Answer: J Plasma Post Bariatric Surgery While an in person consultation or pictures will provide a more accurate assessment, based on your history alone of having been a significant weight loss patient, it is highly likely that you will not be a candidate for J Plasma alone and will require a total body lift or potentially a split lower body/upper body lift based on your current habitus, skin laxity, and goals. An in person or virtual consultation with a post bariatric weight loss specialist will provide you accurate recommendation and pricing. Respectfully,Brandon Richland, MD

Answer: J-Plasma is a good option J-Plasma works well, though in our experience it seems to work on areas where the skin flap is thinner. For areas where the skin flap is thicker we still like Bodytite.

Answer: J Plasma J-Plasma works well for those with good skin elasticity. If you are have poor elasticity you will not likely have favorable results from J Plasma. An examination is needed to know for sure, but in those cases excision is often the best option.
