After the loss of weight either from exercise and diet or due to bariatric surgery, there could be a large excess of skin in different parts of the body affecting its aesthetic and functional aspect. In some regions of the body such as the abdomen, thighs, arms and face the deformity is more evident.
The objective of the surgery is to remove excess skin improving the facial and body contour. It is advisable to have stable body weight for at least one year to start the surgical process.
