Aesthetic surgery

A thorough approach to planning aesthetic procedures with the aim of a natural result and the preservation of proportions. He places particular emphasis on communication about expectations, possible limitations and the course of recovery.

Plastic-reconstructive surgery

Reconstructive procedures are aimed at functional improvement and aesthetic harmony. The approach is structured: assessment, plan, execution and monitoring of recovery with clear instructions.

Consultations and an individual plan

The consultation is the place where things “fall into place”: goals, indications, choice of technique and realistic outcomes. The patient receives an understandable plan and recommendations (planning and preparation, recovery after the procedure, follow-ups).

Testimonials from our patients

I had breast augmentation at Polyclinic Cito and the experience was extraordinary. The entire team - surgeons Dr. Bagatin and Dr. Tripković, anesthesiologist Dr. Radanović - is top-notch, professional and extremely knowledgeable. I had wanted the procedure for a long time, and after the first consultation I immediately knew I was in the right hands. I followed all the surgeon's advice, the result is perfect and my only regret is that I did not do it sooner. I highly recommend it!

All praise and a big thank you to the surgical team, Dr. Tripković and Dr. Bagatin. Only words of praise, wonderful, both as people and as doctors. The nurses are kind, friendly, caring - I don't even know how to thank them! A surgical procedure on a 9-year-old girl, whom they calmed down so much that she arrived with a smile and joy. The cyst removal procedure itself was performed superbly, went without any complications and the recovery is in great order. All recommendations.. and more than that!

I rarely write reviews, but this time I can't and don't want to miss the opportunity to at least in this way thank and convey my admiration and gratitude. So, a big thank you to Mr. Tripković for his kindness, professionalism and for the perfectly performed procedure. I have rarely experienced such a humane approach, such calmness and, above all, such a big smile, which surely makes a person feel comfortable - and here I did. A big thank you once again. Furthermore, his colleague Mr. Bagatin, who was also there and because of whom it seemed to me that everything is possible and feasible, added another dose of safety and trust. Thank you, Mr. Bagatin. All my recommendations.
