What is a Post Bariatric Body Lift?

Sixty four percent of American adults are overweight or obese. Most of that sixty four percent will never lose the extra baggage and attain their ideal weight. Obesity causes horrendous health problems and leads to many emotional and mental scars. The use of gastric bypass surgery in the United States has soared due to this obesity epidemic. Gastric bypass surgery is highly effective, though risky. Most of those who have a bypass admit that it is well worth it. With great amounts of weight loss come a new set of problems though.

After a gastric bypass or natural weigh loss through diet and exercise, patients usually notice large amounts of wrinkle, flabby, empty skin. No amount of exercise or special cream will take those folds of skin away. As a result, many cosmetic procedures have been created. From breast lifts to arm tucks and tummy tucks to liposuction, nearly every surgery to fix this problem has been invented and implemented. Now there is an all-in-one type of surgery being offered: the post bariatric body lift.

The post bariatric body lift is sometimes called a belt lipectomy because of the incisions encircling the body the same way a belt would. A post bariatric body lift tightens and firms the skin on the thighs, buttocks, hips, groin, waist and abdomen. By removing excess skin and tissue, a much more youthful, attractive body contour is achieved.

Patients who receive post bariatric body lifts usually have large amounts of hanging, empty skin in several areas of the body. A more average appearance is the objective of this surgery. The best candidates for the surgery are at a steady weight and are non smokers.  The patient must be in good health and committed to diet and exercise. A good attitude is a must.  

If you have lost significant amounts of weight and are self conscious about the way your skin looks now, you should consult a plastic surgeon. In so doing, you can change your life for the better. Be sure to find a surgeon who has a keen aesthetic eye and has an excellent reputation. A board certified surgeon is imperative.
