Achieving the ideal physique can be tough, especially if you have excess loose skin after significant weight loss or have lost muscle tone through ageing or a lack of exercise.
However, modern body contouring procedures offer dramatic improvements in bodily appearance by reducing fat deposits, defining muscles, and tightening or removing loose skin.
Non-surgical and surgical methods can be combined to achieve stunning results.
At Coppergate Clinic, we provide lift surgeries, liposuction, and the latest ultrasound and radiofrequency technology to smooth and sculpt the body’s contours.

Achieving the ideal physique with body contouring for men at Coppergate Clinic
Body contouring can be achieved with a combination of treatments designed to reshape and enhance the body’s appearance, often by targeting stubborn fat deposits and improving muscle definition.
These treatments include both cosmetic surgery and non-surgical cosmetic procedures, offering men a range of options for achieving their desired physique.
Body contouring surgery
Our patients can choose from a range of invasive surgical interventions to remove excess fat and skin and improve the contours of various aspects of the male body, giving a more sculpted appearance.
Gynaecomastia surgery
Many men suffer from an enlargement of the male breast tissue, gynaecomastia, often as part of the ageing process.
Gynaecomastia is a procedure to remove excess fat and glandular tissue from the chest, creating a more masculine chest.
Abdominoplasty or tummy tuck
During the tummy tuck, excess fat and loose skin are removed from the abdominal area, and the underlying muscles are tightened to create a flatter body profile.
Lift procedures
Arm lifts, thigh lifts, and even a circumferential body lift are often performed after substantial weight loss to remove excess skin.
Liposuction
Liposuction is considered the gold standard treatment for body contouring and stubborn fat removal.
The technique uses a suction tool to remove excess fat cells from specific areas. The advanced liposuction technology we use is so precise that it can contour individual muscles, giving a more defined, sculpted appearance.
Newer methods like VASER liposuction and Power Assisted Liposuction are less invasive than traditional liposuction, resulting in less bruising and a faster recovery time.
Liposuction is often used as an adjunct to other surgical procedures to achieve optimal results.
Non-surgical male body sculpting procedures
Ultrasound and radiofrequency lipolysis can also be used for eliminating excess fat cells.
Exilis Elite is a non-invasive treatment that combines ultrasound with radiofrequency to liquify fat cells and tighten the skin.
Am I a good candidate for body sculpting?
If you are unhappy with your body but in good overall health, you may be well-positioned to start your body-sculpting journey.
You will have an initial consultation, during which your surgeon will listen to your concerns and examine you.
All invasive procedures carry the potential for complications, so your health will be checked, and a complete medical history will be taken to determine your eligibility.
Before confirming that you are a good candidate, your surgeon will ensure that you are fully informed and have realistic expectations for the procedure.
At the end of your consultation, your surgeon will be able to recommend the right procedure to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
Are male body contouring procedures an effective solution for obesity?
Many people incorrectly believe that fat removal procedures are a cure for obesity, but it would be dangerous to remove large quantities of excess fat cells in this way.
In fact, the best results are achieved in patients who are at or near their ideal weight but have stubborn pockets of fat resistant to diet and exercise.
Body contouring procedures will make your body more toned and your muscles more defined, but they will not make you shed large amounts of weight.
Is body contouring for men the same as body contouring for women?
The technology and surgical process may be the same, but the aesthetic goals are often different.
The male body stores fat cells differently from the female body, with pockets of fat typically accumulating around the abdomen, flanks, back, and chest.
Male body contouring often focuses on creating the ideal physique – a V-shaped torso with a more masculine chest and well-defined muscle tone.
Women typically prefer body contouring procedures that improve the appearance of their upper arms, thighs, buttocks, and hips.
Women’s aesthetic goals often include a curvier profile with an emphasis on smooth lines, sculpted curves, and a defined waistline.
Maintaining Your Results
Men seeking to preserve the benefits of their body contouring procedures will need to commit to a healthy lifestyle with plenty of exercise and a careful diet that excludes high-fat and processed foods.
