Body Contouring in Dubai
Some contours resist every diet and training plan; others change after pregnancy or significant weight loss. At Dubai Plastic Surgery, American board-certified surgeon Dr. John Shamoun offers a complete range of body procedures — from targeted sculpting to restorative and reconstructive surgery — each planned around your individual frame. Patients across the UAE and abroad choose our Dubai Healthcare City practice for discreet, precise care and results that look convincingly natural.
A full spectrum of body surgery, tailored to you.
Body Contouring Treatments
No two silhouettes are alike, so no two surgical plans should be either. Whether the goal is slimming a resistant area with liposuction, flattening the abdomen with a tummy tuck, or lifting and tightening after major weight change, Dr. Shamoun matches technique to anatomy with an emphasis on proportion and flow. Every operation at our Dubai practice is carried out under rigorous safety protocols, with recovery planned as carefully as the surgery itself — so the result endures and looks like it was always yours.

What Sets Our Practice Apart
Refined Silhouettes, Sculpted with Precision in Dubai
Body contouring rewards restraint as much as skill. Dr. Shamoun plans each operation around what will age well and move naturally — never chasing exaggerated shapes. That measured philosophy, combined with American board certification and the international standards of Dubai Healthcare City, has earned the trust of patients from many backgrounds, each with their own aesthetic ideal.

Your Questions, Answered
Curious about surgery?
Suitability is assessed individually at consultation, where Dr. Shamoun reviews your health, the areas you wish to change and what you hope to achieve. Broadly, the best candidates enjoy good general health, hold realistic expectations and are willing to follow their preparation and aftercare guidance closely.
Expect an unhurried, confidential conversation. Dr. Shamoun explores your concerns and goals, takes a careful medical history and examines the areas you would like to refine, then recommends the approach best suited to your anatomy. You are encouraged to ask anything — about the operation itself, the healing period or the risks involved.
It depends on the operation. Lighter procedures often allow a return to gentle activity within a few weeks, while larger surgeries such as abdominoplasty or a body lift ask for a longer, more gradual recovery. You leave with clear written aftercare, scheduled reviews and — if you are visiting Dubai — sensible guidance on when it is wise to fly home.
Often, yes. Pairing procedures — liposuction alongside a tummy tuck, or the combination approach of a mummy makeover — is a well-established way to achieve an overall transformation in one recovery. Dr. Shamoun will advise which combinations are safe and sensible for you at consultation.
Where incisions are needed, they are positioned along natural creases or within areas covered by clothing whenever the anatomy allows, and refined closure techniques help keep them fine. With diligent aftercare — including protecting new scars from Dubai's strong sun — they generally settle and fade well over time.
