Cosmetic Surgery After Weight Loss
If you have lost a large amount of weight, well done!
However, the reduction in body weight can leave excess/flabby skin, which leads means losing weight is quite a common reason to seek cosmetic surgery.
If exercise, skincare and diet are not achieving the results, surgery can be considered to lift and tighten the appearance and make the most of your body transformation.
As UK leaders in weight loss surgery, we have helped our patients lose many stones with procedures such as the gastric band. The results of weight loss surgery are very dramatic as our patient stories show giving massive health benefits as well as a slimmer body shape.
Julie's Story
Julie Stansfield, pictured, is just one of our weight loss patients. She has lost over 9 stone with a gastric bypass, but was left with loose skin around her middle and saggy breasts. She chose a tummy tuck and a breast uplift to achieve the stunning shape you can see in this photo.
She shares her story in this video interview, which was filmed at The Hospital Group after her tummy tuck procedure.
Cosmetic Surgery After Weight Loss Procedures
The most popular cosmetic surgery procedures after weight loss are:
- Breast uplift - this procedure removes excess skin from each breast to lift the bustline, giving a more youthful appearance. In some cases, this can be combined with an implant (breast augmentation) where the size needs extra volume to be restored
- Tummy tuck - This operation involves careful incisions to remove surplus skin and fat deposits. The results are very striking
- Arm lift - this procedure removes the excess or flabby skin left with dramatic weight loss. The thigh lift is a similar procedure where this area needs attention
If your requirements are more sophisticated, rest assured our expert cosmetic surgeons offer the full range of post-bariatric surgery procedures to enable our patients to complete their transformation, including:
- Body lift
- Buttock lift
- Thigh lift
If you have lost significant weight, then it may be a bespoke programme of surgeries to deal with the excess skin and give you the lean, smooth silhouette you deserve to show off your new shape.
