What Is Body Contouring?
Body contouring refers to a range of surgical and non-surgical procedures aimed at reshaping and improving the appearance of the body by reducing fat, tightening skin, and enhancing overall body shape. It is often used by people who want to address specific areas that are resistant to diet and exercise or after significant weight loss to remove excess skin and fat.
Who Is A Good Candidate For Body Contouring After Major Weight Loss?
A good candidate for body contouring after major weight loss is someone who has lost a significant amount of weight and has been at a stable weight for at least 6 months. The skin in the areas to be treated should be loose and not able to tighten up on its own. People who are in good overall health and have realistic expectations for the procedure are also good candidates.
What Are The Different Types Of Body Contouring Procedures?
There are many different types of body contouring procedures, depending on the area of the body being treated. Some of the most common procedures include:
- Arm Lift
- Breast Lift
- Breast Augmentation
- Breast Reduction

The results of body contouring can be dramatic and can significantly improve a person's self-confidence and quality of life.
If you are considering body contouring after major weight loss, it is important to talk to a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and expectations.
Here are some additional things to keep in mind about body contouring after major weight loss:
- You should be in good physical health before the procedure.
