Everything in one place

Plastic surgery is an important part of modern medicine and can contribute to a better quality of life. Over the years we have built experience across the main areas of plastic surgery. We offer both aesthetic and functional procedures that can help balance body proportions, correct congenital or acquired irregularities and restore a natural appearance after injury, illness or ageing.

For many patients, a procedure is about more than appearance – it is also about comfort and confidence in everyday life.

Everything in one place

Did you know?

Breast augmentation is one of the most common aesthetic surgical procedures in the world – according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), more than 2.3 million were performed in 2023.

Procedures

  • breast augmentation with implants or the patient’s own fat
  • breast lift (can be combined with augmentation)
  • breast reduction
  • nipple correction

We use established implants.

Body contouring – reshaping the figure

Did you know?

Localised fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise can be treated surgically. At the consultation we explain how soon results become visible and what can realistically be expected after liposuction or abdominoplasty.

Procedures

  • Liposuction
  • Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)
  • Body lift (after major weight loss)
  • Upper arm lift (brachioplasty)
  • BBL buttock contouring
It is not about chasing perfection or an “artificial” look, but about bringing the body closer to what each person perceives as more balanced and more their own.

Aesthetic facial surgery for a fresher look

Did you know?

The aim of a facelift is a natural rather than an altered look – what is achievable with your anatomy is assessed at the consultation. Blepharoplasty is a frequently performed procedure, also at our clinic; removing excess, folded skin from the eyelids can also widen the field of vision for many patients.

Procedures

  • face and neck lift
  • eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)
  • nose correction (rhinoplasty)
  • ear correction (otoplasty)
  • chin procedures

An individual approach – honest and straightforward

At every consultation we take the time to listen to you. Dr Matic Fabjan will explain:

  • what makes sense given your wishes and physical characteristics
  • where realistic results can be expected
  • how the procedure would be carried out if you decide on it
  • and when it is better to postpone a procedure or not to have it at all, because the result would not be satisfactory

Frequently asked questions about plastic surgery

How do I know which procedure is right for me?

The first step is a consultation with a specialist. Based on the examination, your wishes and the realistic options, the specialist will recommend the most suitable procedure or combination of treatments.

Does a consultation commit me to surgery?

No. The consultation is for getting a professional opinion, clearing up any doubts and learning about your options. If you decide on a procedure after the consultation, we set a date together. Otherwise, you are free to take more time to think or not to have the procedure.

What about pain during and after surgery?

Procedures are performed under local or general anaesthesia, depending on the procedure. After surgery there may be tenderness, tightness or swelling; we provide pain relief and give you instructions for recovery.

How much does a procedure cost?

The price depends on the type of procedure, its complexity, its duration and the materials used (e.g. implants). The prices on our price list are a guide; at the first consultation the specialist gives you the exact cost. The price covers the work of the surgeons and other staff, quality materials and all administration.

Can I pay in instalments?

Yes, payment in instalments is possible. We offer several ways of paying in instalments. We can tell you more in person or by phone.

When can I return to work or sport after a procedure?

It depends on the type of procedure – after minor outpatient procedures often the next day, after major operations usually after 7 to 14 days. The doctor will give you precise instructions on any restrictions.

How long do the results last?

This depends on the procedure. Results are also affected by ageing, lifestyle and other changes in the body, so no result can be guaranteed to last indefinitely. The doctor explains this at the consultation and gives you instructions on what to do after the operation.

Will there be scars after surgery?

Every operation leaves a scar. We plan incisions so that they are as inconspicuous as possible and, where the procedure allows, placed in natural folds or lines of the body. With proper care, scars usually soften and fade over time.

Can I have several procedures at once?

In many cases, yes. The surgeon decides based on your health, the length of the operation and the risks involved.

What if I have questions or problems after the procedure?

We stay in touch after every procedure. We are available for follow-up examinations, questions and support after discharge. If you have any concerns, you can contact us at any time.

Will it be noticeable that I have had surgery?

We always plan the result around the wishes of the individual. Some people want a very natural change that others hardly notice, while others choose a more visible change. At the consultation the surgeon will explain the options, help you set realistic expectations and plan the procedure with you according to how noticeable a change you want.
