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.

Once you are at or near your ideal weight, make an appointment for post-weight loss liposuction surgery in Charlotte. With the right procedures, we can help you achieve your desired body.
Posted on T “Traveling Lady”Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with Ditesheim Cosmetic. Everyone was wonderful from initial consultation to 10months post op. Dr. Ditesheim really takes the time to listen to what you want and provides you with expected outcomes and options. Day of surgery, knowing my expectations, he made some last-minute changes to improve my chances of getting the desired outcome. I am very much pleased with my results. I previously had an adominoplasty 20yrs ago with a different physician and was never satisfied. Dr. Ditesheim recommended Lipo 360 with renuvion for skin tightening along with BBL to have better shape. It was apparent with a few days that I was going to be happy with my choice. Dr. D and the staff followed up on me daily after discharge for almost a week and their concern continues. I definitely recommend Ditesheim Cosmetic for your cosmetic needs. I plan to have two more procedures, and they will be with Dr. Ditesheim. Pictures I have attached are 6months Post-Op Before/AfterPosted on Stephani Guimaraes LimaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have nothing but amazing things to say about Dr. Ditesheim and his entire team. I’ve had two procedures with him, and my partner has had one, and we are both beyond happy with the results. I have lipedema, and I searched all over the United States for a plastic surgeon who truly specializes in this condition and has strong, real before-and-after results. After extensive research, I finally found Dr. D. From the first consultation, I felt confident, informed, and cared for, which made it easier to move forward with surgery for a lipo on my legs. The results exceeded my expectations, and a year later I returned for a breast augmentation. My breasts turned out absolutely beautiful, exactly the size, shape, and look I wanted, it fits My body 100%. My partner also had HD liposuction, and he looks incredible. We both fully trust Dr. D’s expertise, recommendations, and artistic eye and the results have consistently been even better than we imagined. The team is exceptional, friendly, professional, kind, and genuinely happy to help. We travel from Virginia to Charlotte specifically to be treated there because of how much we trust Dr. D and his staff. That alone speaks volumes. I’m already planning my next visit, and I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else.Posted on Cole ClineTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing experience with Dr. Ditesheim and staff. Had gyno surgery four months ago and the improvements have become significant in recent weeks beyond the initial surgery improvements. In total, I spent only a few hours in the office well tailored to my college schedule. I highly recommend Dr. Ditesheim and will for sure come back for any future cosmetic surgeries. Be patient with results, I promise it will be worth it in a few months.Posted on Joey SimpsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The time and details provided by Dr. Ditesheim was more than expected and made me feel very comfortable with proceeding with the surgery. My results are better than expected. His staff are all very nice and helpful. It has and continues to be a pleasurable experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Ditesheim for any cosmetic procedure you are considering.Posted on Andrew SimpsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had abdominoplasty and hi-def lipo following an 80 lb weight loss. I love my results and would highly recommend Dr. D. Absolutely well worth it.Posted on Low ProfileTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had gynecomastia surgery with Dr. Ditesheim and am now 4 months post-op. From the initial consultation to every follow-up, Dr. Ditesheim and his team have been nothing short of exceptional. He took the time to really understand my concerns, clearly explained the procedure and recovery, and set realistic expectations for the healing process. I never felt rushed or like “just another patient” — I felt like I was in the hands of a true professional who genuinely cares about his work and his patients. The results speak for themselves. My chest looks significantly better, more natural, and I feel much more confident overall. Healing was smooth, and Dr. Ditesheim was always accessible for questions and check-ins. Even now, months later, he continues to follow my progress and provide helpful feedback. If you’re considering gynecomastia surgery or any cosmetic procedure, I highly recommend Dr. Ditesheim. He combines surgical skill with a great bedside manner, and the whole office operates with professionalism and compassion. This procedure was a huge confidence boost — I only wish I had done it sooner. Thank you to Dr. Ditesheim and his team for helping me feel like a new person.Posted on Seth HendersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great Gynecomastia result and experience! Everyone in the office was super friendly, and Dr. Ditesheim openly answered all of my questions and concerns.Posted on Adam GreerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had gyno removed and it was an absolute awesome experience I’m 3months post surgery and more than satisfied. No scars and nobody can even tell where the incisions was. Highly recommend Dr Ditesheim!Posted on Melissa GodwinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the moment I walk into Dr Ditesheim's office, he and his team make me feel so comfortable and at ease every single time. I recently had an earlobe repair done on both ears and the results are amazing! Dr Ditesheim always provides knowledgeable care and takes time to answer all of my questions. I've been a patient for about 17 years and will continue to see Dr Ditesheim for all of my cosmetic procedures.
“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.”
