Dr. med. Niehus was a partner at Clinic Utoquai until 2017. Previously, he spent 3 years specializing in liposuction and body contouring. After many years of hospital training in general and trauma surgery, he obtained his specialist certification in surgery (FMH) in 2006. He completed his aesthetic training at various clinics in Europe and America.

"To be able to call myself an absolute top specialist, I have focused on liposuction. I only treat my patients after a detailed consultation, during which I explain the different methods and clarify why I would use specific ones for them. I take plenty of time for this and am of course also available as your contact person after the treatment."

To maintain the high level of treatment quality, Dr. Niehus ensures continuous education and training and is thus always up to date with the latest research. He also maintains regular exchange with other worldwide leading experts.
