Tummy tuck and Lipo
I had wanted tummy tuck for a time, after 2 pregnancies, had left a large volume of excess skin.
Mr Omar Quaba was excellent from my initial consultation, he was approachable and I felt reassured, all the way to aftercare. I am delighted with the results. I would definitely recommend this surgeon.

What to expect
At Quaba, we believe in setting realistic expectations and helping you understand what influences successful liposuction results. Here’s what you should know:
- Surgical Expertise Matters: Liposuction is a delicate procedure that requires the skill and precision of an experienced surgeon. Our surgeons have extensive experience and a deep understanding of the techniques required to achieve smooth, natural-looking results.
- Treatment Area Variations: It’s important to recognise that different areas of the body respond differently to liposuction. Areas like the hips and outer thighs often yield more predictable results than areas with less elastic skin, such as the inner thighs. Our surgeons will assess your individual needs and advise you on the most suitable areas for treatment.
- Skin Quality and Elasticity: The quality and elasticity of your skin play a significant role in the final outcome of liposuction. Patients with good skin elasticity tend to see more noticeable improvements. If you have excess or stretched skin, our surgeons may recommend combining liposuction with other procedures, such as a tummy tuck, to achieve optimal results.
- Realistic Expectations: Liposuction is a body contouring procedure, not a weight-loss solution. It’s designed to refine your shape and address stubborn fat deposits. Our surgeons will discuss your goals and expectations to ensure you understand the potential outcomes and achieve a result you’re happy with.
