Aesthetics After Obesity Surgery

After excessive weight loss with the help of weight loss surgeries such as gastric banding, balloon placement in the stomach, gastric sleeve surgery, stomach reduction, or excessive weight loss through diet and exercise, the loosened skin on the body may not recover sufficiently and sagging may occur in different areas. Problems such as fungus and diaper rash that occur under the sagging skin after obesity surgery affect the quality of life. There are significant problems in wearing appropriate clothing. Similar skin sagging may occur after losing excess weight gained during pregnancy.

Excessive weight loss after gastric sleeve surgery may cause sagging of varying degrees on the face, neck, breast, arms, abdomen, butt and thighs.

How Long After Gastric Sleeve Surgery Can Aesthetics Be Performed?
It is important to remain constant at the final weight for at least one year when losing weight after surgery and pregnancy. If the weight lost is regained, or if there are periods of gaining and losing excess weight, surgical operations such as stretching and stretching are not recommended. For this reason, it is extremely important to maintain a stable weight for a period of 1 year.

Which Areas Can Be Aesthetics After Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
Face - Neck Area: Classic face lift, neck lift or mini face lift depending on the degree of sagging. Breasts: Sagging breasts are corrected with a breast lift surgery called mastopexy. Since the fat content of the breasts has decreased in most cases, it is necessary to support the sagging breast in volume with a breast prosthesis while recovering it in the same session. Abdominal Area: It is corrected with abdominoplasty surgery. Most of the time, tummy tuck and butt lift are performed together to correct sagging buttocks and hips. In the circumferential (all-round) body lift procedure, all sagging in the abdomen, waist, butt and hip areas is corrected.
Arms: Sagging in the arms is corrected with arm lift surgery; There will be scars on the inside of the arm and under the armpit.
Butt-Hip: As a result of excessive weight loss, the butt loses volume, becomes flat and sags. In cases of sagging in the butt and hip areas, the skin is pulled up all around, "like pulling up trousers" and the excess parts are removed. During this procedure, instead of removing the excess part of the butt and throwing it away, it can be placed on the inside of the butt to make it look fuller.
Thighs: Inner thighs. The sagging in the parts of the body is obvious and is removed by thigh lift surgery; Surgery scars are hidden in the groin area.
