Post Weight Loss Surgeries

After significant weight loss, excess skin can affect comfort and appearance, which is where body contouring procedures come in. Options include an arm lift, injections, thigh lift, abdominoplasty, back reduction, buttock lift, and a 360 lower body lift to reshape and tone multiple areas for a smoother, more proportioned silhouette.

Post Weight Loss Surgery Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about post weight loss surgery

What are the main body contouring procedures after weight loss?

After significant weight loss, excess skin can affect comfort and appearance. Common procedures include arm lifts to tighten sagging upper arms, thigh lifts to firm the legs, abdominoplasty to remove excess stomach skin and tighten muscles, back reduction to smooth rolls or bulges, buttock lifts to reshape and lift the buttocks, and a 360 lower body lift for a comprehensive transformation of the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks.

How do these procedures improve appearance and comfort?

These surgeries remove loose skin and, in some cases, excess fat, restoring a smoother, firmer, and more proportioned body contour. They can reduce discomfort from chafing, improve the fit of clothing, and enhance confidence and quality of life.

How long does recovery take?

Recovery depends on the procedure, but most patients can return to light daily activities within 2–6 weeks. Full recovery, including resuming exercise or strenuous activity, usually takes 6–8 weeks. Your surgeon will provide a personalised recovery plan with specific instructions for your surgery.

What are the risks of body contouring surgery?

As with any surgery, risks include infection, bleeding, scarring, delayed wound healing, and asymmetry. Following your surgeon’s advice and aftercare instructions can minimise these risks.

Can multiple areas be treated at once?

Yes, procedures can be combined depending on your goals and health. For example, a 360 lower body lift addresses the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks in a single surgery for a comprehensive transformation.

I was very concerned about my breast implant removal and the shape I would be left with. I opted for a removal and an uplift. I love the look of my breasts after the operation. They have a great shape and I feel so confident about my new look. I was also concerned about the scarring but that seems to be fading relatively quickly. An amazing surgeon he put me at ease throughout and I wish I had done this sooner. If I were to have further surgery I would go back to Andrej.

I am incredibly pleased with the outstanding care and expertise Maria Chasapi has brought to my surgery. From the initial consultation to the final follow-up, her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail were second to none. She took the time to understand my goals, explained every step with clarity, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the process. The results have exceeded my expectations—not just aesthetically, but in how confident and comfortable I now feel.

"

Mr Salibi listened to my concerns, he explained the procedure in great detail and answered my list of questions. His persona, his calmess, his reassurance left me feeling at ease and I was so eager to have my tummy tuck after years of hiding my body under smocks and over shirts. I am now six weeks post op and cannot stop smiling... My scar is so neat, so perfect and is healing exceptionally well. My body confidence has returned and I cannot thank My Salibi enough for working his magic.

I highly recommend Maria for BA surgery. She was so supportive throughout the whole process, she understood exactly what I wanted and how I wanted to look. She's knowledgeable, professional, attentive, and reassuring whilst always making me feel comfortable and never rushed. My surgery went really well, and my recovery was so smooth, which I honestly put down to being in such good hands with Maria and receiving such amazing care. Thank you!

Such a lovely, gentle, professional, knowledgeable man who certainly knows his trade. Andrej did a magnificent job of restoring my lost eyelids. I am delighted with the results, so much so, I have said he can use my before and after photos, to show others just how much better and natural they look. The procedure felt like a spar treat. I was under local anaesthetic. It felt so gentle, at times just like peeling false eyelashes off! I would highly recommend this amazing, skillful doctor.

I can't thank Maria enough for the beautiful results of my breast reduction surgery. To say It's changed my life is an understatement. Maria is professional yet warm, a lovely lady whom I trusted from the very first meeting. I didn't think I was nervous on the day of my surgery but when Maria laid her hand on my arm, she promised " I will look after you" I realised I needed those words. 9 weeks post op & I look & feel amazing, thank you so much Maria ❤️

"

I am 8 weeks post op with a deep plane face and neck lift carried out by Mr Salibi. From my very first consultation Mr Salibi explained everything and was very personable. The whole team were amazing, Sally was my nurse on the day and kept me nice and calm. She also removed my staples 2 weeks after surgery. I am very happy with my journey and healing process.

I can highly recommend Maria she is Amazing! I had an extended tummy tuck and muscle repair last December my first ever operation and Maria from the very start consulting stage to after care has been amazing. So kind, warm and knowledgeable. results are beyond belief and she has changed my life. I then had a breast lift and implants in March with Maria as she gave me the confidence and again beautiful. If you are looking for a supportive surgeon that’s is extremely talented then choose Maria.

Mr Andrej Salibi is an amazing man and he’s skills as a surgeon are undeniably excellent I had septorhinoplasty 6 weeks ago and the operation went as smooth as ever my septum and my nose looks brilliant and my breathing has improved massively i would high recommend him to anyone.

I had a scar revision done by Miss Maris Chasapi and I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon! She has changed my life completely. I would refuse to let anyone see or touch my stomach, whereas now I love showing it off!! She is the reason I feel beautiful when I look in the mirror.

She's absolutely amazing at what she does and I can't thank her enough I'm so grateful to have met her and experienced her work

Lovely & professional. Mr Salibi was amazing, he listened to everything I had to say, asked lots of questions to make me feel at ease. I’ve had a cyst/abscess on my face for over 2 years. I cried on my way home out of happiness that it’s finally gone! Thank you so much.
