What Is Post Bariatric Body Contouring?
Post-bariatric body contouring is a series of surgical procedures to reshape the body after significant weight loss from bariatric surgery. It includes common procedures like abdominoplasty, body lift, breast lift, arm lift, and thigh lift. We remove the excess skin using these procedures to create a more proportionate appearance.
