8 reasons for your facelift at the Kuzbari Centre

Why patients come to us from all over the world.

It is not a single factor that makes the difference — it is the combination. Decades of specialisation, the highest safety standards, state-of-the-art technology, a clinic in the heart of Vienna and surgeons who strive for perfection in every single procedure and take the time that requires.

1 · Experience and competence

International expertise in facelift surgery.

Assoc. Prof. Dr Rafic Kuzbari is president of the Austrian Society for Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery and an internationally recognised expert in deep plane facelifts. He trains other plastic surgeons, teaches internationally and is a member of the closed circles Alpine Workshop and EURAPS.

Plastic surgeons from all over the world visit our clinic continuously to learn new techniques and broaden their surgical knowledge.

2 · Maximum safety

Patient safety has the highest priority.

A competent, well-rehearsed team of surgeons, anaesthetists and nursing staff, state-of-the-art medical technology and seamless care make your operation as safe as medically possible.

In addition, many small details ensure the highest possible safety: during what is usually a longer operation you wear special compression stockings, which stimulate circulation in the legs and thereby reduce the risk of thrombosis. For a beautiful neck result we use modern devices such as Ligasure and Trisect, which seal blood and lymph vessels reliably — markedly reducing the risk of bleeding and fluid accumulation.

3 · Specialist field: facial surgery

Specialising exclusively in the face for years.

Assoc. Prof. Dr Kuzbari has specialised exclusively in facial surgery for many years. This deep focus is decisive precisely in facelift surgery — where a few millimetres determine the overall picture and preserving individual expression is not negotiable.

Instead of standardised approaches, he adapts every procedure individually to the anatomy and the wishes of his patients.

4 · Satisfied patients

Delighted. Reviewed. From all over the world.

Numerous delighted patients from Austria and abroad trust Dr Kuzbari when it comes to natural, harmonious rejuvenation. Excellent reviews on platforms such as DocFinder and Doctify reflect what our patients experience every day: exceptional professional competence combined with empathetic care.

„Dr Kuzbari was recommended to me from a friend. The entire experience was very professional and friendly. The procedures were explained in detail and no questions were left unanswered. I am very satisfied with the results and can recommend Kuzbari Zentrum highly.“

5 · Everything under one roof

From consultation to aftercare — everything under one roof.

Our state-of-the-art operating theatres are optimally equipped for aesthetic procedures. After surgery we look after you around the clock in our officially licensed and ISO-certified clinic.

From the consultation through the operation to aftercare — everything takes place in one location. You do not move between buildings, doctors or systems.

6 · Tailor-made for you

Exceptionally generous time for your wishes.

In the detailed consultation, Assoc. Prof. Dr Rafic Kuzbari takes exceptionally generous time to understand your wishes and to analyse the age-related changes of your face precisely. Together with you he develops an individual operation plan tailored to your needs.

With a pronounced sense of aesthetics and a deep understanding of facial anatomy, results emerge that are beautiful and natural at the same time.

7 · An international authority

Internationally connected, locally rooted.

The Kuzbari Centre is internationally recognised. Plastic surgeons from all over the world visit our clinic continuously to learn new techniques and broaden their surgical knowledge.

Dr Kuzbari has more than 30 years of professional experience. Having studied in Vienna, he was interim head of the department of plastic surgery at Klinik Ottakring (formerly Wilhelminenspital) and is a member of the Alpine Workshop, a closed circle of leading European plastic surgeons, as well as of EURAPS, one of the most scientifically renowned plastic surgery societies.

8 · A centre in the heart of Europe

In the middle of the Golden Quarter.

Our private clinic is Vienna's most central hospital. Its premises lie in the heart of Vienna's old town, within the Golden Quarter. An exceptional location for a state-of-the-art clinic.

Patients from Austria and abroad reach us comfortably — and find everything Vienna has to offer just around the corner: from Stephansplatz to the Hofburg.

1,800 m² dedicated to aesthetic medicine

A clinic built for the highest standards.

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 lifting.

The infrastructure is adapted to that specialisation: the clinic has nine state-of-the-art, elegantly furnished treatment rooms and three operating theatres equipped to the latest standards of medical technology. A large recovery room with the most modern monitoring equipment provides safety after procedures too. You can stay overnight in a comfortably furnished inpatient ward with luxurious patient rooms.

In this way every step of the treatment — from the first consultation through the procedure to the final follow-up examination — takes place under one familiar roof. Surgery dates therefore remain maximally flexible.
