Cookies
In order to make your visit to our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use cookies, which are small text files that are stored on your device. The purpose of these cookies is to collect and process specific user information, such as browser and location data as well as IP address values, to an individual extent. In some cases, cookies are used to simplify a user’s experience by saving settings (i.e., remembering the contents of a prior website submission). Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie, or after you delete your own cookies within your browser settings. Some of the cookies we use are deleted after closing your browser.
Other cookies remain on your terminal and enable us or our partner companies (third-party cookies) to recognize your browser on your next visit; when we work with the aforementioned advertising partners, you will be individually and separately informed about the use of such cookies.

Use Of Youtube Videos
This website uses the Youtube embedding function to display and play videos from the provider “Youtube,” which belongs to Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
According to “Youtube,” These serve, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent abusive practices. If you are logged in to Google, your information will be directly associated with your account when you click on a video. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on YouTube, you must log out before activating the button. Google saves your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them.
Regardless of the playback of the embedded videos, every time this website is accessed, a connection to the Google network “DoubleClick” is established, which can trigger further data processing operations without our influence.
Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified for the US European data protection agreement “Privacy Shield,” which guarantees compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU. Further information on data protection at “YouTube” can be found in the provider’s data protection declaration at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.
Tools And Miscellaneous
Google Maps: On our website, we use Google Maps (API) from Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (country) maps in order to display geographical information visually. By using this service, you will be able to see our location and find us easily.
When you access the sub-pages that contain the Google Maps map, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. This is regardless of whether Google provides a user account that you are logged in from or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your information will be directly associated with your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google saves your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates them. Such an evaluation takes place in particular, according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit.f DSGVO on the basis of the legitimate interests of Google in the insertion of personalized advertising, market research, and/or demand-oriented design of its website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. However, you must contact Google to exercise this right.
Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified for the US-European data protection agreement “Privacy Shield,” which guarantees compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.
If you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google in the context of the use of Google Maps, it is also possible to completely deactivate the Google Maps web service by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. Only then Google Maps and, therefore also, the map display on this website cannot be used. You can view Google’s Terms of Use at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/terms/regional.html. The additional Terms of Use for Google Maps can be found at https://www.google.com/intl/de_US/help/terms_maps.html.

Google Web Fonts: This website may or may not use web fonts provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”), to display fonts uniformly. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required Web fonts into its browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.
To do this, the browser you are using must connect to Google’s servers. This gives Google knowledge that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web Fonts is in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font is used by your computer. Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified for the US European data protection agreement “Privacy Shield,” which guarantees compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.

The photographs are of the real patients of Dr. Deutsch. These patients have agreed to be a part of this website strictly as an informative tool. The pictures are meant to provide an idea of surgical outcomes. Please remember that each patient’s results are individual and unique to body form. In addition, any surgical procedure elicits scars. The degree of scar formation is also on an individual basis. Scars do improve with time and with appropriate massage and protection from the sun. Dr. Deutsch can also improve scar appearance through injections and/or surgical revision.
