Abdominoplasty
An abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying connective tissue and muscles. This creates a smoother, more sculpted appearance and can significantly improve abdominal tone and contour.
Often chosen by patients who have lost a significant amount of weight, undergone pregnancy or noticed changes from ageing, the procedure is tailored to your individual needs. Mr Khan combines advanced muscle repair techniques with precision contouring – and, where beneficial, high-definition liposuction – to achieve a natural, balanced result that complements your body shape.

I came to Mr Khan after a failed journey with other surgeons. It was worth every single second of time, energy, travel, and cost. I am beyond thrilled with my results, but the biggest change you will see, is not just the surgery I’ve had, but the smile it’s left on my face.
