I had a panniculectomy done last year and I am very unhappy with the results I have alot of hanging skin still and have been at the same weight for a year now. I have changed my diet, I stopped drinking soda, and am very active but nothing is helping. I was suppose to have a revision but was turned down because it was not considered medically necessary although it is causing me to be more and more depressed. So my questions are; would you recommend a revision, how should I proceed from here.

Great review?

I am no doctor but i think you would benefit from a full tummy tuck although that procedure is not covered by insurance. I would consult a board certified plastic surgeon. Or if you can't afford a tummy tuck (financing is often readily available for people with decent credit) there is always diet & exercise! Hire a personal trainer and you'll start to see improvement of your body. There's always room to push yourself even further!
