Liposuction

Even with a healthy lifestyle, certain areas of the body can hold onto stubborn fat that resists change. Liposuction is a precise and versatile technique that refines and reshapes these areas, restoring balance, proportion, and contour — helping you feel more confident in your natural form.

It is suitable for both men and women, and can target areas such as the abdomen, waist, hips, thighs, knees, arms, chin, and chest. For some, it brings subtle refinement — the final step in a fitness or wellness journey. For others, including those who have lost significant weight or experienced changes through pregnancy or age, it offers restoration and definition where the body needs gentle sculpting.

During the procedure, small incisions are made to remove unwanted fat through fine cannulas. The technique allows for detailed shaping, maintaining harmony with surrounding areas while enhancing the natural lines of your body. In some cases, the removed fat can be purified and used to restore volume in other areas, such as the face, hands, or breasts.

Liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure but a contouring one — an art of refinement that complements your efforts and brings the body back into balance.

Every patient’s body, lifestyle, and goals are unique. During consultation, I take time to understand your priorities and create a personalised plan that enhances your silhouette while maintaining a natural, balanced result.

Final results 

As swelling gradually subsides over the following months, your body refines into a smoother, more defined shape that feels natural, balanced, and in tune with your frame. The change is often subtle yet deeply transformative — clothes fit better, movement feels easier, and the mirror reflects greater confidence.

For some, liposuction is the finishing touch to an ongoing fitness journey; for others, it marks a new beginning — a chance to reconnect with their body after pregnancy, weight loss, or simply the passage of time. My goal is to achieve results that look effortless, refined, and entirely your own — restoring harmony, confidence, and comfort in the way you move and feel.

  • 1. Who is a good candidate for liposuction?

    Liposuction is suitable for men and women with stubborn areas of fat resistant to diet and exercise. Ideal candidates are near a healthy, stable weight and wish to refine, not replace, overall body contour.

  • 2. Is liposuction a weight-loss treatment?

    No — liposuction is a contouring procedure, not a weight-loss method. It refines shape and proportion by removing localised fat deposits, complementing your existing healthy habits.

  • 3. Which areas can be treated?

    Common areas include the abdomen, hips, thighs, knees, upper arms, flanks, back, chest, and under the chin. Multiple areas can be treated in one session depending on your goals and safety considerations.

  • 4. How painful is recovery?

    You may feel tightness, swelling, and mild bruising for the first week or two. Most discomfort is easily managed with pain relief, and gentle movement helps the healing process.

  • 5. When can I return to work and exercise?

    Most patients return to work within one to two weeks, depending on the extent of the procedure. Light exercise can resume after four to six weeks, with full activity after about eight weeks.

  • 6. Will there be scars?

    The incisions are very small and discreetly placed in natural skin creases. Scars fade over time and are typically barely visible after several months.

  • 7. How long do results last?

    The results are long-lasting if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Removed fat cells do not return, though remaining cells can enlarge with significant weight change.

  • 8. What are the risks?

    Risks include swelling, bruising, uneven contouring, infection, or changes in skin sensation — though serious complications are rare. Choosing an experienced surgeon and following aftercare advice helps ensure the safest and best outcome.
