I had bariatric surgery (gastric bypass) in Sept'14. That surgery was a success - between the prep period prior to the surgery and post-surgery, I lost ~120 pounds. As my weight loss stabilized, I was still faced with a large amount of skin around my belly where the "supporting" fat had disappeared but the skin remained. This caused issues such as back pain and the formation of irritation...
I had saggy/bulgy tissue in my mons area; it made exercise awkward, clothing never fit properly, and I was always getting rashes and infections. Dr. Fichadia was able to remove 14 pounds of excess skin/tissue and I move SO much better now. No rashes/infections in that area anymore! I am three months out and pretty happy with the results so far.
