Clinic Beethovenstrasse AG Beethovenstrasse 9 CH-8002 Zürich
What really lies behind plastic surgery? Is it merely a tool for superficial beauty ideals—or rather a path to self-worth, healing, and a new quality of life? In this episode, I talk about my book “Mein Kunsthandwerk.” I share the origins of the book idea, pivotal moments in my career, and moving stories from my patients. A conversation about responsibility, ethics, and the art of changing lives with empathy.
Episode 2 “Intimate Surgery Without Taboo”
Why is intimate surgery still a taboo topic? What complaints do affected women experience—and how can a labiaplasty improve their quality of life? In conversation with Marc Jäggi from Radio 1, we explore the medical, emotional, and social aspects, provide clarity, and talk about real-life experiences from clinical practice.
Episode 3: “Women Power in Surgery”
In this episode, I speak with Dr. med. Brigitte S. Muff—one of the first female chief surgeons in Switzerland. Together, we explore Dr. Muff’s fascinating career path, her commitment to promoting women and ethics, as well as the challenges and opportunities female physicians face in a field that is still largely male-dominated. An inspiring conversation about career, equality, and the courage to follow one’s own path.
Episode 4: “Mommy Makeover: What No One Tells You”
In this podcast episode, I take a critical look at the topic of the mommy makeover. I explain which procedures are typically combined, what is realistically achievable—and where social media creates dangerous illusions. I speak openly about risks, recovery phases, and the emotional pressure many women feel to look “perfect” again after giving birth.
Episode 5: “Why Aftercare Determines the Outcome”
In this episode, I talk about a often underestimated part of any operation: aftercare. Why it is medically crucial, which mistakes patients most frequently make, and how you can actively contribute to the success of your treatment. A patient is also live in the studio, openly sharing how she experienced the preparation, healing process, and everyday life after the procedure. A direct, honest, and highly informative insight into the reality of surgical aftercare.
Episode 6: “Breast Surgery from Two Perspectives”
In this episode, I talk with my colleague and friend Dr. med. Alessia Lardi about the connection between aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery. What methods are available, how do patients’ expectations differ—and where do these two areas complement each other? A concise insight into two perspectives within a shared discipline.
Episode 7: “From Head to Toe – Aesthetics Meets Function”
What do plastic surgery and orthopedic foot surgery have in common? More than you might think. In this episode of “From Head to Toe,” Dr. Gerardo Maquieira and I talk about why aesthetics should never be considered in isolation — but always in interplay with function, alignment, and movement.
Dr. Maquieira, an orthopedic surgeon and traumatologist specializing in the foot, brings international experience from Switzerland, Spain, and the United States — as well as a shared past with me at University Hospital Zurich (USZ), where we both treated severely injured patients. Our conversation explores beautiful versus healthy feet, high heels, hallux valgus, pregnancy, menopause, and the question of when aesthetic wishes make medical sense — and when they don’t.
A podcast about the foundation of our body: honest, expert, and surprisingly holistic.
Hyaluronic acid & biostimulators – terms that seem to be everywhere today. But what actually happens when injections are used in aesthetic medicine? And why are experts suddenly talking about collagen stimulation instead of fillers?
In this conversation, I explain the three main groups of injectable treatments: hyaluronic acid, and modern biostimulators. I show when each substance is used, why combination treatments are becoming increasingly common, and why new therapies are playing a particularly important role in cases of significant weight loss, for example through GLP-1 medications.
Episode 10: “The Taboo Topic of Gynecomastia”
Male breast enlargement – a topic hardly anyone talks about. Yet an astonishing number of men are affected: from true gynecomastia to so-called pseudogynecomastia. When is it simply fatty tissue – and when is it hormonally caused glandular tissue? What role do puberty, aging, medication, alcohol, or anabolic steroids play? And how significant is the psychological burden really?
This episode explores the causes, shame, modern treatment options, and the question of when medical evaluation becomes important. An open conversation about a taboo topic that affects far more men than many people realize.
Episode 10: «Tabuthema Gynäkomastie»
Männerbrust – ein Thema, über das kaum jemand spricht. Dabei sind erstaunlich viele Männer betroffen: von echter Gynäkomastie bis zur sogenannten Pseudogynäkomastie. Wann steckt einfach Fettgewebe dahinter – und wann hormonell bedingtes Drüsengewebe? Welche Rolle spielen Pubertät, Alter, Medikamente, Alkohol oder Anabolika? Und wie gross ist der psychische Leidensdruck wirklich? Es geht um Ursachen, Scham, moderne Behandlungsmöglichkeiten und die Frage, wann eine medizinische Abklärung wichtig wird. Ein offenes Gespräch über ein Tabuthema, das weit mehr Männer betrifft, als viele denken.
Episode 11: “More Than Beauty – Why Preoperative Breast Diagnostics Are Essential”
How important are ultrasound, mammography and MRI before breast surgery? When is one examination enough – and when is more needed? I discuss these questions with radiologist Prof. Dr. Nadia Mamisch-Saupe in the new podcast episode. A conversation about early detection, patient safety and why breast surgery is about far more than aesthetics.
Episode 12: “Beauty and Pain”
Pain does not only arise in the body — sometimes it begins in the mind, in our experiences, or even in the way we see ourselves. Why do two people experience the same pain completely differently? When does acute pain turn into chronic suffering? And what role do fear and expectations play in pain processing? I discuss these questions with Dr. Roland Schreiber, specialist in surgery and pain specialist/neural therapist. Together, we explore the fascinating intersection between modern pain medicine and plastic surgery — from optimal preparation for surgery and pain memory to the question of whether emotional pain can be just as real as physical pain. A conversation about medicine, perception, and the surprisingly close connection between beauty and pain.
Woman to Woman - Part 1
Together with Dr Anna Burger and Dr Alessia Marisa Lardi, I speak openly about our personal and professional journeys in a field that, despite the growing proportion of women, is still strongly dominated by men. The discussion focuses on experiences from everyday surgical practice, leadership responsibilities, equal opportunities and the question of how the culture of surgery needs to evolve in the future. The podcast combines personal stories with current figures, highlighting the progress that has already been made – and the areas where further action is still needed.
An honest conversation from woman to woman – about challenges, opportunities and the future of plastic surgery. A special thank you goes to Lou Albin of Albin Group AG, who made this fascinating conversation possible and moderated it.
