BODY PROCEDURES
ABOUT
BODY CONTOURING
Body contouring is a comprehensive surgical approach designed to reshape and enhance the body’s natural curves.
By combining multiple surgical procedures such as liposuction, tummy tuck, and fat grafting, this approach targets almost any part of the body, allowing for a comprehensive transformation that aligns with your aesthetic goals.
This procedure can help remove excess fat, tighten skin, and improve body proportions for a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing look.
A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE
THE BODY CONTOURING
PROCEDURE EXPLAINED
On the day of your surgery, you will check in at the surgical facility, where the admission process for your procedure will begin.
Here’s what you can expect:
ADMISSION
Upon arrival, you'll be greeted, admitted, and undergo a pre-operative assessment by clinic staff and your anaesthetist to ensure you are prepared for your procedure.
PREPARATION
After changing into surgical attire, Dr Frank will do any necessary preoperative skin markings and the nurses will accompany you to the operating theatre, where the anaesthetist will administer anaesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
PERSONALISED PROCEDURES
Depending on your customised plan, Dr Frank may perform a combination of procedures. This bespoke approach allows Dr Frank to achieve outcomes that align with your unique vision and aesthetic goals. Procedures that may be included are:
LIPOSUCTION
Liposuction to remove excess fat from targeted areas. Liposuction can target most areas and create a more proportionate and defined silhouette, contributing to an improved overall body shape.
TUMMY TUCK
Tummy Tuck to tighten abdominal muscles and remove loose skin. A tummy tuck results in a flatter and firmer abdominal profile, enhancing overall body contours and appearance.
BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT
Brazilian Butt Lift to enhance the shape and volume of the buttocks. The result is a fuller, more contoured backside, creating a balanced and aesthetically pleasing silhouette.
BREAST AUGMENTATION
Breast augmentation enhances the size and shape of the breasts using implants. By carefully selecting the appropriate technique and implant type, this enhancement can improve body symmetry and overall proportions.
MOMMY MAKEOVER
Mommy Makeover to address post-pregnancy changes in the body. The result is a rejuvenated and contoured figure, allowing women to regain their confidence and embrace their post-pregnancy body.
FAT GRAFTING
Fat Grafting to Breasts, Face or Calves. This procedure effectively improves volume and contour with the use of your own body fat, resulting in a natural-looking enhancement.
AFTERCARE
Following your procedure, you’ll be monitored in a recovery ward until you are ready for discharge. An overnight stay at the aftercare facility may be required for professional care. Depending on your needs, an additional overnight stay can be arranged for added comfort.

SUCCESS STORIES
“It was my first time having liposuction done and I had my buffalo hump removed. Needless to say I am very happy. From the service before surgery, the consultation, the procedure and post surgery, I am very happy. Prof Frank is understanding and sensitive to your needs. The result is more than I expected. I am really happy and would highly recommend them.”
“I’ve recently had Breast Augmentation surgery with Dr Graewe and the entire experience was seamless and incredibly amazing.

What a wonderful experience, I cannot recommend Dr Graewe enough, he’s definitely the BEST!”
