Every breast is different, as are each patient’s preferences and anatomical conditions. While some women want breast augmentation that looks as natural as possible, others prioritize a more significant increase in volume, a minimally invasive procedure, or breast augmentation without implants.
The Zum Goldenen Schnitt Clinic is one of the few specialized clinics in Switzerland that offers all breast augmentation methods under one roof, including, in addition to the classic breast augmentation as well as innovative processes Mia Femtech™ and Preservé™, for which Dr. Simona Lüdi, M.D., is specially trained and certified.
