Från det första mötet till dagens återbesök har allt känts mer än bara professionellt – det har varit varmt, tryggt och fullkomligt förtroendefullt. Dr. Per är inte bara en kirurg – han är som en konstnär med både precision och hjärta. Bara några dagar efter operationen kunde mina drän tas bort – och jag kände mig redan då lätt i kroppen, smärtfri och lycklig. Inte en enda värktablett behövdes. Det säger allt. Hans lugn, närvaro och lyhördhet har haft en lika läkande effekt som själva ingreppet. Det är som att han inte bara formar kroppen – han ser hela människan. Jag är så tacksam för det resultat jag fått – harmoniskt, vackert och ännu bättre än jag vågat hoppas. Och även om vi har en sista återkontroll om ett halvår, vet jag redan nu att jag kommer att minnas den här resan som något alldeles speciellt. Tack, Dr. Per – från djupet av mitt hjärta. Du har gjort mer än du kanske förstår. /Ewa ✨Publicerat på Google Friederike FacheTrustindex verifierar att den ursprungliga källan till recensionen är Google. I am absolutely thrilled with the results of my tummy tuck and breast lift! From the initial consultation to the aftercare, everything was handled with such professionalism and care. The entire team made me feel incredibly well taken care of, and I felt comfortable and supported at every step. The healing process went smoothly, and I’m very happy with how everything turned out – I feel great in my body. A heartfelt thank you to everyone involved!
What does tummy tuck surgery involve?
Abdominal liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove localised fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise. Through small incisions, a thin cannula is inserted to gently suction out fat cells. The method can be used on both the upper and lower abdomen and combined with liposuction of the love handles to sculpt a more cohesive contour.
Our liposuction techniques
We use scientifically proven and safe methods to remove excess fat and reshape the area around the stomach and waist.
Traditional liposuction
Ideal for removing localised fat deposits when the skin still has sufficient elasticity to tighten around the new contour.
Liposuction of the love handles and hips
A targeted procedure that is often performed on its own or in combination with a tummy tuck to create a flatter and more uniform contour across the entire waist area.
Tummy tuck and abdominal liposuction
If the main issue is a large amount of excess skin or separated abdominal muscles, liposuction alone is rarely sufficient. In such cases, a tummy tuck is recommended, which is very often combined with liposuction to achieve the very best anatomical result.
Gentle approach
Regardless of the area being treated, our specialists always use advanced liposuction techniques that minimise trauma to the surrounding tissue. By using very fine cannulas and a precise approach, we can effectively reduce bleeding and swelling during the procedure itself. This not only promotes a smoother and safer recovery, but is also crucial to ensuring that the millimetre-sized entry points heal optimally and remain as discreet as possible.
A clinic full of expertise
At The Faculty, you’ll have access to plastic surgery specialists with extensive clinical experience in body contouring and tummy tucks. Our practice is underpinned by medical safety, tried-and-tested methods and open communication. Whether your circumstances are best suited to classic liposuction, gentle VASER technology, skin tightening with Renuvion/laser or advanced liposculpture, we will guide you carefully through all the options. Our aim is to provide you with the knowledge you need to feel confident and well-informed from start to finish.
Cost of tummy tuck
The exact cost depends on how many areas are treated and whether the procedure is combined with skin-tightening surgery. During your consultation, you will always receive an accurate and transparent quote based on your individual anatomy.

Consultation before your operation
The first step is a consultation with a plastic surgery specialist. You choose whether you want to book an online appointment or meet us in person at the clinic. During the appointment, you will be given medical information about risks, current waiting times and which techniques are best for you.
You will receive a personalised treatment plan tailored to your body. Following the consultation, you will meet with the coordinator for further information.
The Evolution of You
Abdominal liposuction
Step by step
To ensure you feel confident and well prepared, we have a clear and reliable process in place, from your first visit right through to your final follow-up appointment. Here, we provide an overview of how an abdominal procedure is carried out, from start to finish.
01. Consultation
Medical assessment and choice of method
You will meet with a plastic surgery specialist who will assess your body fat distribution, skin quality and abdominal muscles in order to recommend the safest and most effective method.
02. Before your procedure
Preparing for a safe operation
Our coordinator will provide you with written instructions. It is an absolute medical requirement that you refrain from using any tobacco for four weeks before and after the operation to ensure proper wound healing.
03. The day of the operation
Safe care at the clinic
You will get changed at the clinic, and the surgeon will mark out the surgical area. The procedure is then usually carried out under general anaesthetic for your complete safety and comfort.
04. After the operation
Awakening and initial rest
You will be closely monitored in our recovery ward. Your stomach will be swollen and tender to the touch. We will fit you with a compression garment and ensure you receive adequate pain relief. You will be discharged and can go home the same day.
05. Recovery & healing
Self-care and convalescence guidelines
You should rest at home for the first few days and wear your compression garment around the clock. Light walks are fine, but you must avoid any form of exercise that raises your heart rate for at least four weeks.
06. Monitoring & results
Medical check-up and final assessment
After about a week, you will see a nurse for an initial check-up of the small puncture marks. After about six months, you will have a final check-up with your surgeon to assess how well the wound has healed.
Results of tummy tuck surgery
The results of tummy tuck surgery become increasingly apparent as the swelling subsides, often after 3–6 months. When reviewing before and after photos of tummy tucks, we can see how individual anatomical conditions affect the final result. Factors such as skin quality and the location of the fat (under the skin versus around the organs) are crucial to how well the skin tightens.
Our specialists in plastic surgery
The Faculty employs hand-picked plastic surgeons, several of whom are sought after nationally and internationally for their expertise in advanced body contouring. By ensuring that only qualified and highly dedicated specialists perform these precise procedures, we guarantee high medical standards, patient safety and anatomically sound results.

Plastic surgeryWho is eligible for tummy tuck surgery?
To be eligible for cosmetic surgery, you must be at least 18 years old and in good general health. A key factor in the outcome is the skin’s elasticity; liposuction requires that the skin is able to tighten up afterwards. In cases of significant excess skin or separated abdominal muscles, a tummy tuck is often recommended instead. It is also important to understand that liposuction is a body-contouring procedure, not a weight-loss method, and you should therefore be close to your ideal weight.
Complications and risks
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks involved. These may include general surgical risks such as bleeding, infection or a prolonged healing process. Abdominal liposuction also carries specific aesthetic and medical risks, such as unevenness in the skin’s contour, fluid build-up (seroma) under the skin, or temporary changes in sensation in the surgical area. Depending on the elasticity of your skin, there may also sometimes be a risk that the skin does not fully retract. During your consultation, the surgeon will carefully go through all potential risks, as well as how we at The Faculty work medically and preventatively to minimise them.
Other body contouring treatments
If liposuction alone is not sufficient to achieve the desired result, we offer advanced surgical procedures such as a full tummy tuck in Stockholm. We also perform body contouring procedures for the breasts, thighs and back, and we always assess your anatomy to determine which procedures can be safely combined under a single anaesthetic.

Payment guarantee and insurance
We make sure you are clearly informed about all aspects of your procedure and what is included in the cost of your tummy tuck surgery. For your absolute peace of mind, you are always covered by patient insurance. Whether your treatment plan includes classic liposuction, gentle VASER liposuction or a combination with laser skin tightening/Renuvion, we offer safe guarantees that cover your medical care and follow-up. For those who wish to finance their surgery in Stockholm, we also offer flexible instalment payment solutions.
Why consider tummy tuck surgery?
Many men and women find that fat deposits around the abdomen, hips or love handles are difficult to reduce, even with an active and healthy lifestyle. For example, it is very common to consider tummy tuck surgery after pregnancy, when the body’s tissue has undergone natural changes. Wanting to reshape the body’s contours is a personal choice that is solely about how you want to feel comfortable in your own body. We listen carefully to your reasons and then create a medically sound, realistic treatment plan that is entirely tailored to your body’s unique proportions.
Articles & news
Frequently asked questions about abdominal liposuction
Here we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions about abdominal liposuction
Is tummy tuck surgery different for men?
The procedure is the same, but anatomically speaking, men often store fat more centrally around the stomach and on the love handles. In men, so-called visceral fat (fat located deep within the organs) is also more common. Unfortunately, this internal fat cannot be removed by liposuction; we can only remove the superficial subcutaneous fat. This is carefully assessed during the consultation.
Will there be large scars after tummy tuck surgery?
No. The insertion points used for the cannulas are usually only three to five millimetres in size. These are positioned very strategically, often concealed in the navel or in natural skin folds, which means that the scars are extremely discreet once they have faded.
Is it possible to have liposuction on the stomach after pregnancy?
Yes, tummy tucks following pregnancy are a common procedure to address stubborn pockets of fat that have not disappeared. However, it is important to wait until the body has fully recovered and your weight has stabilised.
Can you have a tummy tuck and liposuction on the stomach at the same time?
Yes, it is a very common and frequently recommended combination. A tummy tuck removes excess skin and tightens separated abdominal muscles, whilst liposuction sculpts the waist and hips. Together, they produce the most comprehensive anatomical result.
When can you see the results of tummy tuck surgery?
The final shape gradually becomes apparent as the internal swelling in the tissue subsides. This is a healing process that requires patience, and the final result can usually only be assessed after six to twelve months.
Will the fat on my stomach disappear permanently?
The fat cells that are surgically removed are not regenerated. This means that the reduction in volume in the areas treated by liposuction is permanent. However, it is important to maintain a stable weight after the procedure, as any remaining fat cells in the area may increase in size if you gain weight.
Is there a risk of loose skin on my stomach afterwards?
How the skin tightens depends largely on age, genetics and your skin’s natural elasticity. If our specialists assess that there is a risk of excess skin, we often recommend a combination treatment involving skin tightening (Laser/Renuvion). In cases of significant excess skin, a tummy tuck may be the most suitable option for a firm result.
