I have been at my goal sought for 4 months.
Answer: Stable weight Good afternoon!congrats on your weight loss! It is vital that you wait until your weight is stabilized- meaning that you stay within 5 pounds for several months- before proceeding with any cosmetic surgery after massive weight loss. In general, one needs to wait a year after gastric sleeve surgery before embarking on these procedures.I hope this helps

Answer: Weight loss after surgery Thank you for your question.After weight loss surgery, over the first year the weight will continue to come off. I would recommend waiting at least a year and maintaining that weight for at least 6 months. You do not want to have the surgery, then have more weight loss and end up with more sagging after surgery.

Answer: How long after gastric sleeve do I have to wait to have a breast lift? When you have reached your weight goal and held it steady for three to six months, you can have the breast lift to remove excess sagging skin and fat while improving the shape of the underlying support tissue. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Bellesoma Lift Once you have achieved your desired goal, it would be acceptable to do a breast lift. The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. The weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying pectoralis major muscle resulting in long term stability. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breast lift after Massive Weight Loss Generally, after bariatric surgery, it takes about 1 year to lose about 80% of the weight you are going to lose. We generally want the patient to be at a stable weight for at least 3 months before undergoing body contouring surgery.The most important aspect here is to maintain at a weight that you are comfortable with and are able to keep at without significant modification to your life.Hope that helps.
