Body contouring
Fat Grafting
Fat grafting (also known as lipofilling or fat transfer) is a body contouring procedure during which fat is harvested from one part of the body to deposit into another area in order to reshape or fill the contour.
-
Fat grafting can improve body symmetry and contour
It can be used as a permanent filler to augment certain areas, such as breasts and facial features
It can help improve self-confidence and psychological well-being
Fat grafting procedure can take several hours to do and the duration depends on the amount and position of fat needed to be moved. Liposuction removes fat from the area intended to be reduced in size, which is then processed and carefully injected into the target area.
Your recovery process may involve an overnight stay in the hospital, depending on the extent of your procedure. You will also be required to wear a compression garment while healing. The final results will show after about 6 months. The longevity of your result will depend on your lifestyle and ageing process. It is important to note that not all fat cells will survive the procedure, and you may not achieve your total expected size, shape, and volume in a single stage.

Thigh lift
A thigh lift is an aesthetic surgical procedure to tighten, contour, and lift the appearance of the skin of the thighs.
-
A thigh lift can improve the contour of the inner thighs following weight loss
It pairs effectively with liposuction
It can help to significantly improve self-esteem.
During a thigh lift, incisions are made around the groin area and, in some cases - towards the knee. Excess skin is removed and the remaining skin is tightened using suturing techniques to support the new, smoother contour.
A full thigh lift can take up to 3 hours to do and you will be required to stay in the hospital overnight. During recovery, you will need to wear a compression garment. A thigh lift is major surgery and you should expect a few weeks of downtime.

Arm lift
An arm lift, also known as a brachioplasty, is an aesthetic surgery to enhance the appearance of the inner aspect of the upper arm through fat and skin removal and contouring.
-
It removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm
It is effective at recontouring the area that has lost its elasticity due to ageing or weight loss
It can ease discomfort from sagging underarm skin.
Through an incision along the inner arm, the excess skin and fat are removed (sometimes combined with liposuction), tightening and lifting the remaining skin for a youthful, sculpted shape.
After an arm lift, you typically do not need to stay in the hospital overnight. During recovery, you may be required to wear compression garments to minimise swelling. Recovery will generally take 3 weeks, after which patients will be able to return to regular activities. The final results will show in 3-4 months as post-operative swelling subsides, and the results are long-lasting, provided a healthy lifestyle is maintained.
-
“Mr Chummun talked through all of the procedure details and even arranged for information to be sent to me following my consultation to read at home.
I am absolutely thrilled with the results already. I am so pleased I was able to find such a kind caring surgeon who listened to exactly what I envisioned and brought it to reality for me.”

Gynaecomastia Correction
Gynaecomastia correction surgery addresses gynaecomastia - a condition that results in enlargement of the male breast- by reshaping and reducing breast tissue to achieve a more masculine chest appearance.
-
Gynaecomastia correction can greatly improve self-confidence in your appearance, potentially improving your quality of life
It can increase comfort associated with chest skin and fat removal.
Gynaecomastia correction is often performed either through liposuction, excision, or both. An incision is made around the areola to remove excess glandular tissue, and beneath the breast to remove fat through liposuction. The result is a flatter, more masculine chest contour.
After gynaecomastia correction, you may need to stay in the hospital overnight. The results will be almost immediate, but it may take a few weeks for the swelling to subside. You will be required to wear a compression garment for 6 weeks after your surgery. The final results can be long-lasting, provided you maintain a healthy lifestyle and a stable body weight.

Scar Revision
Scar Revision methods encompass a spectrum of aesthetic and functional treatments and procedures to improve the appearance of scars. It is important to note that scar revision cannot eliminate a scar, but it helps improve its appearance.
-
A scar revision may help improve the range of movement and improve local function and quality of life
It can reduce pain associated with the scar
It can improve the appearance of scars caused by acne, burns, C-sections, cleft lip repair surgery, post-operative scars, piercings, infection, and scars from traumatic injuries
The exact process of a scar revision is highly dependent on the individual and the scar itself. The procedure may involve excising the scar and resuturing the tissues, or changing the alignment of the scar. Ultimately, the goal is to make the scar less conspicuous.
Recovery from a scar revision is dependent on the individual process but can take up to 3 months. Whether a night in the hospital is required also depends on the extent of the procedure.
