Hello, 34yo female, 5'10", 250lb. RNY gastric bypass in 2008, lost a total of 130lb. I had a brachioplasty in 2009 but held off on abdominal skin removal due to wanting children. I've had 2 C-sections, 2015 and 2017. I want a flat stomach, smooth sides and back. Thighs would be a secondary procedure in the future. Abdominal area and back is main focus at this time.
Answer: Circumferential body lift A circumferential body lift would remove loose skin and fat on your front, sides and back of your mid-section. Abdominal muscle separation in your front could also be performed. Liposuction may be performed at the same time to enhance your results.

Answer: Circumferential body lift The technique I recommend is a circumferential body lift. This can be done in 2 sessions: front and then the back. Liposuction can also be added or done separately. At 5'10 and 250 lbs, your BMI is 36 which puts you at a higher risk for complications. I recommend you begin a low fat diet, core exercises such as sit-ups, planks, pilates and wear a compression garment. This may help with the skin recoil.

Answer: Considering procedures Congratulations on your impressive weight loss! Once you have reached your goal weight and are able to maintain it you are ready for plastic surgery. To achieve your stated goals you will want to consider a fleur de lis tummy tuck, liposuction of the back, hips, and flanks. I encourage you to begin by meeting with a few board certified plastic surgeons in your area for consultations. Your concerns about your thighs can be discussed at that time as well.
