 | A common problem faced by people who have had extreme weight loss of 100 pounds or more is that, although they have lost the weight they wanted, they are left with inches of hanging skin around the abdomen, arms, neck, thighs and buttocks. This is caused by the skin's loss of elasticity. It has been stretched beyond its capacity to retract. The most common plastic surgery after weight loss, is a procedure to remove the excess skin: abdominoplasty, otherwise known as the “tummy tuck.” This procedure is performed by removing the excess skin and fat around the tummy and waist. Excess skin around the arms and neck can also be removed.Today, the demand for cosmetic surgery continues to increase thanks in part to advances, including the BIS monitoring system which provides for safer anesthesia. Our facility is one of the first out-patient surgical facilities to introduce this new monitoring system for cosmetic surgery patients.
