45 Year Old Female 12 Years Post Gastric Bypass Surgery (140 Pound Weight Loss) with Lots of Excess Skin. Grand Rapids, MI

I was left with a lot of excess skin, especially around my lower hip/upper outer thigh area, to the point where I felt deformed. At my first consultation, Dr. Renucci asked me what bothers me the most. He recommended a circumferential lower body lift with abdominoplasty. When he lifted and pulled the excess skin and showed what he could remove, I was amazed. I left the appointment feeling hopeful, yet discouraged because I felt guilty about wanting to spend the money on myself. My husband and family convinced me I was worth it. For me, it was like taking the final step after my gastric bypass. Having all of the excess skin still made me feel unattractive and fat.
Dr. Renucci was amazing. His bedside manner is the best. He is compassionate, caring, and extremely talented. I am so thankful I had this surgery and that Dr. Renucci was my surgeon. It is truly an art for him, and he is the best. The results have exceeded my expectations! I hope to have a thighplasty someday and wouldn't think of having any other surgeon!
