Clinical-psychological assessment prior to aesthetic surgery

In Austria, a psychological examination is required by law for 16 to 18-year-olds before certain aesthetic procedures (§ 5 para. 2, § 7 para. 2 ÄsthOpG). This ensures that there are no psychological disorders underlying the desire for surgery.

The examination (1.5-3 hours) includes a discussion about the reasons for the treatment, a medical history and psychological tests. A referral from the surgeon is required. Please bring a photo ID, medical documents and proof of payment. A prior consultation is recommended.

Costs

  • 530 € to 770 € (to be paid privately, not covered by health insurance).

This measure serves the responsible examination of aesthetic interventions in adolescents.

OPD diagnostics

Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnostics (OPD) is a depth psychology method for the comprehensive assessment of psychological problems. It supplements traditional diagnoses with a detailed analysis of unconscious conflicts, relationship patterns, structural abilities and disease processing.

The diagnosis is based on a detailed clinical interview and a structured assessment in several dimensions. It is used for a precise understanding of the case and individual therapy planning. The examination usually lasts 90 to 120 minutes and can be supplemented by further sessions, depending on the issue at hand.

Sometimes one's own experience raises questions - for example, when mood, drive, attention, relationships or performance are different than expected or change noticeably. A psychological or psychiatric and psychotherapeutic diagnosis helps to better understand the situation. It shows what strengths and resources you have, where you need relief and support and what form of treatment or support is appropriate.

In the Viennese practice, experienced psychologists, therapists and psychiatrists accompany adults with empathy, clarity and scientifically sound knowledge - so that more understanding for one's own way of thinking, feeling and acting can arise and development can succeed step by step.
