About Dr. Sahar Al Kazzaz
Dr. Sahar Al Kazzaz is a Plastic and Body Contouring Surgeon at Novomed in Dubai with around 30 years of experience. She earned her medical degree in 1988 and her Board degree in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (FICMS) in 1995, then completed a postgraduate diploma and an MSc in Aesthetic Surgery through the University of London. Based in the UAE since 1999, she is described by Novomed as the country’s first full-time female plastic surgeon and has performed more than 15,000 plastic and reconstructive surgeries. Liposuction is a central part of her body contouring work, including patients who need further shaping after massive weight loss. She plans each procedure around the patient’s anatomy, goals and cultural background, and follows her patients closely through recovery. She is a member of the Emirates Plastic Surgery Society.
Techniques Used
Novomed’s surgeons choose the technique to suit the area treated and the patient’s skin quality:
- Traditional (tumescent) liposuction: fat removal through small incisions with a numbing and fluid solution
- Body-Jet liposuction: a gentle water-assisted technique
- Laser liposuction: laser energy to loosen fat and help tighten skin
- VASER Hi-Def liposuction: ultrasound-assisted sculpting for more defined contours
Additional Services
- Body: tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and body lifts after massive weight loss
- Breast: cosmetic breast surgery, her main subspecialty
- Face: facial rejuvenation
About The Clinic: Novomed Jumeirah 1
Dr. Sahar consults at Novomed Jumeirah 1, a plastic surgery and dermatology centre in a villa behind Jumeirah Plaza. The centre is part of the Novomed group, which runs specialised centres and hospitals across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. Novomed says its surgeons build each plan around an in-depth discussion with the patient and the “honesty policy” the group is built on. Patients meet the surgeon here for the initial consultation, review their options for liposuction and other body contouring, and return for follow-up visits after surgery. Novomed lists hundreds of patient reviews for the Jumeirah 1 centre.

About The Clinic: Novomed Specialized Surgical Hospital
Novomed performs its liposuction as a day-case procedure, and the group’s Specialized Surgical Hospital in Umm Suqeim is its Dubai facility for elective surgery. The hospital is dedicated to plastic, reconstructive and cosmetic procedures, so patients are not mixed with emergency or general admissions. Novomed says liposuction normally takes one to three hours under local or general anaesthesia, with patients up and walking the same day. Treated areas include the abdomen, arms, back, buttocks, hips, chest, thighs and chin. The group also says its surgeons have carried out more than 60,000 liposuction procedures.
- Day-case surgery, usually 1 to 3 hours
- Local or general anaesthesia
