Massive weight loss procedures contour loose skin and tissues. When large amounts of weight are lost in a short period of time, the skin does not have time to conform to the reduced body size.

This procedure can be either inpatient or outpatient, depending on the scope of work to be performed. Preparation and procedure times will also vary. Consult with your physician to determine a timeframe for returning to work and strenuous activity.

Recovery periods vary according to your individual procedure. Full results may take 1-2 year to fully develop. Visible scars will remain, but the overall results will be long-lasting as long as you maintain your weight.
