Phaedra Parks: After there's been a dramatic weight loss, and I'm assuming that's 100 pounds or more, what can people expect as far as their body and what surgeries do you recommend to enhance their new bodies?

Dr. Robert Centeno: There is some variability in what you can expect, and it really depends, number one, on what your baseline wight was, how much weight you lost, and also how you lost that weight. Certain procedures cause more dramatic weight loss than others, and whether you lose it through diet and exercise versus surgery also has an impact. The higher your baseline weight is, the higher your change in body weight is, that causes more severe issues. Patients who've had lap bands or diet and exercise have less severe issues. That's one of the distinctions. The other issue is that all areas of the body can be affected, from the face all the way down to your legs, and so we address all of those components because it affects each patient slightly differently.
