Whether you’ve spent hours in the gym, changed your lifestyle, undergone weight loss surgery, or begun medication, weight loss is a huge accomplishment that improves your health. Unfortunately, significant weight loss can lead to excess, sagging skin around the entire body.

At Allure Esthetic, Dr. Javad Sajan is one of the leading providers who uses skin removal after weight loss to create a better shape that highlights your new figure. Dr. Sajan specializes in skin removal after weight loss and can create a tailored plan for your surgery.

What Is Skin Removal After Weight Loss?

Skin removal after weight loss is a combination of procedures that eliminates excess skin from all body areas. This series of cosmetic procedures is used for patients who have lost a massive amount of weight and have excessive skin around their entire body.

Skin removal can affect many areas of the body, not just the abdominal region. It can remove skin from areas such as:

  • Stomach
  • Back
  • Arms
  • Thighs
  • Face

Benefits of Skin Removal After Weight Loss

Skin removal after weight loss is sometimes necessary to achieve your goals. Excess skin can lead to infections, hygiene issues, complications with mobility and overall confidence. Skin removal surgery can help restore your shape and may provide benefits such as:

  • Improved shape and appearance
  • Easier mobility when exercising or in daily life
  • Better hygiene
  • Lowers risk of infection or rashes
  • Improved fit with clothing
  • Improved confidence in your weight loss
  • Performed by the leading skin removal surgeon in Seattle

Procedures Used In Skin Removal After Weight Loss

Dr. Sajan can perform many different surgeries for skin removal after weight loss. Skin removal surgery is tailored to your specific needs and amount of skin so you can achieve your goals and the results you're looking for. Skin removal after weight loss can include procedures like:

  • Abdominoplasty: Skin removal can include an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck, which removes excess skin from around the lower abdomen. Many different types of tummy tucks work for varying degrees of excess skin.
  • Panniectulectomy: A panniculectomy removes overhanging excess skin from the pannus, an overhanging flap of skin that sits on the lower abdomen. A panniculectomy is common in skin removal after weight loss, as most patients struggle with an “apron-like” skin flap.
  • Breast Lift: A breast lift removes excess, sagging breast tissue and reshapes the remaining. It “lifts” the breasts into a higher location and can improve the height of the nipples for a more flattering appearance.
  • Arm Lift: An arm lift, or brachioplasty, removes loose, sagging skin from the upper arms.
  • Thigh Lift: A thigh lift is used for patients with excess skin around their outer and inner thighs. It removes the skin and pockets of fat for slim, shapely thighs.
  • Lower Body Lift: A lower body lift is commonly performed during skin removal after weight loss, as it eliminates excess skin around the buttocks, thighs, and lower abdomen.
  • Upper Body Lift: An upper body lift eliminates excess skin from the upper back, bra line, and breasts.
  • Liposuction: Liposuction is often added to skin removal after weight loss to remove stubborn pockets of fat around all body areas. Liposuction often enhances the results of skin removal surgeries.
