Body Contouring
Improve body shape after weight loss or pregnancy with customized contouring procedures.
Body contouring addresses loose skin and residual fat that remain after major weight loss, pregnancy, or ageing. Depending on your goals, it can combine skin tightening, fat removal, and muscle contouring in one personalized plan.
Candidacy & Benefits
You may be a good candidate if:
- You have loose or excess skin following significant weight loss
- You want to restore body shape after pregnancy
- You are looking for a customized combination of contouring techniques
Key benefits
- Firmer, more proportionate body shape
- Treatment plan tailored to your specific areas of concern
- Renewed confidence in clothing and everyday movement
How Body Contouring is performed
A full-body assessment to identify which areas need skin tightening, fat removal, or both
A staged surgical plan is agreed, since larger transformations are often safer split across sessions
Excess skin is excised and underlying tissue is tightened through carefully placed incisions
Liposuction may be combined in the same session to refine adjacent areas
Drains and compression garments are placed to support healing and reduce fluid build-up
Preparation & things to know
How to prepare
- Reach and maintain a stable weight for at least a few months before surgery
- Optimize nutrition and protein intake to support wound healing
- Arrange extended help at home, as recovery is longer than single-area procedures
- Discuss with your surgeon whether your plan needs to be staged over more than one surgery
Possible side effects & risks
- Longer-than-average swelling and bruising given the larger treatment area
- Visible scarring along incision lines, which fades but does not disappear
- Temporary drains to manage fluid build-up in the first week
- As with any major body surgery, risks of infection, delayed healing, or asymmetry
Every surgery carries some risk. Your consultation with Dr. Muhammad Ali will cover how these apply specifically to you.
