How to remove Belly Fat

Belly fat is a common concern, with many aspiring to achieve a flatter and smoother stomach.

Belly fat is typically caused by an excess of high-calorie foods and drinks, but it can also be caused by lack of activity, lack of sleep and stress.

Abdominal fat in particular is often made up of two types, subcutaneous fat tissue and visceral fat. If your belly fat is soft, then the fat is nearer the surface of the skin. If your belly is firmer to touch, then it may be caused by a higher level of visceral fat.

In most cases, a healthy diet and lifestyle can be a fantastic way to reduce all types of belly fat. However, liposuction is a highly effective method of reducing subcutaneous fat and getting a flat stomach when diet and exercise fail.

Abdominal liposuction

Liposuction is an effective form of tummy fat removal surgery. The procedure involves making small incisions in the skin where a cannula is inserted to suction out subcutaneous fat. At The Private Clinic, we offer a variety of different techniques including Micro Lipo and Vaser Liposuction for belly fat removal.

Depending on the technique being used, stomach liposuction is carried out with local anaesthetic for micro lipo or local anaesthetic and sedation for vaser liposuction.

Belly fat removal surgery

A tummy tuck for belly fat can be very effective at reshaping the abdominal area for a smoother and tighter abdomen. Also known as abdominoplasty, this procedure removes excess fat and skin from the area. It can also tighten loose muscles which may be contributing to a bulging belly.

A Brazilian tummy tuck is a great procedure for belly fat that uses an abdominoplasty to remove excess skin, liposuction to remove abdominal wall fat, tightening of the deep thicker tissue to create a tighter waist and repair of the abdominal wall muscles if required.

The procedure is performed under general anaesthetic, but most patients can return home in the hours following their procedure. Initial recovery time is around 2 weeks, by this point, patients can resume work and most daily activities, but exercise and heavy lifting may need to be avoided for at least 6 weeks.

Belly fat removal without surgery

CoolSculpting is a great option for people looking to reduce belly fat without surgery. The treatment, also known as fat freezing, uses controlled cooling to effectively freeze and remove stubborn fat cells from the abdomen through a process called cryolipolysis.

With over 17 million treatments performed worldwide, this FDA approved treatment is very popular. It has a clinically proven method of fat loss with up to 27% reduction in fat cells. There is no downtime and results are noticeable within 8-12 weeks.

Belly fat removal without surgery cost

The cost of CoolSculpting treatment starts from £345 per cycle. The cost of treatment will be dependent on the number of areas treated and the number of cycles required. For belly fat removal, you are likely to need more than one treatment cycle to achieve the best results.

The number of cycles required will be different from patient to patient which is why we provide free consultations with our CoolSculpting experts so they can assess the area and create a personalised treatment plan to help you achieve the best results.
