At Florida Surgery and Weight Loss Center, Dr. Sergey Terushkin understands the importance of Post-Bariatric care. Surgery is just the first step in a patient’s new life, and continuing care is critical to ongoing success.
Post Bariatric Weight Loss Surgery
Post-bariatric after weight loss refers to the period and concerns that arise after a person has undergone bariatric surgery or another form of weight loss intervention. Bariatric surgery is a medical procedure that helps individuals with severe obesity lose weight by making changes to their digestive system. There are various types of bariatric surgeries, including gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and gastric banding, among others.
After undergoing significant weight loss, whether through surgery or other means, individuals often face a series of challenges and considerations:
Reaching your goal weight is a significant achievement, whether through diet and exercise or bariatric surgery. After losing over a hundred pounds, you may notice some excess skin that can prevent you from feeling confident at your new weight. Post weight loss procedures, or body contouring procedures, usually include procedures that target the stomach, arms, thighs, or breasts. Body contouring procedures can also help with skin hygiene by reducing the occurrence of skin rashes and infections that form between the folds of excess skin in some patients.

Here’s a look a who post-weight loss skin tightening in Florida Surgery and Weight Loss Center, is right for.
The best individuals for post-weight loss surgery are those who are dealing with loose and wrinkled skin due to a massive weight loss or fluctuation. Your weight should be stable for at least 12 months before you seek plastic surgery. If you are challenged by loose skin, cosmetic skin and fat removal at Florida Surgery and Weight Loss Center can eliminate the issue and secure the tissue and remaining skin for a tighter and healthier appearance. It’s recommended that patients are close to a healthy weight before considering skin removal surgery.
Plastic surgery to remove loose skin is almost always considered an invasive treatment. This surgery utilizes general anesthesia and on average, it takes between 3 – 7 hours, depending upon the combination of procedures being performed (arms, breasts, tummy, face). Usually, a hospital stay is not necessary.
A form of liposuction is often integrated during the procedure to remove fat, followed by the surgical removal of skin. This operation does make longer incisions than most other cosmetic procedures so varying degrees of scars will be a part of this treatment. During this procedure, every effort is made by Dr. Sergey Terushkin to make the incisions as discreet as possible. We will also give you thorough scar healing instructions for a healthy outcome.
