Body Contouring Surgery After Weight Loss

You thought you’d look great after losing weight, but you’re disappointed with sagging, wrinkled skin. Dr. Garcia performs body contouring surgery to help reshape your appearance. After weight loss surgery, many patients in the Saratoga Springs and Glens Falls region become discouraged to find loose skin and stretch marks where they thought they would see a slimmer, tighter profile.

Body contouring plastic surgery can change all that. Body contouring is not a single procedure – it’s a collection of procedures tailored to your unique body needs, with the goal of achieving a slimmer profile and tighter skin tone.

Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Juan Garcia is a trusted partner for many weight loss patients. Request a consultation by calling the office at (518) 793-0475 today.

Why Would You Need a Plastic Surgeon After You Lost Weight?

As you shed pounds, fat cells can shrink dramatically. The problem is, your skin is not nearly as elastic. Many people who have lost a lot of weight are left with an unwelcome reminder of their heavier days: loose, droopy skin and leftover fat deposits in undesirable places. Body contouring can complete your weight loss transformation by removing excess skin and fat in:

• Upper body areas, by combining procedures such as breast lift, breast augmentation, liposuction and arm surgery
• Mid body areas, by combining procedures such as tummy tuck, liposuction, buttock lift, and thigh lift
• Facial areas, by combining procedures such as facelift, brow lift and eyelid surgery

Your Body Contouring Procedure

Local surgeon Dr. Garcia tailors his procedures to his patients’ unique needs. For instance, some weight loss patients are looking to slim their face or reshape sagging breasts, while others need to address sagging skin around the stomach or thighs. Some surgeries may be combined but expect more than one surgery to achieve a safer, healthier outcome.

Dr. Garcia has received training in techniques to tighten skin and minimize the appearance of scars. He understands that weight loss patients often have special health considerations, and he’ll take time to ensure you’re ready for surgery in every way. After your procedure, you’ll check back with Dr. Garcia to ensure proper healing and address any concerns you have.

At your consultation, Dr. Garcia can answer your questions about body contouring or any of the other plastic surgery procedures he performs in the Saratoga and Glens Falls region, including breast surgery, tummy tuck or liposuction.

Please note that these procedures require smoking cessation and elimination of all nicotine products for least 8 weeks before and after cosmetic surgery.
