Procedure
Completing a weight loss journey with bariatric surgery is a major accomplishment. However, many patients still find themselves unhappy with their physical appearance after losing weight. Excess fat is replaced by issues such as loose, sagging skin and stretch marks. Stubborn deposits of fat can also remain, leaving behind a lumpy, unattractive bodily contour. Body lifting procedures after bariatric surgery can dramatically improve your appearance by revealing a slim, shapely figure.
Our skilled surgeons in plastic and reconstructive surgery offer a variety of customized postbariatric cosmetic procedures, including:
Facelift: The face is one of the first areas to change due to weight fluctuations. A facelift can improve jowls, remove excess skin, and provide you with a toned facial appearance.
Breast lift: Weight loss can result in cosmetic changes in the breasts, including volume loss and sagginess. A breast lift removes sagging skin and restores the position of the breasts.
Extended Tummy Tuck: Our doctors can give you the coveted hourglass waistline you desire with tummy tuck surgery, which tightens the skin and underlying muscles of the abdomen.
Full-body lift: Our surgeons are trained in upper, lower, mid-body, and full-body lifts. A full body lift involves the contouring of the entire body, with a primary focus on areas such as the buttocks, back, tummy, thighs, arms, and breasts.
Ideal Candidate
Your candidacy will be determined by one of our highly trained surgeons after evaluating several key factors. If you are a candidate, the surgeon will craft a customized treatment plan for you. You will be able to express your cosmetic goals with your Cosmetic & Bariatric Surgery Center surgeon, who is committed to helping you look your very best safely.
Generally, candidates should enjoy good health, be non-smokers, and be at a stable weight that has been maintained for at least six months. Additionally, if a post-bariatric procedure is right for you, there are some activities you may need to do to prepare for surgery. This may include starting a high-protein diet and stopping the use of certain medications, such as blood thinners. Our surgeons will provide you with additional information regarding what you can expect before, during, and after your procedure.
