Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A Tummy Tuck, or Abdominoplasty, is a procedure designed to create a smoother, firmer abdominal profile.
This surgery is particularly beneficial for those who have gone through pregnancy, significant weight loss, or ageing, which have left them with excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles. By removing excess fat and skin and tightening the muscles of the abdominal wall, Anthony can help restore a more toned and slender figure. This procedure can significantly improve how clothing fits and looks, leading to enhanced self-esteem and comfort in one’s body.
Liposuction Body Jet
Liposuction by Body Jet is an innovative and gentle method of liposuction that uses a water-assisted technique to dislodge and remove fat from the body.
This procedure is ideal for sculpting and refining areas of the body where stubborn fat persists despite diet and exercise. With precision and care, Anthony targets these areas, resulting in a more defined and contoured silhouette. The Body Jet technique minimises trauma to the treated areas, leading to quicker recovery times and less discomfort compared to traditional liposuction methods, making it a preferred choice for many of our patients.
Body Lift after Massive Weight Loss
A Body Lift is a complex procedure that addresses excess skin and fat around the lower abdomen, hips, lower back, and buttocks, often resulting from significant weight loss or natural ageing processes.
This surgery is tailored to the individual, focusing on the lower body to achieve a smoother, more natural contour. Anthony meticulously plans and performs each body lift with the goal of enhancing body shape and tone, resulting in a more youthful and uplifted appearance. The effects of a body lift not only improve the look of the body in clothing but also boost confidence and comfort in one’s skin.
Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
An Arm Lift, or Brachioplasty, targets the upper arms to remove excess skin and fat that can cause a drooping, sagging appearance.
This condition is often a result of weight fluctuations, ageing, or genetics. Anthony utilises advanced surgical techniques to reshape the upper arms, creating a more toned and proportionate appearance. The result is sleeker arms that reflect the hard work of your fitness and weight loss efforts, allowing you to wear sleeveless tops and dresses with newfound confidence.
Thigh Lift
A Thigh Lift is designed to remove excess skin and fat from the thigh area, resulting in smoother skin and more proportionately contoured thighs.
This procedure is especially beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss and are left with loose, excess skin that cannot be addressed through exercise alone. Anthony carefully assesses each patient’s specific needs to achieve the best aesthetic outcome, focusing on enhancing the overall balance and proportion of the legs. The thigh lift not only improves the shape and feel of your thighs but also increases comfort and confidence in everyday activities and clothing choices.
Fleur De lis Abdominoplasty
A Fleur De Lis Abdominoplasty or FDL Abdominoplasty is often sought by individuals seeking significant reshaping and tightening of the abdominal area after massive weight loss.
Fleur De Lis Abdominoplasty is distinct from a Traditional Tummy Tuck due to its unique incision pattern, resembling the shape of a fleur-de-lis. This approach allows for the removal of excess skin and fat both vertically and horizontally.
Mummy Makeover - Breast & Tummy Surgery
A Mummy Makeover is a personalised set of post-pregnancy surgeries designed to help bring back your pre-baby body.
It includes a combination of restorative procedures that can range from a Tummy Tuck and Breast surgery, Labiaplasty or Liposuction, depending on your concerns and goals.
Leg / Thigh Liposuction
Leg liposuction or Thigh Liposuction with Body Jet stands out as a good option for those looking to refine their silhouette and enhance the shape of their legs.
This procedure is subtle yet impactful and offers a tailored approach to fat reduction, targeting the stubborn areas that often resist traditional weight loss efforts.
Recovery after Body Surgery Procedures
The recovery process after body surgery depends on the extent and type of procedure undertaken. Common body surgeries like Liposuction, Tummy Tuck, and Body Lift surgery all require a significant rest period, with most patients needing to take time off work and limit physical activity to ensure proper healing. Compression garments are often recommended to reduce swelling and support the treated areas.
Anthony emphasises the importance of following a tailored recovery plan, which includes guidelines on managing discomfort, wound care, and gradually increasing activity levels. Swelling and bruising are normal and diminish over time, with full recovery and final results becoming apparent within several months. Regular follow-up visits are scheduled to assess progress and address any concerns during the recovery journey, ensuring patients receive the support they need every step of the way.
