What Kö-Klinik does

KÖ-KLINIK GmbH is a private clinic for cosmetic and plastic surgery founded in 1999 and headquartered on Königsallee in Düsseldorf, Germany. It is one of Germany's longstanding specialist aesthetic surgery practices, having treated more than 50,000 patients across 25+ years of operation. The clinic performs both outpatient and inpatient procedures under a state concession granted under §30 GewO (German Trade Regulation), with full anesthesia monitoring capabilities. Its medical team is exclusively specialized in aesthetic and plastic surgery, with several physicians holding dual board certifications (e.g., ENT plus plastic-aesthetic surgery for rhinoplasty). The clinic is led by Managing Directors Tim Funke and Salim Teke.

The clinic's core services span surgical procedures — including facelifts, breast augmentation/reduction/lift, liposuction, tummy tucks, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, arm lifts, and Brazilian Butt Lifts — and minimally invasive treatments such as Botox and hyaluronic acid injectables, CoolSculpting cryolipolysis, PRP/Vampire lifting, thread lifting, laser therapy, mesotherapy, and chemical peels. Supporting digital tools include procedure-specific online calculators (breast, liposuction, nose, wrinkle, CoolSculpting), online appointment booking, and video consultation. The clinic sells complication insurance and offers 0% financing for up to 6 months on procedures like rhinoplasty to reduce cost friction. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time procedure fees across a German patient base, with cross-border service in Switzerland.

KÖ-KLINIK distributes through its surgical HQ in Düsseldorf and six consultation-only centers in Hamburg, Frankfurt, München, Nürnberg, Stuttgart, and Zürich. It markets via celebrity endorsements, German TV partnerships (ProSieben's 'The Swan', RTL2's 'Extrem schön'), earned media, and owned digital content. The clinic operates two brand subsidiaries — Kö-HAIR for hair transplantation and Kösmetik for e-commerce skincare — and maintains technology partnerships with CoolSculpting, Allurion, and multiple breast implant manufacturers (Motiva, Mentor, Polytech). It holds the myBody quality seal continuously since 2012 and the 2013 DISQ first-place award for consultation quality.
