Buttocks liposuction at Leech Private Clinic in Graz, Austria, provides professional body contouring for patients seeking to remove stubborn fat deposits. This procedure targets the buttocks, hips, and thighs to create a more balanced body shape. The clinic holds EN ISO 9001:2015 accreditation, ensuring high quality standards in a facility known for its personalized specialist system.
The clinic uses a flexible approach to body contouring. Surgeons target specific areas including the buttocks, stomach, calves, and outer thighs, also known as saddlebags. This procedure helps patients with fat distribution disorders that do not respond to diet or exercise. While it is not a treatment for general obesity, it can reshape the lower body effectively. Minor plastic surgery may be performed in the day clinic, allowing patients to go home after one day.
Leech Private Clinic operates under the Belegarzt system, which means patients choose their own specialist. The surgical team includes university professors and highly trained specialists. Univ. Prof. Dr. Stephan Spendel and Univ. Prof. Dr. Michael V. Schintler are both experts in plastic, aesthetic, and reconstructive surgery. They work alongside Dr. Martin Grohmann and Dr. Thomas Rappl to provide tailored surgical plans. These doctors remain available to answer questions even after the patient returns home.
Liposuction is often an aesthetic choice, but it can be a medical necessity. If the procedure treats lipedema, it may count as a medical indication. In these cases, supplementary insurance might reimburse costs after approval from a chief medical officer. For self-paying patients, the clinic provides an individual cost estimate within two working days. A deposit is required before the surgery based on this estimate. The hospital also works with many foreign insurers for direct billing.
The clinic features 44 beds, three operating theatres, and a 24-hour recovery unit for patient safety. On-site diagnostics include CT, X-ray, and endoscopy for convenient pre-operative checks. International patients receive support from a dedicated caregiver throughout their stay. This support includes visa invitation letters and help with airport transfers. After treatment, patients receive a translated medical summary of their findings. The clinic also cooperates with Private Hospital Laßnitzhöhe for physiotherapy and rehabilitation if needed.

Privatklinik Leech, founded in 1973, is a private surgical clinic in the centre of Graz, the capital of Styria in southern Austria. It belongs to SANLAS Holding, a Styrian healthcare group founded in 1980 that today runs twelve health facilities across rehabilitation, care, prevention, acute medicine and surgery. Leech works as a "Belegarzt" clinic: patients are treated by the specialist of their choice from a team of around 100 doctors, who use the clinic's operating theatres, nursing team and infrastructure. With 44 beds in single and double rooms, three operating theatres and a round-the-clock recovery unit, the clinic combines a broad surgical range with the comfort and personal atmosphere of a small private hospital in the heart of the city.
The clinic covers almost every surgical field apart from obstetrics, including:
Dental treatment under general anaesthesia is also available.
Several of the clinic's procedures address cancer, including breast-conserving operations for breast tumours, the treatment of eye tumours, and the removal of skin moles and tumours with subsequent pathological assessment. The clinic also offers gastroscopy and colonoscopy, internal medicine with cardiology, angiology and gastroenterology, neurology, dermatology and interventional pain therapy. On-site computed tomography and X-ray support fast and accurate diagnosis.
A dedicated day clinic allows many treatments to be carried out in a single day, without an overnight stay, including:
Every room is equipped with:
Wireless patient monitoring is available in every room for safety after an operation. Patients also have access to a cafeteria, a lounge and a quiet garden courtyard.
The clinic settles accounts directly with many statutory and all Austrian private insurers, as well as numerous foreign insurance providers. Self-paying patients from Austria and abroad receive an individual quotation in advance, so they can decide on treatment with full cost certainty. Patients who need rehabilitation afterwards can continue their recovery at the group's rehabilitation clinic in nearby Laßnitzhöhe.
