Post Weight Loss Surgery – Birmingham, Alabama

After extensive weight loss, the loss of significant amounts of fat causes the redundant skin to sag. Common sites for this to occur are the abdomen, arms, thighs, breast, and face. The excess skin must be excised in order to improve the appearance of these areas.

If you have lost a significant amount of weight and would like to know more about cosmetic post weight loss surgery, contact our office in Birmingham , Alabama today. We can help you schedule a consultation with our plastic surgeon to discuss your surgical options.

Post Weight Loss Surgery Procedures

Our Birmingham, Alabama patients who have lost a significant amount of weight through surgery are often faced with the difficult decision of undergoing corrective surgery in order to fully benefit from losing the weight. Dr. Beckenstein will take the time to help each patient choose the post weight loss surgery that is right for them.

Panniculectomy and abdominoplasty are the procedures of choice to improve the appearance of the abdomen.

A brachioplasty can correct the excess skin in the upper arms and a thigh lift can improve the contours of the inner and/or outer thighs. A circumferential or belt lipectomy may be indicated for patients with redundancy of the lower body including, the thighs and gluteal areas (buttocks).

Each of these post weight loss surgery procedures leaves a lengthy scar which is usually worth the trade-off of removing the redundant tissues. Dr. Beckenstein will carefully evaluate you and determine which type of post weight loss surgery is best suited for you. Contact our office in Birmingham, Alabama today to schedule your body contouring consultation with Dr. Beckenstein.
