Sagging skin after weight loss



Recommended Posts

Be glad you don't, lol. Between the band and the sleeve, my poor tummy looks like a war zone.

I've looked into PS and what I've seen is that it's really hard to do arms and thighs well. People are the most disappointed in those procedures. So I figure mind have to be really bad to get PS and right now they aren't.

What bugs me the most are the flap of skin under my boobs and the flaps of skin that form around my bra on the sides. I also noticed today that my face looks kind of like a bulldog's! That's new. :thumbup1:

i had liposuction last year october almost the exact date i had my vsg. it looked pretty good at the time. but i did notice some losening of the skin of my stomach but it didn't look loose(it just felt loose) so that's all that mattered to me. but now that i'm loseing weight i fear that the more weight i lose the more loose my stomache would start to look. has anyone lost about 70lbs without needing a second procedure. i really just don't wanna go under the knive again, but i really wanna look good in a bikini and/or naked.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
