Answer: Body contouring is best done once you have achieved and sustained your weight loss goals. The recommendations for every patient need to be individualized based on a thorough consultation. However, most body contouring procedures (including face and breast surgery) are best performed when you have achieved and maintained your weight loss and fitness goals. One of the advantages of elective surgery is that you can optimize your health, weight, and fitness prior to surgery which may improve your results and reduce complications. Depending on your size, an additional 8 kilo weight loss may result in accelerated laxity of your surgical result. Have this conversation with your Plastic Surgeon.Regards,Dr. Mosher
