of the hand (for example, syndactyly, polydactyly).
