Post-Bariatric Surgery Case #215
- Post-Bariatric Surgery
Pictured is a 42 year old female patient who lost 125 lbs following RYB weight loss surgery. The patient was a good candidate with stable weight and decided to have the procedures at Dr. Kenkel’s Dallas location. Significant weight loss often leaves behind skin and tissue that has lost its elasticity. This can give a slimmer body an irregular look that belies the hard work that went into the weight loss. Body contouring surgery can reshape the skin and tissue to fit the body's new form. She is shown here one year following extended lower body lift and mastopexy. The extension on the abdomen vertically is necessary when this degree of laxity is encountered. A total of 4392 grams of tissue was removed (9.7 lbs). She is shown here 1 year following the procedure with pleasing results.
