Body Contouring Surgeries: Achieve the Shape You Desire
Body contouring surgeries are cosmetic procedures designed to refine body lines, eliminate excess fat and skin, and create a more toned and sculpted appearance. Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty) and Liposuction are among the most popular body contouring operations.
These procedures help erase the effects of pregnancy, weight loss, or aging, enhancing self-confidence and restoring body proportions. At our clinic, we offer customized surgical solutions to deliver natural and aesthetic results that suit your body.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdominal area, resulting in a flatter and tighter stomach. This procedure is ideal for individuals who have experienced pregnancy or significant weight loss.
How is it Done?
- A horizontal incision is made in the lower abdomen, typically along the bikini line.
- Excess skin and fat are removed.
- Abdominal muscles are tightened, and the skin is redraped for a smoother, firmer contour.
- The belly button is reshaped for a natural appearance.
Who is a Good Candidate?
- Individuals experiencing sagging in the abdomen after pregnancy.
- Patients with loose skin following weight loss.
- People unable to achieve a flat stomach despite diet and exercise.
Recovery Process:
- Rest is required for the first 1-2 weeks.
- Light activities can resume after 2 weeks, with full recovery in 6-8 weeks.
- Wearing a compression garment during recovery helps support healing.
Liposuction (Fat Removal)
Liposuction is a procedure that removes stubborn fat deposits from specific areas of the body using vacuum-assisted techniques. It is not a weight-loss procedure but rather a method to reshape and refine body contours.
How is it Done?
- Small incisions are made, and thin cannulas are inserted into the areas with excess fat.
- Fat cells are loosened and removed through vacuum suction.
- The body is sculpted to enhance the natural curves.
Areas Suitable for Liposuction:
- Abdomen and waist
- Hips and thighs
- Upper arms and legs
- Back and neck
Who is a Good Candidate?
- Individuals with localized fat deposits and a normal body mass index (BMI).
- Patients with good skin elasticity.
- Those who struggle to eliminate fat through diet and exercise.
Recovery Process:
- Mild pain and bruising may occur but typically subside within a week.
- Normal activities can resume in 1 week, with full recovery in 4-6 weeks.
Combination of Tummy Tuck and Liposuction
Tummy tuck and liposuction are often performed together to achieve optimal results. This combination addresses both excess fat and sagging skin, resulting in a more defined and sculpted body shape.
