After Weight Loss Body Contouring Surgery
Following major weight loss, surgical body contouring can remove excess sagging skin and fat while improving the shape of the underlying supporting tissue. The result is a better-proportioned all-around (Tummy Tuck 360) appearance with smoother contours.
After Ozempic Weight Loss Body Contouring
Advanced body contouring can be an additional treatment after your Ozempic weight loss to help you to achieve your desired body shape. Dr. Lynch will target areas of fat and excess skin that may not have responded well to the weight loss alone. Contouring surgery can address all areas of the body and face and helps with skin laxity, which often occurs after taking Ozempic.
Procedures Performed:
- Excess Skin Removal
- Tummy Tuck
- Lipo 360
- Panniculectomy
A Panniculectomy is an after-weight loss procedure that removes the stretched-out, excess, and overhanging skin from your abdomen. This usually happens after a person undergoes massive weight loss, sometimes by using Ozempic or other weight loss medications. Your skin may hang down and cover your thighs and genitals. Excess Skin Removal Surgery removes this skin and helps improve your health and appearance.
Panniculectomy surgery is different from a general tummy tuck (abdominoplasty). Although both procedures remove excess skin and fat from the tummy, they correct different issues.
Panniculectomy
Removes the excess skin and fat from your lower abdomen after a significant weight loss. The main objective is to improve the health and appearance of your tummy by creating a smoother abdominal contour. Panniculectomies don’t tighten muscles, move the belly button, or address fullness in the upper abdomen. They can also be called lower body lifts or body-contouring surgery.
Sometimes, both surgeries are performed at the same time.
