“Zurich is already young, fresh, dynamic, and in good shape”
Cosmetic surgery is about quality of life. This topic is very appropriate for the convention city of Zurich, which also offers quality of life at the highest level.
Where do the clientele at your Urania clinic in Zurich come from?
Around two-thirds are Swiss; the remaining clients come from all over the world, from Europe to East Asia.
Does cosmetic surgery still have to contend with prejudices in Zurich, the former home of Zwingli?
There is still the perception of excessive aesthetic surgery, and the idea that after an operation people do not look natural any more. However, compared to California or Florida, the expectations and beauty ideals of our patients in Zurich are much less extreme, with the result that such over-the-top results are very rare. The art in aesthetic surgery is to ensure that patients still look fresh and natural after the operation.
Where do you think Zurich could do with a facelift?
Zurich is already very young, fresh, dynamic, and in good shape. The city should retain its naturalness; it really only needs a bit of freshening up every couple of years.
