“After Gastric By-Pass Face Lift - Reston, VA”

After losing 150 lbs. from gastric by pass, I had a significant amount of lose skin on my entire body, but my face bothered me the most since that was the part I could not cover.

The lack of necessity of staying over night and a prolonged recooperation were the things that attracted. I was literally back to work 4 days later, didn't look pretty but felt okay. The bruising took well over 6 weeks to be gone.

The improvement was great,my skin looked almost like it did before the by pass, but I do feel it could have been tighter, I still have some sagging skin especially on the left side of my face I still have what they call the parenthess around my mouth, and alot of wrinkles at the upper cheekbones.

All in all I feel I definitely look better, but not as good as I could have. It seems that well after the after pictures were taken, more swelling went down and the skin has gotten looser already.
