Tumescent liposuction at Al Shunnar Plastic Surgery Clinic in Dubai helps remove stubborn fat from areas like the abdomen, hips, and thighs. This procedure is performed by American Board-certified surgeons who trained at Johns Hopkins Hospital. The clinic holds an International Health Tourism Authorization and was named Cosmetic Surgery Clinic of the Year 2020 by the UAE Business Awards.
The clinic uses the tumescent method to make fat removal smoother and safer. Surgeons inject a sterile solution containing lidocaine and epinephrine into the target areas. This mixture helps numb the area and constrict blood vessels. This technique results in less blood loss and minimal pain during the healing process. The surgery usually lasts between 2 and 4 hours depending on the number of areas treated. Doctors use small, strategically placed incisions to reach fat deposits while keeping marks nearly invisible.
The surgical team includes highly qualified specialists who have treated 10,000+ patients. Dr. Buthainah Al-Shunnar is a Consultant Plastic Surgeon and the first female Emirati plastic surgeon. She is double board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. Dr. Kamal Sawan also serves as a Consultant Plastic Surgeon with a background as the Chief of Plastic Surgery in Oklahoma for over 10 years. Both Dr. Al-Shunnar and Dr. Sawan received their training at the prestigious Johns Hopkins Hospital.
This procedure treats fat deposits across many body parts, including:
The best candidates for this surgery are healthy individuals within 30% of their ideal body weight. It works best for those with firm, elastic skin and realistic goals. While it removes fat, it is not a weight-loss surgery but a body contouring tool.
Patients can typically return to work within a few days of the procedure. To help the skin adapt to new contours, patients wear a compression garment for 4 weeks. Swelling usually lasts up to 6 weeks before the final shape appears. The clinic provides a full aftercare plan that includes lymphatic drainage and scheduled follow-up visits for at least 4 weeks. This careful monitoring helps track the healing process and manage any swelling efficiently.

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:
Dermatology services also include Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections and specialized acne clearing treatments.
