Hi there, i'm very very wary of your method and this website Dr Merck. As much as I would love to believe you, sadly you have provided no evidence that your procedure has worked and that it lasts.
You can't expect me to fly over to Germany solely on your word.
Other cosmetic surgery companies offer before and after pictures (you state you're not allowed to but I thought the article which prohibits you from publishing photos was only for German-based surgeries, could you not use your Palma site to get around this?). Other companies also offer credit/debit card facilities and try and make the process as transparent as possible.
A video of the surgery, or stage by stage photos would help all of us try and believe you.
Waiting for some proof,
Me. |

I havent had a procedure yet and would certainly like to see more before and after photos too. However I did some research into Daniel Küblböck`s photos which you can Google for and there clearly is a big diffirence if you examine them. |

Dear guest,
Unfortunately it's true that German legislators decided that as of April 1st, 2006 no doctor is allowed to advertise with "before and after" photos for cosmetic operations (that means all types of cosmetic operations: nose corrections, facelifts, etc.).
They decided this because a lot of German teenagers, not of age and without fully-grown bodies, were induced to have cosmetic operations by the photos. The law is thus there to protect them. There are severe consequences for doctors who show them.
I used to show many "before and after" photos on my website, but I had to remove them all. I can still show them at my clinic, however. Perhaps if you are in Constance, you can come by and take a look at them all. You may also meet my nurse, who I operated on 8 years ago. She had one ear operated on. It is utterly impossible to determine which is the operated ear and which is the normal ear. I enjoy challenging my visiting patients to try to figure it out.
I do not have a special website for Palma, but I like your idea and I'm going to ask and see what I can do concerning this matter.
Kind regards,
Priv. Doz. Dr. med. W. Merck |

Dr Merck if I come to see you Mallorca are there any ex-patients I can see there before my procedure? It would be great if you could put some before and after photos on the Palma website.
thanks,
Rob |

I researched your old site and there was only one photo of "before and after", a little girl.
There was also a video of a girl looking very pleased in an operating theatre, however no procedure was shown.
I would love to stop by your surgery and check it out but sadly I can't afford to fly over unless it was to have the procedure carried out. |

Dear sceptical,
Describing the exact operation method in detail is not the function of this forum. I only grant detailed explanations to professional doctors who want to study my method so that they can practice it (without misuse and without misunderstandings). For this reason, I founded the academy for doctors in Mallorca.
I would recommend that you simply come by and visit my practice in Cosntance. Or you can wait until one opens in London, I cannot however say exactly when this will be yet (sometime in 2007).
Kind regards,
Priv.Doz.Dr. med. W. Merck |
