Water-jet-assisted liposuction under local anaesthesia: no scalpel, no general anaesthesia, minimal recovery time. The harvested autologous fat can be used directly for BBL, breast or face. Self-pay service — no insurance billing, no waiting times.
All about WAL →From Essen, Düsseldorf is reachable in just 30 to 35 minutes — one of the shortest connections from the Ruhr area. The catchment area extends well beyond the city limits into the neighbouring Ruhr cities.
Patients come from Essen-Rüttenscheid, Steele and Kettwig as well as the neighbouring cities of Mülheim an der Ruhr and Oberhausen.
By car the route runs via the A52 straight towards Düsseldorf. Those who prefer public transport take the S1 suburban train: Essen Hbf reaches Düsseldorf Hbf in about 30 minutes with no change.
The catchment area is dominated by the licence plates E, MH and OB.
From experience with Ruhr-area patients we know that many value an outpatient procedure without an overnight stay. That is exactly what WAL under local anaesthesia enables — arrive, get treated and be back home the same day, with no hospital stay.
By car via the A52 about 30–35 minutes; by S1 train from Essen Hbf around 30 minutes to Düsseldorf Hbf.
