Hi, I've recently have lost 146 pounds. I started my weight-loss journey 3 years ago and have been in maintenance for a year now. I have lots of excess skin. I need an Arm lift, breast lift, thigh lift, butt lift and tummy tuck. I need to find the correct way (order) to getting my ideal body. I also need info on pricing and financing in Chicago area plus recovery info, etc Thanks in advance!

Answer: Excess skin removal Dear Unajeva, I understand your concern. It is best however that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine whether you can have several aesthetic surgeries in one session, as this would depend on various factors including but not limited to your general health condition, the type of anesthesia that will be used, and the type of surgeries that will be performed among others.

Answer: Excess skin after weight loss First, congratulations on your weight loss! That is certainly a great accomplishment. My typical approach is to first do a lower body lift which would combine the tummy tuck and butt lift into one procedure. Usually second would be breast and arms and third would be thighs. Some of this is individualized based on people's priorities and anatomy. It would be best to see and be examined by a board certified plastic surgeon to help assess your goals and what order of surgeries would be best. Hope this helps!
