P.s My chest also needs work done. i had gyno surgery before i lost 200lbs. thats why it happened
Answer: Achieving the best result and trade offs. Thank you for your photographs. I don’t believe any of the external skin tightening procedures are going to achieve the results that you’re looking for. I believe your absolute best result would come from a surgical revision, with the addition of a midline abdominal incision to correct your central abdominal skin laxity as well as your lower abdominal skin laxity. Revisions of the breast skin could be done at the same time. Discuss this with your plastic surgeon. Best wishes.

Answer: Body Congratulations on your weight loss! the tuck addresses the issue of excess vertical skin but not horizontal. You would need the vertical component of the tuck, the body lift, or I recommend now trying radiofrequency skin tightening like Renuvion.

Answer: Excess skin Congratulations on your impressive weight loss! From the photos it appears the issue is excess skin, not fat, so liposuction would not help you. You can consider a revision to your tummy tuck with the fleur-de-lis incision (vertical incision) to take up the excess skin from the midline. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Electromagnetic treatments underperform. Skin excision is best. After massive weight loss, the skin has lost its elasticity. Even if a surgeon removes large amounts of skin, the remaining skin will still be loose when you bend forward because it has lost its elasticity. Electromagnetic treatments are just a waste of time and money. Sometimes additional skin can be removed, but usually it is best just to accept the fact that the skin tone is not what it once was.

Answer: Had lower body lift and stomach still hangs. What can I do? Thanks so much for your inquire, In some cases, a secondary procedure may be necessary to achieve the desired results. Based on your photos, you appear to be a candidate for a tummy tuck revision with muscle repair, along with gynecomastia correction. Additionally, incorporating intense liposuction and skin tightening treatments can help you achieve even better results. Schedule an appointment with a plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns. He can assess whether the current result is normal for your stage of recovery or if further intervention might be needed.
