Gentle curves over well-defined arms that offer elegance and strength. Arms are a statement of movement and an endearing presence
Age or even extreme weight loss can be responsible for the skin on the arms becoming wrinkled and hanging down unattractively.
In some cases, simple liposuction is not enough. The skin is not tight enough to fit the shape of the arm again. Here the excess tissue must be surgically removed.
The incision is made on the inside of the upper arm. The scar, straight or zigzag, fades after some time and is then hardly visible.
Facts:
Clinic stay: 1-2 days
Treatment | surgery duration: approx. 2 hours
Type of anaesthesia: General anaesthesia
Fit for socialising: after approx. 2 weeks

A healthy, low-calorie diet and sufficient exercise are the best ways to effectively reduce obesity.
However, many fat deposits, such as those on the cheeks, upper arms, abdomen, buttocks and thighs, can't be combated even with a consistent healthy lifestyle.
The Rosengasse Clinic performs liposuction using a special procedure developed by Prof. Hofmann. A water-salt-based solution is injected into the areas to be treated.
This reduces the density of the tissue and the fat cells swell. The softened fat cells are then destroyed and suctioned out under vacuum.
The damage to the connective tissue is significantly reduced with this method, so that there is hardly any swelling or bruising, and the healing process is also accelerated.
Facts:
Hospital stay: possibly 1 day
Treatment | OP duration: depending on the suction area
Type of anaesthesia: local anaesthesia, general anaesthesia
Fit for society: after a few days

Sweating during physical exertion, sports and heat is normal. It regulates the skin temperature and prevents the skin from drying out.
In some people, however, the normal regulation mechanism is disturbed, i.e. they sweat excessively without physical or psychological stress. This pathological excessive sweating is called "hyperhidrosis".
Constantly recurring sweat stains with odour formation cause an increasingly high level of suffering when the usual means such as body hygiene and deodorant and frequent changes of clothes fail.
The armpits are most frequently affected. There are now different treatment methods for this:
Facts:
Hospital stay: not applicable
Treatment | OP duration: with Botox and laser treatment approx. 20 - 30 min, with suction approx. 1 hr.
Type of anaesthesia: Botox and laser treatment usually without anaesthesia, suction under local or short anaesthesia
Able to socialise: immediately, physical strain after suction limited for a few days
