Plastic surgery😱👀

Guys,

While everything is trimming down nicely, i noticed my arms and belly have the most excess skin. Its not too bad but its annoying. My doctor said focus on weigh lifting and if im not happy in 3months he’ll refer me to a plastic surgeon. Thoughts? Also im only four months post op

a lot of plastic surgeons suggest you wait for a year after hitting your lowest weight, because it's very common to have a 10-20 lb rebound. I waited two years, and I'm glad I did since I did gain that much (actually, a little more). They say a gain of more than 10-15 lbs can affect the results.

I agree with catwoman. Better to wait until your weight is stabilized to get the best results. You’re younger, though you may actually not have a lot of extra skin. When I did my sleeve, I did not have a whole lot. Honestly, you may find that if you wait a year that you don’t even need it. If not, you can save your money for when you’re older and you really need something done

soooooooo I am about 10m post op and I am getting plastics at 1yr just for my boobies lol I have been weight lifting and I will say it TRANSFORMS your body. I have skin that will never tighten up no matter how much I do and eventually I will get that taken care of, but for now I have no chest area and its really really really bothering me. So FOR ME I am getting those done. I have maintained my weight within +/- 5ish lbs for about 2 months and I will continue to do so forever.

In the mean time I am lifting like a mad woman and trying to tighten up LOL

I can't afford plastic surgery so have had to make do without.

My skin laxity has definitely improved in the almost 3 years since my surgery.

I was also certain in the first blush of weight loss in the first year that never would I ever regain even a single ounce, but I did regain quite a lot despite my resolution not to.

Haha that's all I have to say! My arms are still the most visible saggy skin I have and they look way better 3 years on. I would rather times a million have this 'problem' than my previous morbid obesity. No brainer.

Stomach and bum and legs nobody gets to see and have saggy skin - but also seem better as time progresses.

Breasts were the least unforgiving luckily, appearance wise.

I know we're all different and we want different things as we progress. Hoping you all get to where you want to be soon. 💚
