The number of people getting bariatric surgery, or weight loss surgery, has increased in recent years. Losing a dramatic amount of weight can revitalize the body and the mind. It can improve your health, energy, and self-worth, and it can prompt positive changes in your lifestyle. However, many people in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, and the East Valley have found that significant weight loss leaves behind loose, stretched skin that has lost its elasticity. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Josh Olson and board-eligible plastic surgeon Dr. Jacob Marks can help you take the next step after weight loss with body contouring surgery in Gilbert, Arizona. They personalize this procedure to complement your thinner silhouette and increase your confidence.
People who have lost a significant amount of weight, especially through bariatric surgery such as gastric banding, gastric bypass, or a gastric sleeve, are often left with excess skin that hangs around the body. With cosmetic surgery, Dr. Olson and Dr. Marks can:
Remove excess skin
Tighten the skin and muscles of the upper and lower body
Enhance the body’s appearance
Increase confidence and improve self-image

Because weight loss generally affects many different areas of the body, a wide range of treatments makes up the category of post-weight loss body contouring. Our plastic surgeons can perform any combination of the following procedures to help you gain an appearance that accentuates your new trimmer physique.
Brachioplasty (Arm Lift)
Extensive weight loss often leaves loose, hanging skin on the arms, which can be embarrassing and difficult to conceal unless you always wear loose, long-sleeved clothing. With very inconspicuous incisions, Dr. Olson and Dr. Marks can remove excess upper arm skin, leaving your arms looking firm and toned.
Lower Body Lift
The midsection, hips, buttocks, and thighs are also affected by significant weight loss. A circumferential abdominoplasty (or belt lipectomy) is similar to a traditional tummy tuck but extends all the way around to the lower back. It can eliminate excess skin around the midsection while firming the tissues of the buttocks and thighs. If the buttocks and thighs require more attention, our plastic surgeons can perform a thigh lift to further tighten these areas.
Breast and Facial Surgery
The breasts and face may also require attention if they are left with loose, excess skin after weight loss surgery. To learn more, read about breast reduction, breast lift, and facelift and neck lift procedures.
Recovery & Results
Recovery time varies based on the procedures chosen. Dr. Olson and Dr. Marks will provide detailed instructions for recovery and provide ongoing support to monitor your progress. Once you heal, you will be able to fully enjoy your thinner body. With exercise and a balanced diet, you can further enhance your health, physical appearance, and sense of self-worth.
