The Avoca Clinic is a fantastic choice if you’re considering any form of cosmetic surgery, not just a tummy tuck. This clinic boasts a qualified team of surgeons and nurses who can perform all sorts of procedures like breast augmentation, liposuction, and of course, tummy tucks.

That said, each of their surgeons is also registered with the Irish Medical Council Specialist Register of Plastic Surgeons, with many years of cosmetic medical experience under their belt. So from this, you can rest assured in knowing that you’re in safe and capable hands.

We just love how this clinic values patient privacy and comfort. For one, their facilities are equipped with full hospital facilities and a suite of six private recovery rooms, which will come in handy if you require overnight recovery.

Also, they have two locations for you to choose from—one in Wicklow and one in Limerick. The former is tucked away in the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains, perfect for clients who value privacy. 

As far as their tummy tuck services go, it’s one of the most popular procedures in this clinic, actually. There are different types of tummy tuck procedures, such as mini tummy tucks, which will depend on the patient and what they require.

We’re a bit bummed to see that they sit on the expensive end of the spectrum though. Regardless, you have the option to pay for your procedure in instalments, thanks to their partnership with Humm.

You can know more about prices and the procedure by scheduling a consultation—online or onsite. And don’t worry, it’s free of charge!

We heard that the waiting list can be quite long though. From your initial consultation, expect about a month to 6 weeks before they can pencil you in for your procedure. 

Pros

  • Wide range of services
  • 2 locations available
  • Free consultation
  • Full hospital facilities
  • Instalment plans available
  • Discreet location
  • 3 licensed surgeons available
  • Open on Saturdays 

Cons

  • Relatively expensive
  • Long waiting list 
  • Wicklow location may be relatively far from city centre
  • Closed on Sundays

Fri: 9:00 am – 3:00 pm

Another clinic that isn’t new to our recommendations is Aesthetic Institute. They specialise in a range of aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, from rhinoplasty to tummy tucks.

Unlike our other entries, this clinic has only one consultant plastic surgeon—Dr. Colin Riordan. While this may mean limited availability in terms of schedules, the fact that he’s highly competent and active in the medical community makes up for it.

He’s listed in several medical associations, in fact. This includes the Irish Medical Council Specialist Register of Plastic Surgeons, International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, just to name a few. 

Dr. Riordan can do full tummy tucks, which involves repositioning the belly button and removing fat around it, and mini tummy tucks, which only targets the area below the belly button. 

It’s just a shame that they don’t perform the actual procedure in-clinic, though. On the plus side, the majority of surgical procedures and recovery are held in Blackrock Clinic—one of Dublin’s leading private hospitals.

Another major drawback we’re seeing is the price and payment scheme. They’re quite expensive compared to others, plus they don’t offer instalment plans. 

In other words, you’ll have to pay for everything before the surgery. 

However, we’re glad to know that their rate is already inclusive of many things including a liposuction procedure, hospital fees, consultant fees, anaesthetist fees, and post-operative appointments. 

On top of that, you’ll also have access to your plastic surgeon and other healthcare professionals 24/7 following your procedure. This tells us that aftercare is something that they take very seriously! 

Pros

  • Wide range of services
  • Licensed cosmetic surgeon
  • Prices inclusive of post-op care
  • 24/7 after-care access to doctor 
  • Central location

Cons

  • No instalment plans
  • Relatively expensive
  • Limited availability
  • Closed on weekends

Thurs to Fri: 9:00 am – 6:00 pm
Sat: 9:00 am – 5:00 pm

River Medical has been around since 2008, specialising in a wide array surgical and non-surgical cosmetic procedures. What caught our eye with this clinic is their relatively large team of medical specialists, among other things. 

Here, you’ll have access to 4 cosmetic surgeons, nurses, and even a doctor who specialises in non-surgical aesthetic medicine. 

That said, their team will present you with a myriad of options before deciding to go under the knife. For instance, they also offer coolsculpting—a non-invasive procedure that involves using a cooling device to freeze fat cells on certain areas of your body. 

So really, you can be certain that their surgeons will take you through the tummy tuck procedure in great detail. They’ll evaluate your current physical health and health history, ensuring you’re a suitable candidate for surgery.

We can confidently say that this clinic will take care of you from start to finish, and even beyond. While we can’t get a hold of their rates (since quotes depend on a lot of things), we’re glad to know that patients are entitled to 24/7 post-op care for life.

Yes, you heard that right. So if there are concerns even long after your procedure is through, you can always get their opinions free of charge.

We also like the fact that there are financing options available, allowing you to spread out costs if you think they’re a bit hefty.

One potential downside to all this is that the procedure and recovery will take place in a private general hospital. You’ll know your options regarding this during your consultation, which is also free of charge, by the way.

Pros

  • 24/7 post-op care for life
  • Instalment plans available
  • Open on Saturdays
  • Large team of doctors
  • Free consultation
  • Central location

Cons

  • Rates unavailable online
  • No information on partner hospitals
  • Closed on Sundays

It’s not the first time that Mr. Fuan Chan made it to our list. We first featured him for his rhinoplasty services, but we found other reasons to also highlight him for tummy tuck procedures, actually.

As you can see, Dr. Fuan Chan is the lone consultant of his private practice in Blackrock Clinic. He’s fairly active in the cosmetic medical community, with several memberships in prominent associations. 

While availability can take a toll here, we heard that he spares no effort in making sure that his patients get the best care possible, and that includes giving you several options to address your concerns about your abdomen.

What initially caught our attention though was his unique way of offering consultations. Here, you can expect a 3D visualisation of your “before and after” body.

In fact, they’re one of the very few clinics in Ireland to offer augmented reality consultations, which allows you to see changes in your body in real time. 

We think that this would also help you make an informed decision as to whether the procedure is right for you or not. You’ll also receive access to the images through email, which gives you plenty of time to decide. 

Of course, there are no guarantees that your body will look exactly like how the 3D simulation pictured it. Still, Dr. Chan will go over the risks and benefits of the treatment plan with you—and there’s no pressure to commit right away. 

You’ll have to see him to know more about instalment plans and aftercare, among many other things. 

Pros

  • Provides 3D simulation in consultations
  • Central location
  • Wide range of services
  • Specialises in Asian aesthetics

Cons

  • No mention if consultations are free
  • Lacks information about instalment plans and aftercare
  • Closed on weekends
  • Relatively limited availability

Customer Reviews

Absolutely amazing results

“Dr Fuan Chan, the Manager and Secretary are all the most genuine professional and caring people I have ever met. They care about your health and well being in every way possible. I have had a full tummy tuck procedure by Dr Chan with absolutely amazing results. This is an absolutely a life changing experience for me. I cannot thank them enough and especially Mr Chan for all his hard work I know I would never have gotten these results from anyone else. He is so passionate about his work and is not happy unless his patient is happy. Thank you so much for everything you have all done for me, it really does mean the world to me.” —Tanya Jane Harris, Google Reviews

Really pleased with the operation

“I am 3 weeks post op for abdominoplasty and I am recovering well. I have highly recommended Fuan to my friends and one of them has already booked a consultation. I am really pleased with how well the operation went and am looking forward to when the swelling has gone down to enjoy my wonderful new body. Many many thanks.” —Josephine Kane, Google Reviews

5. Richard Hanson

SERVICESTummy Tuck, Breast Reduction/Augmentation, Rhinoplasty, Facial Aesthetics, etc.
WEBSITEhttps://www.cosmeticsurgeon.ie/ 
ADDRESS9 Northwood Ave, Santry Demesne, Dublin
CONTACT DETAILS01 526 2235 | [email protected]
OPERATING HOURSMon to Fri: 8:00 am – 5:00 pm

Dr. Richard Hanson is an all-around cosmetic surgeon who can perform all sorts of procedures including breast augmentation or reduction, rhinoplasty, and tummy tucks. 

Like the majority of our entries, he also holds several memberships to cosmetic medical associations like the Irish Association of Plastic Surgeons and the British Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons.

He earns a spot here for one main reason: affordability. 

Of course, we’re not saying that tummy tuck procedures are generally affordable. But from what we’ve seen, he simply offers one of the best packages that offer real value for money in Ireland. 

Fees begin at €6,500, which already sits at the lower end of the industry average. On top of that, there are many inclusions in the package. 

This includes numerous consultations with Dr. Hanson until you’ve decided to push through with surgery, all surgical costs (procedure, aftercare, and overnight stay), and post-operative consultations.

Similar to our entry above, we’re glad to know that Dr. Hanson also offers 3D and 4D imaging during consultations.

You can either take your own 2D photo from your camera or phone and upload it to Dr. Hanson’s Crisalix website or they can take your “before” photo in the office during your consultation. 

Unfortunately, we couldn’t get any confirmation if their consultations require a separate fee or not. There’s also no information whether they allow instalments or not.

Another drawback we’re seeing here is that the clinic’s relatively far from the city centre. But we think that this clinic is still worth a visit, based on all that they offer!

Pros

  • Wide range of services
  • Affordable fees
  • Provides 3D simulation in consultations
  • All-inclusive package available

Cons

  • No mention if consultations are free
  • Lacks information about instalment plans
  • Closed on weekends
  • Relatively limited availability

Customer Reviews

So pleased with the results

“I had a Tummy Tuck with Doctor Hanson after having 3 sections and a lot of weight loss I was left with a big pouch of skin that no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t lose it. I am so pleased with how it went the results are amazing. My scar is so neat and low down. Dr Hanson and his team are so professional. I felt very comfortable from the moment I met him. The only regret I have is that I didn’t do it sooner it has done wonders for my confidence. I would highly recommend Dr Hanson.” —Shauna Lawlor, Google Reviews

Excellent surgeon

“I am now 3 months post breast reduction surgery and I couldn’t be happier. I am now more confident and can finally wear clothes that fit my body shape. Richard is an excellent surgeon and and at every consultation he made me feel completely at ease. I can’t thank Richard and his lovely and friendly secretary Ann Marie enough,I highly recommend Mr.Hanson to anyone who is interested in this procedure.” —Jodie Kenny McGrath, Google Reviews
