Liposuction in Dubai

Liposuction in Dubai removes selected localised fat deposits to refine body contours. Dr. Bouraoui Kotti plans treatment according to fat distribution, skin quality, health and individual goals. It is not weight-loss surgery or a substitute for excess-skin removal. Suitability, technique, recovery and costs are discussed during an individual consultation.

Your treatment options

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is surgery that removes selected fat beneath the skin through small incisions using a suction cannula. Treatment is planned around the patient's anatomy and goals.

Liposuction vs Liposculpture

Liposculpture describes an emphasis on shaping contours and transitions between treated areas. It is not a guarantee of muscle definition or a separate solution for every body type.

Liposuction vs Tummy Tuck

Liposuction targets fat. A tummy tuck removes excess abdominal skin and may repair muscle separation. Read the liposuction and tummy tuck comparison when deciding which concerns to discuss at consultation.

Benefits and Limitations of Liposuction

Localised Fat Reduction and Body Contouring

Liposuction can reduce selected fat deposits and improve transitions between body areas. The achievable shape depends on existing proportions, skin quality and healing; symmetry or a particular silhouette cannot be guaranteed.

Why Liposuction Is Not Weight-Loss Surgery

Liposuction does not treat obesity or replace medical weight management. It also does not remove substantial loose skin. When skin excess is the main concern, options such as a thigh lift or abdominoplasty may be more relevant.

Who Is Suitable for Liposuction?

Weight Stability and Skin Elasticity

Assessment considers localised fat, a reasonably stable weight and skin that can adapt to the changed contour. Poor elasticity may limit the result. The ASPS candidacy guidance also highlights general health, realistic goals and avoiding smoking.

Medical Assessment and Reasons to Delay Treatment

Discuss medical conditions, previous surgery, medications, nicotine use and future pregnancy or weight-change plans. The surgeon may recommend further assessment, risk reduction or delaying surgery. Do not stop prescribed medicines without instructions from the treating team.

Which Areas Can Liposuction Treat?

Abdomen, Waist, Flanks and Back

Abdominal treatment may cover selected upper and lower abdominal fat, with the waist, flanks or back assessed as part of the same contour. Examination distinguishes fat beneath the skin from other causes of abdominal fullness.

Arms, Thighs and Other Selected Areas

Other areas may include the arms, thighs, inner knees, neck and chin. Each area requires its own assessment of fat distribution, skin quality and adjacent anatomy; listing an area does not establish suitability.

What Does 360 Liposuction Include?

360 liposuction describes circumferential planning around the torso, commonly involving the abdomen, flanks and back. It is not a standard package or promise to treat every area in one session. Confirm the proposed areas in the written plan.

Liposuction Techniques and Surgical Planning

Tumescent and Super-Wet Infiltration

These terms describe fluid-infiltration approaches used before fat aspiration. They differ in the amount of solution used relative to planned aspiration. The solution, fluid balance and anaesthetic plan require clinical supervision.

Power-Assisted Liposuction

Power-assisted liposuction (PAL) uses a mechanically moving cannula to assist fat removal. It is a tool within the surgical plan; the device alone does not determine contour quality, safety or recovery.

Skin Tightening or Combined Surgery When Appropriate

Skin treatment is assessed separately from fat removal. Ask whether any proposed adjunct can address your degree of laxity, what evidence supports it and what additional risks it carries. Combining liposuction with skin-removal surgery changes the operative scope and recovery.

Liposuction Recovery and Aftercare

Swelling, Compression Garments and Wound Care

Early recovery may involve bruising, swelling and discomfort. Follow the prescribed garment schedule, dressing care and medication instructions; drains, when used, need specific care. Swelling can temporarily obscure the contour.

Returning to Work, Exercise and Travel

Return to activity is gradual. Work duties, treatment extent and healing affect timing; lifting and exercise require clearance. Arrange help and transport, and discuss travel before booking surgery, including journeys from Sharjah or other emirates.

Follow-Up and When to Contact the Surgical Team

Leave with written follow-up arrangements and an urgent-contact number. Ask which wound or general-health changes require prompt review and how to seek emergency care. The ASPS recovery guide outlines questions about garments, activity and follow-up; your treating team's instructions take priority.

Liposuction Results and Long-Term Expectations

When Can Results Be Assessed?

Contour changes become clearer as swelling settles. Compare progress at follow-up rather than judging the operation from an early photograph. Before-and-after photographs illustrate previous cases and cannot predict an individual result.

How Weight Changes and Ageing Affect Results

There is no fixed ten-year result. Remaining fat cells can enlarge with weight gain, and ageing, pregnancy and skin changes can alter the contour. The ASPS results guidance explains why maintaining weight supports durability without guaranteeing an unchanged appearance.

Liposuction Risks and Safety

Potential Complications

Risks include irregular contours, fluid collections, infection, altered sensation, poor healing, injury to deeper structures, blood clots and anaesthesia complications. Revision treatment may be needed. Review the ASPS risk information alongside individual consent counselling.

Treatment Volume, Anaesthesia and Combined Procedures

There is no universal safe kilogram target. Total aspirate includes fat and fluid, so litres removed are not equivalent to kilograms of weight loss. Body size, health, treatment areas and combined surgery influence the plan and whether staging is appropriate. The ASPS safety advisory discusses these considerations.

Liposuction Cost in Dubai

Treatment Areas and Factors Affecting Cost

The cost depends on the surgical technique required, the complexity of the individual case, anaesthesia, facility standards, and whether procedures are combined. An accurate assessment requires an individual clinical evaluation.

What Should an Individual Quotation Include?

Confirm treatment areas, surgeon and anaesthesia fees, facility charges, tests, garments, follow-up and exclusions. An abdominal-only plan differs from circumferential or combined surgery. Compare equivalent written plans rather than advertised discounts; the ASPS cost guide explains why the surgeon's fee may not represent the full bill.

Consultation with Dr. Bouraoui Kotti

Bring your goals, medical history and questions about alternatives, recovery support and follow-up. Review Dr. Kotti's qualifications and experience and ask how the proposed plan addresses your anatomy. Verify current licensing and facility arrangements. Reviews, including Reddit discussions, can suggest questions but cannot establish suitability or predict results.

I could not be happier with my experience under the care of Dr. Kotti. I had an upper and lower blepharoplasty, an eyebrow lift, and a fat transfer, and the results have completely exceeded my expectations.From the very beginning, he was incredibly thorough and detailed. He spent ample time ensuring I understood every aspect of the procedures and the realistic outcomes I could hope to achieve. His precise surgical plan was executed exactly as intended.What truly sets Dr. Kotti apart is his exceptional post-operative care. I saw him for multiple follow-up appointments following the surgery for monitoring and support. I always felt cared for, safe, and entirely confident that he was striving for the absolute best results possible. I know I chose the best possible surgeon, and I am ecstatic with my transformation! Thank you so much Dr! I’ll be coming back next year

Frequently Asked Questions

Liposuction: Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers about planning, candidacy, recovery, and safety. An individual consultation is still required for medical advice.

Can liposuction treat loose skin?

Liposuction removes fat rather than excess skin. If skin elasticity is limited, laxity may remain after treatment. Examination determines whether fat removal alone, an additional skin treatment or skin-removal surgery is appropriate.

Is liposuction recovery painful?

Discomfort, bruising and swelling may occur during early recovery. Follow the prescribed pain-management plan and contact the surgical team if symptoms are worsening or differ from the instructions you were given.

When can I return to work after liposuction?

Timing depends on treatment extent, your work duties and healing. Desk work and physically demanding work may require different plans. Agree on activity restrictions and review arrangements with your surgeon before scheduling time off.

Can liposuction be combined with a tummy tuck?

It may be appropriate when both localised fat and excess abdominal skin or muscle separation need assessment. Combined surgery changes the risks and recovery; the surgeon may recommend separate procedures instead.

How many kilograms can liposuction remove?

There is no universal safe kilogram target. Liposuction is planned for contour change. Aspirate includes fat and fluid and is not equivalent to body-weight loss. The safe extent must be assessed individually.

Are liposuction results permanent?

Contour improvement may persist, but remaining fat cells can enlarge with weight gain. Ageing, pregnancy and skin changes can alter the result. Liposuction does not guarantee an unchanged shape over time.

How much does liposuction cost in Dubai?

The cost depends on the surgical technique required, the complexity of the individual case, anaesthesia, facility standards, and whether procedures are combined. An accurate assessment requires an individual clinical evaluation. Request an itemised quotation for your treatment areas and follow-up.

Can I travel home immediately after liposuction?

Discuss transport, an accompanying adult, follow-up and any need to stay nearby before booking. Travel clearance depends on the procedure and your recovery. Arrange access to the treating team if concerns arise.
