Cosmetic surgery is no longer as stigmatised as it used to be – so many British patients can now achieve the body they have always wanted without fear of judgement or shame. However, there are incredibly long waiting lists for NHS treatments and private treatments are very expensive. This can be a huge problem for people who are desperately seeking their dream body in the United Kingdom. It can seem like a hopeless endeavour for so many British people with no other option but to join a waiting list with thousands of people in front of them.
However, if you find yourself trapped in a similar situation, never fear, there is a solution that can save you time and money on private consultations and NHS waiting lists. Cosmetic surgery treatments in Spain are significantly cheaper and performed by credible doctors for half the prize.

Tummy Tucks in Spain (Mini Tuck Included)
First of all, what is a tummy tuck? Otherwise known as an abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck is a surgery that will remove all loose and excess skin from a patient’s abdomen area. This procedure also helps to tighten the abdominal muscles of the patient for a smaller and slimmer look. Sometimes liposuction is also included in the treatment which will shape the abdomen area into the desired shape. If you make sure to keep a healthy weight after the procedure then the results will last for a long time, which in turn, will ensure that your mental health will not suffer.
Sometimes it can be hard to tell when a tummy tuck is the right option for you. So thankfully there are many tips and signs out there to help you decide which surgery is right for you. Keep reading to see if you or a loved one are a prime candidate for the tummy tuck procedure:
- If you have loose skin around the stomach area after a major weight loss
- Any slack or loose skin around the abdomen and groin after a pregnancy and child birth
- Any sort of scarring or stretched skin from any prior surgeries, accidents or procedures
Do any of these symptoms apply to you? If the answer is yes then a tummy tuck is definitely the right decision for you. Now, just because you are British, does not mean that you have to wait and pay for the procedure in the UK. Why not consider going to Spain?
There are many clinics and hospitals in Spain that will perform the procedure for British patients at a discounted price. Some people do not know this, but there are actually several different types of tummy tucks at different prices. The mini tummy tuck is listed with a minimum price of $3,500 and a maximum price of $4,200. An extended tummy tuck is more pricey and has a minimum listing of $5,300 and a maximum price of $5,700. Finally, a complete tummy tuck has a minimum price of $4,800 and a maximum price of $7,500 in Spain.
Some notable plastic surgeons from Spain include Doctor Francisco Giraldo Ansio and Doctor Maria Isabel Ruiz from the Vithas Xanit International private hospital in Malaga.
Also, men who have lost weight or had gastric bypass surgery like the Mini Tummy Tuck because they want to have a tighter stomach afterward. Another good thing about the mini tuck is that there is less scarring because of a smaller incision and less time to heal.
Liposuction in Spain
Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure to remove excess and unwanted body fat. This is by simply sucking out small areas of fat that cannot be lost through traditional methods such as exercise and diet. Popular areas include the buttock, thighs, stomach and thighs. This is to shape the body and generally speaking the results will be long lasting. To be clear, this is not a service that is typically carried out through the NHS, so British patients will either have to go privately – and doing so overseas can help save money and time.
There are many well renowned clinics in Spain that will perform liposuction for British patients for a deducted price. Barcelona is a top destination for these kind of procedure. There is a general catch-all price for this kind of surgery in Spain, regardless of where about on the body you would like to be seen. This price can be anywhere from $2,800 to $13,800 – but that is the absolute highest price you will have to pay overseas.
Suction Lipectomy (Post-Bariatric Surgery)
This procedure can be called gastric bypass surgery in a sense as they are almost the same procedure. Much like the rest of the procedures in this article it is a process of removing fat tissue. This is the kind of surgery that has been performed for years and is completely safe.
Spain is a hot destination for these kinds of cosmetic surgeries and the suction lipectomy is no different. There are roughly around nineteen gastric bypass clinics available in Spain and it is best to choose the one that you think will be the right one for you and your body. Generally speaking the catchall price for a procedure such as this one will be anywhere from £11,340 to £18,720. Remember this is your body and you want to make sure that you are not sacrificing care or comfort when you pick your clinic.
Liposuclpture in Spain
It can be easy to get confused between liposuction and liposculpture – they do sound remarkably similar and they are quite similar procedures. The point of liposculpture is to reduce problematic areas of subcutaneous fat to sculpt a slimmer and shapelier body. This is a more precise procedure as opposed to liposuction, which simply sucks out problematic pockets of flesh.
Travelling to Spain is relatively easy and you can be seen by an expert for a small fee of $5,900 which is a great price for such a delicate and specialised procedure. In Spain you will be given the best of care by doctors who are the top of their field.
