Procedures

Body, breast & face — one standard.

Every procedure below is performed personally by Dr. Paulo Michels at Elyzee Hospital, Abu Dhabi — with plans tailored to your anatomy and honest guidance from the first consultation.

Body

LiposuctionLiposuction permanently removes fat cells from stubborn areas — abdomen, flanks, back, arms and legs — that resist diet and exercise.→Tummy TuckA tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) removes excess skin and fat and repairs separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), restoring a flat, firm abdomen after pregnancy or weight loss.→MILA — Scarless Tummy TuckSignatureMILA (Minimally Invasive Lipoabdominoplasty) delivers the results of a full tummy tuck — 360° liposuction, endoscopic repair of muscle separation and plasma skin tightening — through the same tiny incisions used for liposuction, with no hip-to-hip scar.→Mommy MakeoverA mommy makeover combines breast surgery — a lift, implants or both — with a tummy tuck and liposuction in a single anaesthetic and one recovery, addressing the changes of pregnancy and breastfeeding together.→Reverse Tummy TuckA reverse tummy tuck (reverse abdominoplasty) removes loose skin from the upper abdomen — between the ribs and the belly button — by lifting it upwards through an incision hidden in the fold beneath the breasts, instead of pulling it down to a scar above the pubic area.→Body Contouring & Body LiftBody contouring and body lift surgery reshape the figure after major weight loss, pregnancy or ageing by removing loose skin and stubborn fat across the abdomen, waist, thighs, arms and breasts.→Rib RemodelingSignatureRib remodeling is a minimally invasive, scarless procedure that narrows the waistline by gently adjusting the angle of the lower ribs — no bone is removed.→Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) uses your own fat — harvested by liposuction from the abdomen, flanks or thighs — to reshape and enhance the buttocks.→Buttock ImplantsButtock augmentation with implants uses a silicone prosthesis to add volume and projection — the solution when a patient is too thin to have enough fat for a Brazilian Butt Lift.→BodyTite & J-PlasmaBodyTite, Argon Plasma and J-Plasma are minimally invasive skin-tightening technologies that use radiofrequency or plasma energy to firm skin and refine body contours without traditional surgery.→Lipedema TreatmentLipedema is a chronic, painful disease causing disproportionate fat accumulation in the legs — and it does not respond to diet, exercise or bariatric surgery.→360 Tummy Tuck (Circumferential Abdominoplasty)A 360 tummy tuck, or circumferential abdominoplasty, removes loose skin and fat all the way around the waist — front, flanks and lower back — through a belt-shaped scar, and repairs the abdominal muscles.→Fleur-de-Lis Tummy TuckA fleur-de-lis tummy tuck is an abdominoplasty that adds a vertical midline incision to the usual low horizontal one, so loose skin can be removed both from top to bottom and from side to side.→UGRAFT — Ultrasound-Guided Fat Grafting for Muscle DefinitionSignatureUGRAFT is ultrasound-guided fat grafting for muscle definition: fat harvested during VASER or HD liposuction is purified and injected, under real-time ultrasound, into and around selected muscles — the rectus abdominis six-pack, obliques, pectorals and deltoids — to add volume and shape.→Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)An arm lift (brachioplasty) removes loose, hanging skin and excess fat from the upper arms — often called bingo wings — after weight loss or with age.→Thigh Lift (Thighplasty)A thigh lift (thighplasty) removes loose, sagging skin and excess fat from the thighs, most often the inner thighs after major weight loss.→

Breast

Breast AugmentationBreast augmentation (augmentation mammoplasty) enhances the size, shape and symmetry of the breasts using medical-grade implants or fat transfer.→Breast Reduction & LiftBreast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue and skin to relieve chronic back, neck and shoulder pain and restore a lighter, lifted, proportionate shape.→Mastopexy with ImplantsMastopexy with implants (augmentation mastopexy) lifts and reshapes sagging breasts while restoring lost volume with silicone implants in a single surgery.→Breast Implant Removal (Explant)Breast implant removal — explant surgery — takes out breast implants permanently, with or without the surrounding scar-tissue capsule, and can be combined with a breast lift or fat transfer so the breasts keep a natural shape without implants.→GynecomastiaGynecomastia surgery removes enlarged male breast tissue — dense gland, excess fat or both — to restore a flat, masculine chest contour.→Internal Bra TechniqueThe internal bra is a surgical technique — not a product — that builds a support structure inside the breast during a lift, augmentation, reduction, revision or explant, so the reshaped tissue or implant is held in position and sagging returns far more slowly.→Fat Transfer Breast AugmentationFat transfer breast augmentation enlarges the breasts with the patient's own fat instead of an implant: fat is harvested by gentle liposuction, purified and injected in many fine layers into the breast.→Auto-Augmentation Breast Lift (Breast Lift Without Implants)An auto-augmentation breast lift is a breast lift without implants: instead of discarding the lower breast tissue, the surgeon moves it upwards as a flap beneath the breast to restore upper fullness, then supports it with an Internal Bra built from the patient's own tissue.→

Face

Deep Plane FaceliftA deep plane facelift repositions the deeper structures of the face — muscle, fat pads and skin — as one natural unit, instead of pulling the skin tight.→Mini FaceliftA mini facelift lifts early jowls and mild lower-face sagging through a shorter incision hidden around the ear.→FaceliftA facelift restores the jawline, midface and neck by repositioning the deeper facial structures rather than simply tightening skin.→RhinoplastyRhinoplasty reshapes the bone, cartilage and skin of the nose to refine its proportions while keeping natural balance with the face, and can also correct breathing problems such as a deviated septum.→BlepharoplastyBlepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) removes excess skin and fat pockets from the upper or lower eyelids to correct sagging, puffiness and a tired look — in some cases even improving the field of vision.→Neck LiftA neck lift rejuvenates the neck and jawline by tightening the platysma muscle, repositioning the deeper tissue layers and removing excess skin and fat — correcting sagging, vertical bands and the so-called turkey neck.→Eyebrow LiftAn eyebrow lift is a cosmetic procedure that elevates or repositions sagging eyebrows to rejuvenate the upper face.→Double Chin LiposuctionDouble chin liposuction (jowl liposuction) removes excess superficial fat from the lower face and neck through small hidden incisions, creating a more defined jawline and improved profile.→OtoplastyOtoplasty (ear correction surgery) reshapes protruding or misshaped ears by adjusting the cartilage through an incision hidden behind the ear.→Permanent Filler RemovalPermanent fillers — biopolymer, liquid silicone and PMMA — cannot be dissolved; they can only be surgically removed.→Migraine SurgeryMigraine surgery — peripheral nerve decompression — treats chronic migraine that has not responded to medication by releasing the compressed sensory nerve at a confirmed trigger site.→
