Are you summer body confident?

As the sun fights its way through the clouds to bless us with a sneak peek of what summer will be like, is it time to dust of those short shorts? The thought of lazy days in the sun, or beachy holidays away, are a dream for some and a nightmare for others. The idea of ‘summer body ready’ feels dated, at The Private Clinic they prefer ‘summer body confident’. If you know you look great and feel good in tighter clothes/showing more skin then own it! For those of us who need a little assistance getting there it’s good to know there are options. Access to healthy eating plans and work-out routines are abundant online and by word of mouth. It’s dull to keep repeating it but your mum was right; beauty starts on the inside. As well as that consultant plastic surgeon Miss Linda Fiumara encourages patients to look after themselves with a healthy active lifestyle to “get the most out of your results”. She finds that cosmetic surgery results are particularly effective on healthier bodies. But what happens when you’re eating a good diet, working out regularly and are still left with frustrating stores of fat in awkward places? You might want to consider a minimally invasive liposuction procedure to help you perfect your ideal shape.
