Answer: Mommy Makeover - After Gastric Bypass Surgery Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent procedure. I believe it is best to be within 10 - 15 pounds of your goal weight prior to surgery for optimal results. You should be close to your goal for at least three months. Please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in body contouring for an in-person examination and details of the desired procedures. Ask to see before and after pictures of their work. Hope this helps and good luck.

Answer: How soon after gastric sleeve surgery patient should have body contouring surgery It is usually advised to wait about 12 months before undergoing extensive body makeover surgery that you need. You should reach a comfortable weight which you can maintain without significant diet. Only when you weight is stable and the extent of "sagging and hanging" is well defined, multiple body contouring procedures should be started. You have a good plan but be patient. Patience may be very difficult to exercise but it pays. Good luck.
