Nashville Massive Weight Loss
Whether you have lost a lot of weight through diet and exercise or through a procedure such as bariatric surgery, you are probably left with significant excess skin. Many different areas of your body including face, arms, breasts, abdomen, and thighs will seem as though the skin just hangs. Dr. Fisher sees many people in this condition and believes that if you are at or near your optimum weight, you may be a good candidate for body contouring surgery. If you have recently had or are considering bariatric surgery, Dr. Fisher will work closely with your surgeon to insure you receive the optimal results.
Your Consultation
During your initial consultation, Dr. Fisher will examine your body to determine the best approach for your body contouring. He believes strongly that no two patients are alike and will provide you with his expert opinion on what body contouring procedures are best for you. You should write down any questions you have prior to the appointment as Dr. Fisher will spend as much time as needed to make you feel comfortable with the body contouring procedures.
In some cases, Dr. Fisher may suggest multiple procedures including an arm lift, breast lift, thigh lift, or a body lift. If you need multiple procedures, he may also recommend that you stage these surgeries across many months to receive the best results. While you will notice the outcome of your body contouring quickly, if you have poor skin elasticity or gain weight, you may see some relapse of your sagging skin.
Your Surgery
Prior to your surgery, Dr. Fisher will give you preoperative and post operative instructions to follow. To be prepared for your body contouring surgery and make your recovery process smoother, we suggest you follow these instructions closely. Should you have any questions, make sure to contact the office immediately.
