Your New Shape
What to Expect During Your Procedure
We ensure that every stage of your treatment is calm, professional, and entirely focused on your well-being. Your surgery starts with a detailed marking process to map out the precise areas for refinement and skin tightening.
Under the care of our expert anaesthetic team, you will remain comfortable while our specialists perform the necessary contouring to restore your body’s natural proportions.
Following the procedure, you will wake up in a dedicated recovery suite where our clinical staff will monitor your progress and fit you with supportive garments to ensure a smooth transition into your aftercare.
Managing Your Recovery
Is there any downtime?
Yes, as body contouring involves significant surgical refinement, a dedicated recovery period is essential for safe and optimal healing. Most patients require two to three weeks away from professional duties, depending on the extent of the procedure and the nature of their work.
- Expect some swelling and bruising, which is a natural part of the inflammatory response.
- Light walking is encouraged early on, but strenuous exercise must be avoided for six weeks.
- Specialist garments must be worn consistently to stabilise your new contours and reduce swelling.
- While initial changes are visible immediately, your final refined silhouette matures over several months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there any downtime after surgery?
Yes, most patients require two to three weeks off work to ensure safe healing. Strenuous exercise should be avoided for approximately six weeks to protect your new silhouette.
Will I have visible scarring?
We use meticulous, layered closure techniques to ensure incisions are as discreet as possible. Most scars are strategically placed within natural skin folds or bikini lines to remain hidden under clothing.
Where is the Lux clinic located in Bedford?
Our specialist clinic is conveniently situated for patients across Kempston and Biddenham. We are located in Bedford Hospital, providing a discreet environment for your consultations and follow-up care.
Can I combine multiple contouring procedures?
Many patients choose to combine treatments—such as a tummy tuck with liposuction—for a more harmonious result. We will assess your health and goals during your consultation to determine if a combined approach is safe.
How long do the results of body contouring last?
The results are generally permanent, provided you maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle. While the ageing process continues naturally, the surgical removal of excess tissue and skin offers a long-term transformation.
