Body contouring surgery reshapes and refines the body by removing stubborn fat, tightening loose skin and restoring natural proportions. At 111 Harley St. this includes VASER Liposuction, traditional Liposuction, 360 Degree Lipo, Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) and the Brazilian Butt Lift, each tailored to your anatomy and goals rather than weight loss.
Liposuction removes stubborn fat and suits patients with good skin elasticity, while a Tummy Tuck removes loose skin and repairs separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti). If you can pinch an inch of fat but your skin is firm, liposuction may be enough. If you have loose skin or muscle separation after pregnancy or weight loss, a Tummy Tuck is usually the answer. The two are often combined.
VASER Liposuction is an ultrasound-assisted technique that gently separates fat cells before removal, allowing more precise sculpting with less trauma to surrounding nerves, blood vessels and tissue. It typically means smoother contours and a more comfortable recovery than traditional liposuction, and it supports high-definition sculpting around muscle groups.
At 111 Harley St., Liposuction starts from £4,000, VASER Liposuction from £7,500, BBL from £12,000, Tummy Tuck from £12,500 and 360 Degree Lipo from £15,000. Your personalised quotation is confirmed after consultation and reflects the treatment areas and surgical plan. Finance options are available.
Yes, the fat cells removed by liposuction do not return. Your new contours are maintained with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Significant weight gain can enlarge the remaining fat cells, so patients are advised to be close to their ideal weight before surgery.
Most liposuction patients return to office-based work within one to two weeks, while a Tummy Tuck typically requires around two weeks off. Compression garments are worn during early recovery, strenuous exercise resumes after four to six weeks, and final results become fully visible over three to six months as swelling settles.
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) transfers your own purified fat from the waist, abdomen or back into the buttocks to improve shape, projection and proportions. At 111 Harley St., Dr Yannis performs every BBL using the Superficial Gluteal Lipofilling (SGL) technique, an internationally recognised approach that prioritises safety by placing fat only in the superficial layers.
360 Degree Lipo treats the full circumference of the torso, including the abdomen, waist, flanks and lower back, in one procedure. Treating these areas together as one aesthetic unit creates a naturally slimmer waistline and balanced proportions from every angle, rather than an isolated improvement in a single area.
Good liposuction candidates are close to a stable, healthy weight with localised fat that resists diet and exercise, and reasonable skin elasticity. Liposuction is a contouring procedure, not a weight-loss treatment. If loose skin is your main concern, a Tummy Tuck or combined approach may deliver a better result, which your consultation will confirm.
