Why have body contouring surgery in Manchester?
Losing a significant amount of weight creates big differences in your body shape, health, confidence and self-esteem. However, many people who have lost dramatic pounds are left with excess skin in many areas of their bodies and may have some stubborn pockets of fat.
In addition, excess skin can create issues with chronic rashes, fungal infections, irritation and odours. This is why many people choose to have cosmetic procedures to remove this excess sagging skin, remove fat and tighten underlying support tissue.
Body contouring after massive weight loss or bariatric surgery combines multiple surgeries to remove excess skin on your abdomen, thighs, neck and back, tighten underlying tissues, lift breasts and smooth and contour your figure.

WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY
I had three procedures done with Mr Siddiqui, lip lift, breast implants and labiaplasty. I did a lot of research into surgeons and Mr Siddiqui stood out to me online he has a great profile and amazing reviews. My first consultation went really well, I was completely at ease, Mr Siddiqui explained everything thoroughly. A few weeks later I was in hospital having my procedures done, I was very well looked after and everything went smoothly. The aftercare was great. Between appointments Mr Siddiqui was only a WhatsApp or text message away, he was in touch everyday to begin and if I had any concerns he always replied quickly. I’m 6 weeks on from my procedures now and I am healing well and feeling great. I am very happy with my results. I can’t recommend Mr Siddiqui enough.

So glad I chose Dr Siddiqui, after searching for a qualified surgeon he stood out from the rest! He sounded perfect for my breast reduction. When I went for my consultation he made me feel at ease and explained everything very clearly. He was so nice and suggested a size that would suit my frame. His secretary Rachel, clinic team and staff were also very nice! Surgery went really well. Dr Siddiqui gave me his mobile number to text or call if I needed anything. The morning after surgery he messaged me to see how I was, which I thought was lovely. My recovery was really good, I was back at work a week later. I am very pleased with the result, just love my new size. Dr Siddiqui is an excellent surgeon and I highly recommend him.

FAQs
Find your answers to the commonly asked questions below.
How much weight you lose with body contouring surgeries after dramatic weight loss will depend on which surgeries you choose to have and how much excess skin is removed. It is important to note that these cosmetic procedures are not for major weight loss, but rather to remove sagging skin, tighten underlying supportive tissue and achieve smoother contours.
Yes, body contouring can help remove loose skin if you have had a major weight loss and now have excess fat and skin. Our plastic surgeons can discuss which procedures will be best to help you and your unique body type.
There are different risks depending on how many and what type of body contouring surgeries you are undertaking. Specific risks for each type of surgery will be discussed with Mr Siddiqui prior to having any procedure performed.
How long it takes to recover post your contouring will depend on the surgery performed and if you had multiple procedures at the same time. Mr Siddiqui will discuss what to expect for recovery when confirming your surgery.
Yes, there may be some scars. However, our plastic surgeons aim to keep incisions thin and situated where they are not highly visible. This is not always possible, depending on the surgery performed so please discuss any concerns you may have with Mr Siddiqui when you meet him for your consultation.
You can have many different areas treated, from your facial skin, neck, abdominal muscles and stomach, to breasts, buttocks and upper arms. It all depends on where your loose skin and excess fat are located and what you wish to achieve from your cosmetic procedures.
Usually, surgery performed for body contouring as part of a weight loss journey are elective cosmetic procedures, therefore the NHS will not cover the costs. However, if excess skin is causing serious health problems there may be exceptions. It is best to discuss this with us at Breast & Body Clinic and we can help provide advice and resources on the NHS.
Most plastic surgeons will recommend you wait 12 – 18 months after bariatric surgery or dramatic weight loss to allow your body time to adjust and maintain a stable weight before undergoing surgery for body contouring. You can discuss timeframes for surgery with Mr Siddiqui and the friendly team at Breast & Body Clinic, Manchester.
