Refining Weight Loss Results
What a wonderful achievement massive weight loss can be! The emotional and physical improvements can give men and women a new lease on life. However, the journey doesn’t always end as soon as you’ve lost those extra pounds.
As people gain weight, the skin expands to accommodate the larger body contours. If the weight is eventually lost, the skin may not be elastic enough to shrink along with the fat deposits, leading to a dropping or sagging appearance. The more dramatic the weight loss, the more dramatic the flaps of excess skin.
Fortunately, there’s a solution: plastic surgery after massive weight loss. Plastic surgery procedures to remove the excess skin (and refine any residual pockets of fat) can be personalized for your unique trouble areas. Many of our post weight loss patients choose some of the following procedures:
- For the body: tummy tuck, liposuction, upper back lift, arm lift butt lift, thigh lift, or a lower body lift (which combines a tummy tuck, thigh lift and butt lift)
- For breasts: breast lift or breast lift in combination with breast implants
- For the face: facelift or neck lift
If you’ve lost the weight, you deserve to enjoy your results. To find out more, contact us online or call Genesis Cosmetic Surgery and Laser Center at (314) 432-1772 to schedule your consultation with Dr. Tim Jones.
