Body Lift Surgery After Massive Weight Loss

Excess skin and fat of the abdomen, flanks, back, buttocks, and thighs may be the result of weight loss, age, or heredity; substantial weight loss is by far the most common cause, whether achieved by a bariatric surgical procedure or by diet and exercise alone. For you to have achieved such a remarkable feat in losing all of the weight, it is disconcerting to now be troubled by all of the excess skin (and often fat deposits) that remain. During the lower body lift procedure, excess fat is removed, and loose or hanging. skin is trimmed and tightened, however the lower body lift procedure involves much more than just the mere removal of excess skin and fat. The lower body lift is performed to produce a natural contour and a beautiful cosmetic outcome requiring the combination of technical expertise, artistic perspective, and meticulous attention to detail that our surgeons passionately and professionally brings to every individual.

The Best Candidates

Those patients who desire a more youthful appearance by correcting stretched out sagging skin. Patients with excess folds of skin after weight loss that still consider themselves fat. Candidates for body contouring are people who are looking for improvement, not perfection in the way they look. If you're physically healthy, psychologically stable, and realistic in your expectations, you may be a good candidate.

THE TUMMY TUCK SURGERY

Abdominoplasty or Tummy tuck

                           Women and men who have loose abdominal skin and fat that is concentrated in the abdomen can benefit from Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty. Sometimes these conditions are inherited. In other instances, substantial weight loss may cause abdominal skin to become flaccid. Abdominoplasty also can tighten muscles that have been separated and weakened by pregnancy. The procedure may somewhat improve the appearance of stretch marks, especially those located below the navel. The tummy tuck procedure, or abdominoplasty, removes the excess skin and tightens the muscles in the abdominal wall to achieve a tight and flat stomach. This means a more aesthetic, much healthier looking body-contour and, not to mention, a considerable improvement in self-confidence. Stretch marks, which are very common after childbirth and weight gain or weight loss, are considerably reduced by tummy tuck. The incision scar is usually hidden in the bikini-line, which is why this operation brings a perfectly satisfactory result in most cases. A flat stomach is one of the most highly desired features of many people, and tummy tuck surgery is the way to achieve it.

                          Tummy tuck surgery has progressed in recent times, and now there are a variety of different tummy tuck procedures that can help you achieve the body you have always wanted. Are you unsatisfied with the shape of your tummy? Have dieting and exercise failed to give you a flat tummy? Tummy tuck surgery can give you the shape you desire.

Cosmetic Surgeon Evaluation For Tummy Tuck

                           Tummy Tuck is a surgical procedure which is also known as abdominoplasty. It is a procedure where excess skin is removed from the abdomen. The tummy tuck procedure helps tighten the skin and return it to a flatter, smoother, youthful look that will not only make you look good, but it will also make you feel good about yourself and your newly tummy tucked appearance. Your Cosmetic or plastic surgeon may examine your abdomen while you are standing as well as lying down. Your skin tone and the degree of loose skin in the abdominal region will be assessed. Your surgeon also will evaluate the amount of excess fat in your tummy and the condition of your abdominal muscles.You should come to the consultation prepared to discuss your medical history. This will include information about any medical conditions, drug allergies, medical treatments you have received, pregnancies, previous surgeries and medications that you currently take. It is important for you to provide complete information.

                          Tummy tuck surgery, as an aesthetic (cosmetic) procedure, generally is not covered by insurance. In some instances, however, a patient may have a hernia and not just a spreading of the abdominal muscles. Insurance reimbursement may be available for that portion of the procedure that is not cosmetic.

Techniques for Labia Minora Reduction: An Algorithmic Approach

                           Abstract Background Aesthetic reduction of the labia minora has gained popularity, and a number of different techniques have been described. Each procedure has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. However, no algorithm has been defined for pairing the degree of deformity with the optimal surgical procedure. Methods Patients were stratified into one of four groups based on labial size. 
                           The surgeon choose one of three reduction techniques based on the degree of labial hyper-trophy and the patient’s aesthetic preferences for labial edge color and contour. Three reduction techniques were used including the edge excision technique, the inferior wedge resection technique, and deepithelialization reduc-tion labioplasty. The success of aesthetic reduction was evaluated, as was symptomatic relief. Results The 12 procedures performed included five deepithelialization techniques, four edge excision tech-niques, and three inferior wedge resection techniques. As reported, 92% of the patients were ‘‘very satisfied” with their aesthetic and functional results. The complications were minimal, with three patients experiencing minor wound healing difficulties that resolved spontaneously. One patient who underwent the edge excision technique was ‘‘not satis-fied” and complained of over reduction.

Labia minora reduction to be useful in different clinical situations. A novel algorithm is described for matching the optimal surgical technique for each patient based on her degree of hypertrophy and aesthetic goals.
