Surgery After Weight Loss

Body contouring surgery after weight loss is recommended for patients who are now at their ideal body weight but are left with excess skin and tissue. Body contouring usually includes a tummy tuck procedure, liposuction, or lifting certain areas where excess drooping skin remains. San Diego body contouring expert, Dr. Sadrian, is one of the most respected board-certified plastic surgeons in the La Jolla area. He and his team are dedicated to providing you with the personal care you deserve and to ensure you have a comfortable and rewarding experience.

Who Is A Good Candidate For Body Contouring Surgery After Weight Loss?

Not everyone who loses a lot of weight will need surgery. Excess hanging skin comes about due to the amount of weight lost, along with genetic factors, age, and skin quality and flexibility. Men and women should consider body contouring to improve the following areas:

  • An overhanging apron of skin and tissue that mars the appearance of your lower abdomen.
  • Excess skin and tissue that droops and hangs on the upper arms, thighs, buttocks, or mid-section.
