Bespoke work, never mass production

Where does the best possible result lie in aesthetic medicine?

It is a narrow ridge between too much and too little. We want a firm neck, but not to look lifted. We want to look younger without giving up our expression. We want to look fresher, but not different. The best possible result is a pinpoint landing.

Behind a natural result lie years of experience, the highest degree of precision and a passion for the profession all at once. Total concentration on the moment, respect for the task and responsiveness to individual wishes. Bespoke work, never mass production — that is what we stand for.

A private clinic built entirely around face and neck lifts.

This private clinic, specialising in aesthetic medicine, offers plastic surgery at the highest international level. Assoc. Prof. Dr Rafic Kuzbari has specialised in face and neck lifts. The infrastructure is adapted to that specialisation: nine state-of-the-art treatment rooms, three operating theatres equipped to the latest standards of medical technology and a large recovery room with the most modern monitoring equipment.

Patients can stay overnight in luxuriously furnished patient rooms. Every step of the treatment — from the consultation through the procedure to the follow-up examination — takes place under one familiar roof.

Operating theatre at the Kuzbari Centre
Vienna's most central clinic

In the heart of Vienna's old town.

The private clinic is probably also Vienna's most central hospital. Its premises lie in the heart of Vienna's old town, within the Golden Quarter. Located at Vienna's finest address, the Kuzbari Centre is easy to reach both by public transport and by car — and offers, through hidden exits, discretion after procedures where desired.

Golden Quarter Vienna — location of the Kuzbari Centre
High-calibre medicine paired with the ambience of a luxury hotel

Architecture by Francesco Lopez. Catering from the Park Hyatt.

The Kuzbari Centre combines high-calibre medicine with the flair of a luxury hotel. On entering the clinic, the design by Italian star architect Francesco Lopez catches the eye — with his team he has furnished, among others, villas for Dolce & Gabbana and Valentino. All rooms follow a harmoniously coordinated colour code — simple, modern, elegant.

Patients staying overnight at the Kuzbari Centre also enjoy catering from the neighbouring Park Hyatt Vienna, freshly prepared — for instance king prawns from the lava stone grill or sea bass in lemon thyme. Despite the luxury flair, prices remain unchanged.

Deep plane facelift with
Assoc. Prof. Dr Kuzbari

Host Victoria Ainedter talks with Assoc. Prof. Dr Kuzbari about the deep plane facelift. A technique that is currently shifting standards in Hollywood, Paris and New York and setting new benchmarks for natural facelift results. But what distinguishes a deep plane facelift from a classic facelift or SMAS facelift? Who is the procedure suitable for, and when do experienced surgeons deliberately advise against it?

An international authority in aesthetic medicine

The Kuzbari Centre for Aesthetic Medicine is the venue for the congress of the world's largest society for aesthetic surgery. Some of the most renowned international plastic surgeons have already been able to work in our unique operating theatres on that occasion — in these videos you can see what they say about our centre.

Why aesthetic medicine is far more than surface

Is aesthetic medicine only superficial? Assoc. Prof. Dr Rafic Kuzbari tells of a severely burned young person who became happier than ever before — and of how much a person changes when you free them from a lifelong blemish. “They suddenly walk differently.”

Competence and integrity

What still stands out about the Kuzbari Centre is the people.

What is special about the Kuzbari Centre for Aesthetic Medicine is not the prime location, the modern medical facilities or the elegant design. What stands out are the people: a carefully assembled, highly specialised team of experienced plastic surgery specialists who, under the leadership of Assoc. Prof. Dr Kuzbari, have devoted themselves heart and soul to the wellbeing and beauty of their patients.

True to the clinic's guiding principle: bespoke work, never mass production.
