Mr Ahmed Ibrahim is a Consultant Plastic Surgeon specialising in advanced body contouring procedures. After significant weight loss, pregnancy, or aging, excess skin and stubborn fat deposits can persist despite diet and exercise. Our comprehensive body contouring surgeries are designed to remove this excess tissue, tighten underlying muscles, and reveal your body’s true shape, helping you complete your transformation journey.
If you’re considering body contouring surgery, the first step is a confidential consultation with Mr Ibrahim. During this meeting, you’ll receive honest advice about what procedures can achieve for you and develop a realistic plan to help you feel confident in your own skin once again.

Liposuction
Not a weight loss procedure, but a contouring technique to remove stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise.
Areas Treated:
Abdomen and flanks (“love handles”)
Thighs (inner, outer, anterior)
Back and bra line
Arms, neck, and chin
Male chest (gynecomastia)
Techniques Offered:
Tumescent Liposuction: Standard fluid-assisted technique
Water-Assisted Liposuction: using body jet.
Fat Transfer (Lipomodelling)
Harvests your own fat via liposuction, purifies it, and reinjects it to add volume and improve contour in other areas.
Common Applications:
Facial Rejuvenation: Restores volume to cheeks, under-eyes, and lips
Breast Augmentation: Natural alternative or complement to implants
Hand Rejuvenation: Reduces visible veins and tendons
Correcting Irregularities: After other surgeries or trauma
Labiaplasty
The procedure involves carefully removing excess tissue from the labia minora to create a more symmetrical, contoured appearance and labia majora if required. The most common technique is the “edge resection” or “trim” method, where the protruding edge is removed and neatly sutured. An alternative “wedge technique” preserves the natural edge but removes a central wedge of tissue.
The Ideal Candidate
You may consider this procedure if you experience:
- Physical discomfort
- Irritation, chafing, or pain during exercise, cycling, or sexual intercourse.
- Difficulty with hygiene or clothing
- Problems with cleanliness or self-consciousness in tight clothing, swimwear, or leggings.
- Aesthetic concerns
- Dissatisfaction with the size, symmetry, or appearance of the labia, affecting self-confidence.
The best candidates are in good health, have realistic expectations, and are seeking surgery for their own personal reasons.
