Non-surgical slimming program Treatment in Al Shunnar Plastic Surgery Clinic
About the clinic
Non-surgical slimming programs at Al Shunnar Plastic Surgery Clinic in Dubai help patients contour their bodies without invasive surgery. The clinic is led by Dr. Buthainah Al-Shunnar, an American Double Board Certified surgeon with over 20 years of experience. This award-winning facility holds the Dubai Health Authority Award and was named Cosmetic Surgery Clinic of the Year in 2020.
Non-surgical slimming options
The clinic provides two primary methods to reduce fat deposits without an operating room. These techniques target areas that often resist diet and exercise, such as the chin or abdomen.
- CoolSculpting (cryolipolysis). This method uses fat freezing technology to target stubborn fat cells. It requires no downtime and allows patients to return to daily activities immediately.
- Fat-dissolving injections (lipolysis). This treatment involves injections that permanently destroy fat cells in specific areas. It is effective for the double chin, jawline, abdomen, flanks, and thighs.
Treatment protocols
Each slimming procedure follows a specific timeline to achieve visible changes. Patients typically require a series of visits to reach their aesthetic goals.
- Session requirements. CoolSculpting usually requires multiple sessions to reach the desired contour. For fat-dissolving injections, patients typically undergo 2-3 treatments for optimal results.
- Recovery. Since these options are non-invasive, there is no surgical recovery period. Patients can resume work or exercise shortly after the procedure.
- Target areas. Treatments focus on localized fat in the midsection, legs, and face.
Expertise and clinic standards
Dr. Buthainah Al-Shunnar is the first female Emirati plastic surgeon and trained at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. She is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and is certified by both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery.

Clinical Achievements and Patient Statistics
The clinic has treated over 10,000 patients. Its surgeons have collectively performed more than 25,000 procedures. The facility holds multiple professional recognitions, including the Dubai Health Authority Award and the UAE Business Awards for Cosmetic Surgery Clinic of the Year.
Specialists at the clinic hold prestigious credentials and training backgrounds. The surgical core includes doctors trained at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Key team members are board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery.

Surgical and Aesthetic Specialties
Plastic surgery services focus on breast, facial, and body contouring procedures. The surgical team performs several complex breast operations:
- Breast augmentation with fat transfer or implants
- Breast lift (mastopexy) with internal bra techniques
- DIEP flap reconstruction for post-cancer patients
- Breast reduction and gynecomastia surgery for men
Fat transfer procedures use gentle liposuction devices. These protect live fat cells before purification and reinjection.
Facial rejuvenation options include the video-endoscopic facelift. Surgeons use small scalp incisions and an endoscope to reposition midface tissues. This method takes two to three hours and aims for a softer look with minimal visible scarring. The clinic also offers otoplasty and rhinoplasty.
Body sculpting programs combine fat removal with skin-tightening techniques. Specialists perform tummy tucks (abdominoplasty) and lower body lifts. For patients with keloid or hypertrophic scars, the clinic provides cryotherapy, steroid injections, and laser surgery to flatten scar tissue.
Aesthetic medicine and dermatology services are led by Dr. Elmira Gesheva. This department manages skin rejuvenation through several non-surgical methods:
- Botox injections for forehead lines and crow's feet
- Dermal fillers including Juvéderm and Restylane
- RF micro-needling for skin firmness
- Chemical peels in light, medium, and deep variants
Dermatology services also include Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections and specialized acne clearing treatments.

The clinic uses specific laser and ultrasound platforms for aesthetic treatments. For hair removal, specialists use the LightSheer Duet Diode Laser by Lumenis.
