Address Loose, Hanging Skin
Significant weight loss often leads to excess skin that no amount of exercise can remove. We safely eliminate it to reduce chafing, discomfort, and irritation.

What to Expect from Surgery

Before Surgery

01
Your consultation will include a full assessment of your skin elasticity, remaining fat volume, and areas of discomfort. We'll review your weight loss timeline, nutritional status, and medical clearance. Depending on your goals, we may recommend staged procedures or a comprehensive single-session approach.

During Surgery

02
Procedures are typically performed under general anesthesia and may take 3–6 hours or more depending on the extent of surgery. Common areas addressed include the abdomen (panniculectomy or tummy tuck), thighs, upper arms, chest, back, and flanks. Liposuction is often combined to refine final contour.

After Surgery

03
Most patients return home the same day or stay overnight if multiple areas are addressed. Recovery varies by procedure, but you can expect 2–4 weeks of downtime and gradual improvement over several months. Swelling and temporary numbness are normal. We’ll support you with detailed recovery plans, compression garments, and follow-up care every step of the way.

Insurance & Financing

The Plastic Surgery Center participates in a wide range of insurance plans, including Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield and Cigna.

Before scheduling an appointment, please contact your insurance carrier to confirm your policy coverage.

Financing options or payment plans may be available through third-party healthcare financing institutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a candidate for skin removal or post-weight loss body contouring?
If you’ve reached a stable weight and are bothered by sagging, excess skin, you may be a strong candidate. Most patients wait at least 6 months after major weight loss to allow skin and weight to stabilize.
Will my results be permanent?
Yes, results are long-lasting — but significant weight gain or future pregnancy can affect outcomes. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key to preserving your results.
What areas can be treated?
Common areas include the abdomen, arms, thighs, chest, upper back, and buttocks. Your surgeon will help prioritize the areas that matter most to you.
Will I need more than one surgery?
Depending on how many areas you’d like to treat and your overall health, we may recommend staging procedures for safety and optimal healing.
Are these procedures covered by insurance?
Insurance may cover skin removal if it causes medical issues like rashes or infections. We can provide documentation if needed and offer financing for elective components.
How long will recovery take?
Recovery varies by procedure and how many areas are addressed, but most patients need 2–4 weeks off from work and 6–8 weeks before resuming full activity.
