Aesthetic surgery after weight loss isn't just about physical appearance; it's about improving your overall quality of life. Here are some of the benefits you can achieve by considering these procedures:
It’s very common for patients to suffer from unsightly excess skin after bariatric surgery, pregnancy or weight loss through diet and exercise. It occurs because your skin loses its elasticity as it accommodates your larger frame, and thus remains stretched out even once you achieve a smaller size.
If you’ve lost a substantial amount of weight and are suffering with excess skin, there’s a very strong chance that body contouring after weight loss may be in your best interest. To be considered an ideal candidate for plastic surgery after weight loss Houston plastic surgeon Dr. Sukkar requires that your weight be stable, as losing or gaining pounds in the future will affect your results. It’s also important that you have a positive outlook and realistic expectations, and are committed to leading a healthy lifestyle moving forward.
Your Houston post-weight loss surgery procedure will be completely customized based on which areas of your body are most affected by excess skin. In this section, we’ll review some of the most common surgeries that are performed for our post-weight loss patients, to give you an idea of what your unique procedure may look like.
The arms are highly susceptible to sagging skin after weight loss, making the arm lift one of our most popular procedures. When performed by a leading Houston plastic surgeon like Dr. Sukkar, the surgery can permanently eliminate drooping skin and unwanted flab, sculpting toned and slender arms you’ll be excited to show off.
Large folds of skin tend to plague the thighs after weight loss, creating an out-of-shape appearance that simply can’t be addressed through diet and exercise alone. When this occurs, a thigh lift with Dr. Sukkar can get rid of the unwanted volume while tightening the area, giving you the firm and sculpted thighs you previously could only dream about.
If your stomach is affected by sagging, excess and wrinkled skin, a tummy tuck as part of your post-weight loss rejuvenation may be in your best interest. In this case, Dr. Sukkar will expertly remove the unwanted volume and tighten your underlying abdominal muscles, revealing the flat and athletic abdomen you’ve always wanted.
In addition to excess skin, many of our Houston patients continue to struggle with stubborn pockets of fat that remain after weight loss. When this occurs, Dr. Sukkar may recommend liposuction to eliminate this unwanted volume and reveal a more attractive and streamlined silhouette.
After major weight loss, many men and women struggle with sagging, excess skin on the buttocks. When this occurs, a butt lift with Dr. Sukkar can sculpt and tighten this hard-to-treat area, giving you the impeccable physique you deserve.
