Attractiveness by high cheekbones (zygomatic bones)
A cheekbone onlay allows enhancement of cheeks which are sunken or receded. Faces with a flat midface structure and rather elongated shape can be made considerable more attractive by enhancing the cheekbone.
Treatment takes place via the oral cavity, preventing outwardly visible scars
Onlay materials such as lyophilised cartilage or other biological materials emphasise the cheekbones. The size and position of the zygomatic (cheekbone) onlay is determined in consultation with each patient. Every region of the zygomatic complex is carefully assessed, i.e. the anterior upper jaw/zygomatic region in the area of the sulcus infraorbitalis, the zygomatic body itself and the zygomatic arch. This differentiation is important and is often not considered.
Permanent result
As treatment takes place via the oral cavity there are no outwardly visible scars. The treatment is performed under general anaesthetic and is painless. Postoperatively there is merely a little swelling which usually occurs. The patient can subsequently return home. A long lasting result is achieved.

The material from lyophilised cartilage ossifies over time and transforms into the body’s own bone. The material is embedded under the periosteum without the need for screws. This procedure achieves a permanent and natural effect

Mrs. Pia K. Germany
I had my operation with Professor Sailer in October 2017. I learnt about the clinic several years ago. However, the procedure was not yet possible for me at that time.
After having an operation carried out on my lower jaw in Germany, which did not solve my actual problem, I decided that I would only have a second procedure carried out by a specialist. After a change of job, my dream once again seemed to be within reach and I arranged a consulting appointment. At the appointment I met Dr. Sailer and Professor Sailer and already on the flight back home I was sure that I would have the procedure carried out there. Following a second appointment, at which everything was precisely discussed and planned, I was lucky enough to be assigned an operation date a few weeks later.
It was a major procedure, but believe it or not, I was never in pain for a single moment. Three months have gone by now and everything has healed well and the swelling has subsided. After years of being dissatisfied, my new appearance is a source of delight every day. Having the procedure carried out was one of the best decisions of my life and I can wholeheartedly recommend the professor, his clinic and the whole team. Rest assured you are in good hands there, both in terms of care and technical competence.

I found a clinic and Dr. in Europe, who deals with facial implants, in addition to others body aesthetic surgeries. I decided to have the surgery there. The Dr. used jaw silicone implants, which look terrible on my face. The result became asymmetry, as the silicone implants moved, the size, shape and the location was not as I wanted, my chin became even longer with the implant, and the total look had no harmony at all. I was very disappointed.I thought to myself, may be my case is too complicated.
I felt that it's a must to correct the result, and remove the implants I had, because deeply inside I knew that my wish can come true. My brain told me to give up. My heart insisted to keep on looking for a surgeon. One day I found on a forum Pro. Sailer's website. I had a doubt "ohh another website where I'm about to find a minor facial structure transformation". I clicked on the gallery and I was in shock and amazed by the results. "WOW, this is what I want and need, a surgeon who is an expert with facial structure, with jawline, someone who has so much experience and not afraid to make a big transformations".

"WOW, this is what I want and need, a surgeon who is an expert with facial structure, with jawline, someone who has so much experience and not afraid to make a big transformations".
I could not wait to talk to Dr. Erica on the phone and to share with her my wish and story. I sent her some photos and some model's photo, in order to show her what is my wish. She calmed me down and showed Pro. Sailer my case. I got a phone call back later, it's was Dr. Erica – "we can do it!". Dr. Erica was very nice and gentle from the beginning, with a lot of confident. It's was a wonderful moment.
The next step was to book a consultation with Pro. Sailer. Angela helped me with her professional job to book it. She was very nice from the first call. I'm on my way to Zurich and I cannot wait to meet Pro. Sailer, Dr. Erica and the whole team. The clinic is well designed, the team is very professional and nice. First, I met Dr. Erica who welcomed me with open arms. She was very professional and advised me what are the best procedures to achieve my wish. She has a lot of experience and high aesthetic vision. Then, I met Pro. Sailer. WOW, what I can tell about him. From the very first moment I felt very comfortable with him, with no distance or masks, I felt like I know him for years. He looked at me, he looked at the model's photo and started to explain me how is it possible to make my wish come true. He noticed immediately alone to every detail. In this moment, I understood that he is synced with me, and that he is a real expert who does not afraid to deal with the real thing – with the facial bone structure. He feels at home in this field. Pro. Sailer has so much patient, which I've never seen before. He listened to every detail, and he really wanted to achieve my wish in the best way. Jelena joined to the consultations with her high aesthetic vision and experience. I could feel that I'm in the right clinic. I booked a second consultation to discuss some more issues. I felt like this is the correct place to have the surgery. I've never had this feeling before. Dr. Erica truly said to me "this is an investment for your whole life, it's much better than buying a new car". I totally agree.
I booked the surgery date with the wonderful Angela. I met Pro. Sailer and Jelena a couple of days before the surgery. Every detail was clear with a lot of patient in the pre-surgery consultation. The day of the surgery came, the moment of truth. I was very excited, but not too much nervous, because I'm not afraid from surgical procedures. In addition, I had a good feeling and knew that I put my face in the best facial surgeon's hand and with the best team. The anesthetic was very nice and funny. When I woke up I had no pains, just a stiff and numb feeling in my lower face. The heavy swollen begun in the day after for several days. I had to stay more than 10 days in Zurich, in order to see that my body accepts the jaw implants. Pro. Sailer and Jelena took care of me every day in the best way with a lot of funny moments along to thrilling moments. Dr. Erica encouraged me every time we met, and the whole team was very nice, supportive and helpful. My mom was next to me for the several first days, in order to support me.
Now, a month and a week after the surgery, I can say without any doubt and clearly, Pro. Sailer is the best facial surgeon in the world. No one could have done my wish better than him. After so much years of suffering, I can feel and see the harmony I wished for. For me, in addition to the amazing result, it gives me the opportunity to start a lot of new things. Finally, I can take photos and videos while I'm not hiding from the camera, more than this, I want to be in front of the camera. Pro. Sailer blessed by god with the ability, talent, gentle and modesty personality to touch people and replace disharmony with harmony with the best version of yourself.
Pro. Sailer, Dr. Erica, Dr. Kapor, Jelena, Angela and the whole team I love you so much, I'm so grateful, and I miss you a lot.
Thanks a lot,
Mr. O.

Mrs. S.P.
After an unsuccessful surgery I consulted many doctors in Germany in search of help.
After a lot of time searching the Internet, I learned about Prof. Sailer in Zürich
I contacted his very sympathetic and friendly wife, Frau Dr. Sailer, and Frau Oppenberger, who was also very helpful. I travelled to Zürich with my mum.
Prof. Sailer was the most caring and considerate doctor I have ever met.
Regarding my difficult situation, he put a lot of thought into how he could help me.
Prof. Sailer is trying to root out the exact cause of the problem.
Here at his clinic you’re not just parked in a corner.
From the very first moment I felt well looked-after in Prof. Sailer’s clinic and I have complete trust in him.
They also looked after my mum very well here.
They even rang me up after I got home to find out how I was doing.
A doctor had never done that for me before.
The entire team that we talked to at the clinic was more than helpful, and very kind too.
That’s why we want to thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
Thank you and until next time.”
warm regards
S.P.

Experience report by Maliqi Kushtrin, Switzerland
Since the age of 16, I have been unhappy with the asymmetry of my face, more precisely with the difference between my cheeks and upper cheekbones, and I began to look for a specialist on the Internet.
Professor Sailer in Zurich seemed to have the most experience in this, judging by the many photos on his website. The response to my first written inquiry already gave me the impression that my case and my aesthetic desires were being taken seriously. Based on the photos of my face I had sent to the hospital, I received a free phone consultation with Dr. Schwob a few days later. After the very informative conversation and a good feeling as well as a sense of trust that I had come to the right place, I agreed on an examination appointment. X-ray images were taken, and I also met Professor Sailer. He was very pleasant and I was surprised at how much time he took for me and my problem. I was also shown many impressive photos of patients who had undergone surgery at the clinic, and they even offered me the option of contacting some of them. They first of all prescribed an anti-clench splint for me, as I was clenching my teeth together and my jaws always make a cracking sound, which in turn caused my masticatory muscles to strengthen and grow. This lead to a good, but unfortunately still not completely satisfactory aesthetic result. I was determined to undergo reconstructive surgery to have my cheekbones aligned. My mother and my brother accompanied me to the last consulting appointment before surgery and encouraged me to proceed with my plans.
Nearly two years have passed since then and I am writing this letter to give a big thank you to Professor Sailer.
I am very glad I underwent this surgery.
