Aesthetics After Bariatric Surgery: Body Reconstruction Operation

What is Aesthetics After Obesity Surgery: Body Reconstruction Operation? 

Aesthetic surgeries performed after obesity surgery are done to address aesthetic problems such as sagging and looseness of skin and tissues that may occur as a result of excessive weight loss by patients. After obesity surgery, the body may lose its elasticity and the skin may sag, particularly in the abdomen, hips, upper arms, and chest areas. Procedures such as breast aesthetics, tummy tuck, arm lift, and liposuction are performed during the post-bariatric surgery process, also known as post-weight loss surgery, to correct sagging skin after weight loss and make the body tighter and smoother. These surgeries can increase patients’ self-confidence, help them improve their body shapes, and support them in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. However, suitable candidates for aesthetic surgeries after obesity surgery should be carefully selected. Patients should adopt a healthy lifestyle before the surgery and complete the weight loss process.

What is Post Bariatric Surgery?

Post-bariatric surgery is an aesthetic procedure where the sagging skin and tissues remaining after weight loss following obesity surgery are surgically corrected. Obesity surgery is a broad term that encompasses a series of surgeries performed to help individuals lose excess weight. However, after obesity surgery, weight loss in the body can cause sagging and loosening of skin and tissues. This can result in deformations in the body due to the excess skin and tissue. Therefore, post-bariatric surgery is performed to correct these deformations that occur after weight loss in patients.

Post-bariatric surgery may include procedures such as skin tightening, liposuction, and other procedures in different parts of the body such as the breasts, abdomen, hips, upper arms, and face. These procedures can help patients feel better, address aesthetic problems, and improve their quality of life. However, post-bariatric surgery should be performed at least 12 to 18 months after obesity surgery. During this time, the body shape should reach a certain point and stabilize. Additionally, since post-bariatric surgery carries a range of risks and potential complications, it is recommended that patients undergo a detailed examination with their doctors and weigh the risks and benefits.
