Help! I Had Bariatric Surgery and Now My Skin Sags.

Congratulations on your weight loss! Many of our post-bariatric patients are delighted by their new, slimmer bodies but somewhat disappointed by the excess, loose skin that remains. Complete your weight loss journey with us with post-bariatric plastic surgery. Remove excess skin, tighten up contours, and discover the smaller body you’ve waited years to have.

What Is Post-Bariatric Plastic Surgery?

Losing a great deal of weight is important for your health, but is only the first step to a new, smaller body. After you drop the pounds, you’ll likely need plastic surgery to adjust the contours of your body. Here at the Plastic Surgery Center of Nashville, we offer a variety of body contouring treatments to perfect your shape and alleviate much of the discomfort and embarrassment that excess skin can cause. Post-bariatric plastic surgery is the final step in a long weight loss journey. You’re almost there!

What Surgeries May be Included in My Post-Bariatric Plastic Surgery?

We customize each treatment to your unique needs, and will create a customized treatment plan for your ideal body. The following treatments are favorites of many of our post-bariatric patients, and are commonly recommended by our doctors.
