Post-weight-loss contouring removes the excess skin left after major weight loss and reshapes the body’s contour. After dramatic weight loss (including after bariatric surgery), skin often doesn’t tighten back on its own — this addresses it, frequently across several areas.

CANDIDATES

Who Is It For?

NOTE
This often involves more than one area (e.g. an abdominal body lift, arms, thighs) and may be planned in stages. The approach is built around priorities and safety. It’s ideally done once weight is stable.
