After major weight loss, excess skin can feel like the final hurdle. These procedures help refine your shape and restore confidence in the body you’ve worked so hard for.
Post-weight loss surgery removes excess skin and reshapes your body to reflect the progress you’ve worked hard for
Downtime varies based on procedure type, but most patients resume light activity within 2 weeks.
A more contoured, balanced figure that matches the effort and transformation you’ve already achieved.
Significant weight loss can reduce volume and change breast shape. A breast augmentation and/or a breast lift can help restore balance, shape, and proportion to match your new frame.
Target areas with loose or hanging skin—like the arms, thighs, abdomen, or back—to improve comfort and silhouette.
It’s not just about removing skin—it’s about helping your body look and feel more proportionate. We tailor each plan to your natural structure and personal goals.
At Ditesheim Plastic Surgery, we understand the needs of people who have lost significant weight. With the many different plastic surgery procedures available, we can help you discover the body contours you have been working towards. If you desire a post-weight loss makeover, schedule a consultation with our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Jeffrey Ditesheim. During your meeting, Dr. Ditesheim will discuss your aesthetic goals and evaluate your current body to create a personalized treatment plan.
When you lose enough weight, you will realize that you have transformed your body into a new, improved you. This can be very satisfying, but it can still leave you with excess skin and tissue you cannot get rid of by exercise and diet alone. That is when you need to turn to an expert plastic surgeon like Dr. Ditesheim to help you complete your transformation. Once you are at or near your ideal weight, make an appointment for post-weight loss surgery in Charlotte. With the right procedures, we can help you achieve your desired body.
“I had over 10 pounds of skin, and tissue to be removed. I have never been a small girl but for the first time in my life I wore a bikini to the beach this summer. That was never my goal but it was/is a glorious outcome.”
“The procedure took very little time (about 30 minutes)...the results of my aquashape liposuction were better than I expected...the surgeon and office staff were very professional”.
“The outcome!!! I had aquashape lipo on my stomach after having a baby. It had made me 100% more confident in myself. The staff is amazing! I was 100% comfortable the entire time. They make sure you are completely satisfied and do everything they can to make you comfortable.”
