Body contouring surgery in London offers a powerful way to address stubborn fat, loose skin, and areas that don’t respond to diet or exercise. At London Private Hospital, our suite of body contouring procedures is designed to help you achieve smoother, firmer, more harmonious curves with expert care and personalised plans.
Body contouring encompasses a range of surgical options, from removing excess fat with liposuction to tightening lax skin with abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), thigh lift or Vaser liposuction.
Whether your goal is a flatter stomach, tighter thighs after weight loss, or refining your silhouette, we tailor the combination of techniques for your unique body goals. See our page on Vaser Liposuction to learn about advanced ultrasound-assisted fat removal that offers precision and quicker recovery.
If excess fat is your main concern, then traditional liposuction or Vaser may be suitable. For those with loose or sagging skin especially after pregnancy, major weight loss, or age a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) or a thigh lift might be more effective.
We also published a helpful comparison in our blog “Tummy Tuck vs Liposuction: Which One Do You Really Need?” where we explore when combining techniques gives the best results.
Procedures are performed under anaesthesia in our state-licensed facility. Recovery times vary: liposuction or Vaser treatments often allow return to light work in about 1 week; more extensive procedures like full tummy tucks or thigh lifts require longer downtime. Scarring is carefully managed, and aftercare with compression garments and follow-ups are part of our standard protocol.
We bring together board-certified surgeons, modern surgical technology, and a patient-centred approach. If you’re considering body contouring surgery in London, book a free consultation with us to discuss which option aligns with your lifestyle, health, and aesthetic goals.
