Bariatric Surgery and Tummy Tuck
Carmel and Indianapolis, Indiana
With a vast number of people having bariatric surgery, plastic surgeons are now seeing a large number of patients presenting with severe skin excess problems as a result of successful weight loss surgery.
The most commonly seen problem is severe skin redundancy in the abdomen resulting in cosmetic and hygiene concerns due to large skin aprons.
Tummy tuck surgery can be successfully performed on these patients with dramatic improvements. Ideally, a patient should have achieved his/her weight goal and weight loss should be stable prior to proceeding with surgery.
When the skin apron involves mostly excess skin with minimal subcutaneous fat, a better, more predictable result can be obtained with fewer complications. Associated medical problems such as smoking, high blood pressure, and diabetes must be addressed prior to surgery.
