Neck liposuction in Leech Private Clinic

6 patients
chose clinic for Plastic Surgery

About the clinic

Neck liposuction at Leech Private Clinic in Graz, Austria, focuses on removing stubborn fat deposits to refine the jawline and neck profile. This procedure is performed by specialists who target fat distribution disorders and medical conditions like lipedema. The clinic holds EN ISO 9001:2015 accreditation, which confirms its adherence to international quality management standards.

Personalized Specialist Care

The clinic uses the Belegarzt system. This allows patients to choose their own specialist for the procedure. Univ. Prof. Dr. Michael Schintler and Univ. Prof. Dr. Stephan Spendel are two of the experienced surgeons available. Both doctors are experts in plastic, aesthetic, and reconstructive surgery. They provide one-on-one care from the first meeting through the recovery phase. This system helps make sure the treatment matches the specific goals of each patient.

Advanced Diagnostic Facilities

Leech Private Clinic is part of the SANLAS Holding group. It features 44 beds and three modern operating theaters. The facility includes an on-site day clinic with CT and X-ray equipment. Having diagnostics in the same building helps speed up the pre-operative process. Patients can often complete their tests and surgery in a single visit. This makes the journey more comfortable and saves time.

Procedure Focus and Recovery

Liposuction is a tool for body shaping rather than a weight loss method for general obesity. It effectively treats fat that does not respond to diet or exercise. Before the surgery, every patient must have an initial consultation. During this meeting, the surgeon reviews the medical history and sets expectations. For those who need follow-up care, the clinic’s connection to 13 SANLAS facilities provides easy access to rehabilitation services.

Transparent Treatment Planning

Self-paying patients receive an individual cost estimate before they start. This helps people plan their budget without hidden fees. The medical team focuses on safety and natural-looking results. They use modern methods to remove fat cells while minimizing downtime. To learn more about the options for neck liposuction in Graz, you can request a consultation on Bookimed.

Leech Private Clinic : more details about the clinic

Austria, Graz

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.

Surgical Specialties

The clinic covers almost every surgical field apart from obstetrics, including:

  • Ophthalmology, including cataract surgery, lens implants and eyelid operations
  • Orthopaedic surgery
  • Urological surgery, including a new minimally invasive, endoscopic technique for the prostate
  • Ear, nose and throat surgery, including tonsil and adenoid operations in children
  • Plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgery
  • Gynaecological surgery
  • Vascular surgery with interventional angiology

Dental treatment under general anaesthesia is also available.

Cancer and Other Treatments

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.

Day Clinic

A dedicated day clinic allows many treatments to be carried out in a single day, without an overnight stay, including:

  • Cataract operations
  • Eyelid surgery
  • Removal of moles and skin tumours
  • Smaller orthopaedic procedures such as carpal tunnel release
  • ENT operations
  • Minor plastic surgery

Comfort and Safety

Every room is equipped with:

  • An electrically adjustable bed
  • A refrigerator
  • A safe
  • Satellite television
  • A nurse-call system

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.

International Patients

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.

Had an artificial knee joint inserted in February 2025 and can honestly only say the best about the clinic. From the lady at reception to the nursing staff, the ward doctor and the first officer, I was treated extremely competently and in a particularly friendly and supportive manner. It is rare to find so much attention and positive human and professional support.

I had an operation on my left kidney by Dr Sunjara on February 24, 2025 at the Leech Private Clinic. A top clinic, starting with the cleaners, nursing staff and doctors, all very nice and friendly. Also a big compliment to the kitchen food was perfect.
