What is an upper blepharoplasty?

An Upper Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin (and sometimes small amounts of fat) from the upper eyelids. Over time, the eyelid skin can become loose and heavy, which can create a tired appearance and, in some cases, even affect vision.

By carefully removing this excess tissue, the eyes can appear brighter, more open, and more refreshed โ€” while still looking completely natural.

This is a very common and popular procedure here at Coppergate Clinic, often performed as a day case with a relatively straightforward recovery. Scars are discreetly placed within the natural crease of the eyelid, meaning they are usually very well hidden once healed.

If you are concerned about heavy or drooping eyelids, an upper blepharoplasty can be a very effective solution.

If you would like to book a consultation, please contact the Reception team at Coppergate Clinic who will be happy to assist.

What is an abdominoplasty?

An Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen while also tightening the underlying muscles.

It is particularly beneficial for patients who have experienced pregnancy, weight loss, or changes in skin elasticity, which can leave loose skin or a separation of the abdominal muscles (diastasis recti). Through this procedure, the abdominal wall can be strengthened and the contour of the stomach significantly improved.

There are different types of abdominoplasty โ€” including mini, full, and extended techniques โ€” and the right approach will always depend on your individual anatomy and goals.

The aim is to create a flatter, firmer, and more proportionate abdominal profile, with results that look natural and in keeping with your body.

A detailed consultation is essential to assess suitability, discuss recovery, and plan the most appropriate treatment for you.

If you would like to explore whether an abdominoplasty is right for you, consultations are available at Coppergate Clinic โ€” please contact the Reception team who will be happy to help.

Liposuction remains one of the most effective ways to target stubborn areas of fat that donโ€™t respond to diet and exercise.

Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and contour specific areas of the body such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and under the chin. Itโ€™s important to understand that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but rather a way to refine body shape and improve proportions.

Using advanced techniques, fat is carefully removed to create a smoother, more defined contour โ€” always with a focus on achieving natural-looking results that suit your individual anatomy.

In some cases, liposuction can be combined with other procedures, or used alongside skin tightening treatments depending on your goals and skin quality. A detailed consultation is essential to assess suitability and create a personalised treatment plan.

If youโ€™re considering liposuction and would like to explore your options, consultations are available at Coppergate Clinic. Please contact the Reception team who will be happy to assist.

From consultations to procedures and follow-ups, itโ€™s always a pleasure to meet so many patients and help guide them through their journey. No two days are ever the same, and thatโ€™s one of the things I enjoy most about my work.

If youโ€™re thinking about treatment or would simply like to explore your options, the first step is a consultation.

If you would like to come and see me, please contact the Reception team at Coppergate Clinic who will be happy to help with enquiries and appointment availability.

Renuvion is an exciting advancement in body contouring that Iโ€™m often asked about in clinic.

Renuvion liposuction combines traditional fat removal with advanced skin tightening technology. Using a combination of helium plasma and radiofrequency energy, Renuvion works beneath the skin to contract tissue and improve skin firmness โ€” something that standard liposuction alone cannot always achieve.

This makes it particularly useful for patients who not only want to reduce stubborn areas of fat, but also improve skin laxity at the same time. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, and neck.

One of the key benefits is that it can deliver noticeable tightening with smaller incisions and less invasive techniques compared to more extensive surgery. However, itโ€™s important to understand that itโ€™s not a replacement for procedures like a tummy tuck in cases of significant excess skin โ€” the right treatment always depends on the individual.

As with all procedures, a detailed consultation is essential to assess suitability, discuss expected results, and ensure a safe and tailored treatment plan.

If you would like to find out whether Renuvion liposuction is right for you, consultations are available at Coppergate Clinic โ€” please contact the Reception team who will be happy to help.

Another busy day here at Coppergate Clinic โ€” and thatโ€™s exactly how I like it.

One of the things I enjoy most about my work is how varied each day can be. From consultations, to operating in theatre, to follow-up appointments and stitch removal โ€” no two days are ever the same.

Most importantly, itโ€™s always a pleasure to meet such lovely patients along the way. Being part of each personโ€™s journey, from first consultation through to recovery, is something I never take for granted.

One of the most popular operations I perform here at Coppergate Clinic is body contouring, and in my latest podcast I talk all about it. From liposuction to advanced technologies like VESA and Renuvion, there are now more ways than ever to achieve natural, long-lasting results โ€” with patient safety always at the heart of what I do.
In our conversation, I share insights from my recent training in 360 high-definition liposuction, which looks at the whole body rather than just one area to achieve balanced, harmonious results. I also explain the differences between traditional and VESA liposuction (which uses ultrasound for more precise fat removal) and how Renuvion can help tighten skin after fat reduction.
We also dive into the consultation process, setting realistic expectations, the importance of post-operative care, and the costs associated with these advanced technologies.
