I had a brow and upper eyelid lift performed by Dr. Rüegg at corrigé, and I am extremely satisfied with the result. The outcome looks very natural and precisely matches my expectations.
I would also like to particularly highlight the pleasant and courteous care provided by Dr. Rüegg and the practice assistants Ms. Müller and Ms. Osmonaj. I felt exceptionally well cared for and supported throughout the entire treatment process.
Overall, a very professional practice with high expertise and a friendly team. I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Rüegg and her entire practice team.

From the initial consultation, through support with external preliminary examinations, explanation of results and further procedures, the intervention under local anesthesia, to wound checks and the final consultation – excellent. The experience with PD Dr. Rüegg and her team was trustworthy, professional, and very pleasant (despite the unpleasant reason for the procedure). I also appreciated that the practice rooms are bright, well-maintained, without frills, and easily accessible by public transport or on foot. And as a surgeon, Dr. Rüegg combines knowledge, skill, experience, communication, and humor in a wonderful way.
I can recommend the corrigé practice with a clear conscience and without reservation.

A surgeon with the highest competence and professionalism. Without anything being visible, my facial issues were treated in such a way that I look significantly younger. Nobody notices that it was a procedure. I feel reborn. Many thanks also to the great team!

I had a breast reduction and lift performed by Dr. Rüegg and am extremely satisfied with the entire treatment, including consultation, preparation, execution, and especially with the beautiful result.
I had breasts that were too large, asymmetrical, and somewhat sagging due to two pregnancies, with a cup size of 75G. Dr. Rüegg advised me professionally, empathetically, and honestly. The surgery went smoothly, and the care before and after the operation by the entire team was extremely pleasant.
The pain in the first few days and occasionally in the first few weeks was relatively minor and very manageable with mild painkillers. All in all, I felt very well cared for by Dr. Rüegg and her team and am very grateful for the great result and the new sense of well-being.

A rhinoplasty can improve both the external appearance and the function of the nose. It ensures a harmonious nasal shape and can simultaneously correct problems such as restricted nasal breathing.
Rhinoplasty is performed exclusively using the open technique. This approach offers an optimal view of the bony and cartilaginous structures of the nose and allows for precise, controlled modeling. This way, changes in shape can be implemented purposefully and with high accuracy.
Typical procedures include the treatment of nasal humps, asymmetries, the improvement of the nasal tip, or the optimization of nasal breathing. Each treatment is adapted to your individual requirements.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia or twilight sedation. With the open technique, the rhinoplasty is performed via a small incision at the columella between the nostrils—located in the shadow of the nose—allowing for precise visualization and modeling of the structures.
After the operation, slight swelling and bruising are normal and usually subside within the first 7–10 days. The final result becomes visible after 6–12 months, once healing is fully complete.
Rhinoplasty leads to a visibly improved nasal shape that is optimized both aesthetically and functionally. Nasal breathing can also be improved, and the shape remains stable and harmonious.
When performed professionally by Dr. Rüegg, rhinoplasty is a very safe procedure. A thorough analysis, modern techniques, and precise aftercare minimize risks and ensure a long-term satisfactory result.
Natural results from our practice.
Whether aesthetic improvement or functional correction—PD Dr. med. Eva M. Rüegg will advise you individually. Arrange your non-binding consultation today.
To begin, PD Dr. med. Eva M. Rüegg analyzes your nasal shape and structure. Together, your wishes and expectations are discussed, and an individual solution is developed to achieve the best possible nasal shape and function.
The rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia or twilight sedation. Depending on the technique, a precise incision is made to achieve the desired effect. The treatment usually lasts 1–2 hours and is well tolerated.
After the treatment, slight swelling or bruising may occur, which subsides in the first few days. Careful aftercare ensures that the result is stable and the healing process is optimal. Sutures are removed after 7–10 days.
Here we answer the most important questions regarding rhinoplasty.
Healing after a rhinoplasty is individual and occurs in several stages. The procedure is usually performed on an outpatient basis or with an overnight stay in our clinic.
Immediately following the surgery, an individually adapted nasal splint or cast is applied in the operating room to stabilize the new shape. Patients usually wear this splint at home for about one week. After about seven days, it is carefully removed at our practice.
Slight swelling and discoloration on the face usually subside within one to two weeks. Final healing, meaning the complete adaptation of the cartilage structure and the reduction of swelling in the nasal tissue, extends over 6 to 12 months. During this time, the nasal profile continues to refine until the final result is visible.
Consistent aftercare and following our recommendations provide optimal support for the healing process.
Thanks to modern and gentle surgical techniques, precise diagnostics, and gentle general anesthesia, rhinoplasty is a well-tolerated treatment today.
In the first few days after the procedure, a slight feeling of tension may occur due to swelling in the area of the nostrils and the nasal tip. A feeling of pressure in the head or a slightly runny nose are also possible. However, these symptoms are usually easily treatable with cooling and painkillers.
As with any surgical procedure, there are certain risks associated with rhinoplasty, including post-operative bleeding, infection, or temporary wound healing disorders. However, these risks can be significantly reduced through modern and gentle techniques, careful planning, and many years of experience in plastic-aesthetic facial surgery.
Every rhinoplasty is individually planned and performed with the greatest precision, with the goal of achieving an aesthetically pleasing result and making the healing process as safe as possible.
The costs for a rhinoplasty depend on various factors: the scope of the procedure, the chosen technique, the initial findings, and whether additional functional aspects such as the nasal septum or nasal breathing need to be treated.
During the personal consultation, we will provide you with a cost estimate. The goal is to make the appropriate treatment of the highest quality accessible to every patient.
