"Reshaping and Rebirth After Obesity Surgery"

Obesity surgery can be an effective tool to take a significant step in the weight loss journey. However, aesthetic issues such as sagging skin, deformities, and contour deficiencies may arise after weight loss. This is where post-bariatric plastic surgery comes into play. These procedures are performed to shape the body after weight loss, correct sagging skin, and rebuild the patient's self-confidence.

Liposculpture After Obesity Surgery:

Liposculpture is a preferred procedure to aesthetically improve sagging areas after obesity surgery. It aims to enhance contours, especially in the hips, thighs, and abdominal area, achieving a slender waist and curvy lines.

●       Duration:
The operation time can vary depending on the area being treated and typically lasts between 1 to 4 hours.

●       Candidate Eligibility:
Individuals approaching their ideal weight are suitable candidates for liposculpture.

●       Results:
They are permanent but do not prevent future weight gain.

Abdominoplasty After Obesity Surgery:

Abdominoplasty is performed to remove excess, sagging skin and correct abdominal muscles. This procedure, performed through an incision along the cesarean section line, provides a tighter abdominal area and an aesthetic appearance.

●       Effectiveness:
It is effective for correcting excess skin and abdominal muscles.

●       Pregnancy Possibility:
Possible, but planning before the operation is recommended.

●       Results:
They are permanent but may vary after weight gain.

Arm Aesthetics After Obesity Surgery (Brachioplasty):

It may leave small scars, but they can fade over time.

●       Combination with Other Procedures:
It can be combined with other surgical procedures.

They are permanent but may change with the aging process.

Leg Aesthetics After Obesity Surgery:

It is permanent as long as a healthy lifestyle is maintained.

The patient's own fat tissue is used.

It is permanent depending on adherence to a healthy lifestyle.

●       Specific Weight:
Suitable for anyone with sufficient fat ratio.

These post-bariatric aesthetic procedures offer effective and safe options to shape the body after weight loss and provide patients with a more positive outlook on their new lives. However, as with any surgical intervention, it is crucial to consult with an expert plastic surgeon before considering these procedures. Personalizing a plan based on individual needs is critical to achieving the best results.
