Hi! I’ve consulted with multiple surgeons and I have had all three suggested to me of what it is I need. I’m bringing it the surgeons of RealSelf, what would YOU say I need? :)

Answer: FDL Thanks for your question! I would likely recommend a FDL because of your vertical and horizontal laxity. Before committing to anyone, look at B&A photos and find what fits you best! Good luck!

Answer: FDL? You will definitely benefit from a circumferential body lift with significant rejuvenation of you’re midsection. In situations where there is massive weight loss, it makes sense to commit to a FDL with a midline scar; if not, there can be creasing due to the unaddressed vertical lskin laxity. Having said that. If you do not want to commit to a midline scar, you may be fine with the circumferential lift and stage a vertical skin excision if you are not happy. Another important issue is diastasis; if you do not have muscle have diastasis, then you can have this all done with local anesthesia, no drains and a much less involved recovery with less risk across the board. I hope this helps and thank you for inquiring.
