The Clinic has heard your needs and understand some of the struggles that excess skin (following significant weight loss) can cause. We have also heard and sympathise with the high costs that can be associated with skin removal surgery.

This is why we are introducing body contouring abdominoplasty (lipectomy) for our post-bariatric patients with the aim to address some of the unique challenges following major weight reduction.

The aim of abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) surgery are:
• Removal of excess skin and contouring of the abdomen
• Restoration of abdominal wall integrity
• Improved body proportions and silhouette
• Enhanced comfort in clothing and daily activity

Every procedure is individualised, recognising that no two weight loss journeys are the same. If you’ve achieved significant weight loss and have been thinking about the need for abdominoplasty, come chat with the team today about your options.

Deciding on which clinic to go with can be the second biggest decision once you have set your mind on weight loss surgery.

This decision should go beyond simple finances with some unique aspects to consider. Bariatric management is deeply personal and you should always feel comfortable that your team has your best interest at heart. The team should be highly experienced and at the forefront of novel weight-loss therapies. Battling weight goes beyond surgery and your team should always exhibit true commitment to long term aftercare.

Our NEW BLOG highlights some of the key factors to look out for when choosing the right clinic for you.

It is crucial to nail the VLCD (Optifast) pre-operative diet prior to bariatric surgery.

Understand what the VLCD diet is and how it can positively impact your body to allow for a SAFER, SMOOTHER Operation.

The benefits of the diet goes beyond surgery and can have lasting impacts on your overall weight loss journey.

Toughing out the weeks of the pre-operative VLCD diet is that initial step in committing to the process and setting yourself up for the journey ahead!

Spent the last one week in Istanbul picking the brain of plastic surgeon - Dr. Huseyin Kandulu on all aspects of lipo-abdominoplasty surgery (tummy tuck). Thank you to The European College of Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery (ECAMS) for putting the mastery course together!

It was truly an eye opening experience where I got to see what is possible with body contouring beyond just traditional abdominoplasty surgery.

There is certainly a need within the weight loss space and I can't wait to bring the lipo-abdominoplasty procedure to existing post-bariatric patients of the practice!
