Your options for post-weight loss body contouring

Body contouring after weight loss is a highly customized surgery that often includes multiple procedures. During your initial consultation, Dr. Courtney will take the time to understand your aesthetic goals and your unique physique, explaining each aspect of the surgery and working with you to create a tailored surgical plan. During this consultation, you will have the time and freedom to ask all your questions and get the answers you need to achieve total peace of mind and confidence. The most common procedures that we include in post-weight loss body contouring include:

  • Tummy Tuck: This procedure for creating a tight, flat tummy is popular after pregnancy and weight loss. It tightens the abdominal muscles and removes excess skin and fat.
  • Arm Lift: Many patients have significant excess skin on the upper arm after massive weight loss, which can be corrected with an arm lift.
  • Thigh Lift: A thigh lift can treat loose skin on the legs. This procedure removes excess skin and fat from the thighs to restore smooth and natural-looking leg contours after weight loss.
  • Body Lift: This procedure addresses extra skin on your midsection, buttocks, and upper thighs.
  • Liposuction: You may have trouble spots with excess fat, even after a dramatic weight loss. Liposuction can remove this fat while shaping and contouring your body.
  • Facelift: Facelift surgery tightens and firms your facial structure by lifting facial tissues, re-draping the skin, and removing excess skin and fat.
  • Breast Lift: Sagging breasts are very common after weight loss. Your breasts are mostly fat tissue, and when you lose weight, they can shrink significantly. A breast lift raises breasts to a higher position on the chest and reshapes breasts to a youthful, plump shape. Some women opt to combine a breast lift with breast augmentation, as adding an implant can enhance your breast shape and restore lost volume.
  • Non-Surgical: We offer skin tightening procedures from InMode, including FaceTite and BodyTite, which achieve exceptional results. We also offer Morpheus8 treatments for skin tightening and tissue remodeling to maximize the results of your surgery after weight loss and beautifully resculpt your figure. These non-surgical treatments can be performed on their own or combined with a surgical procedure to maximize your results.
