You crushed your weight-loss goals with Ozempic®, Wegovy®, or Mounjaro™. High-five!
Now you’re wondering what to do about the loose skin or leftover fat that diet and exercise can’t touch. Let’s talk tummy tucks, body lifts, and how to make your outside match the new you.
Why Skin Sags After Fast Weight Loss
- Skin can’t always “snap back,” especially after big changes.
- Collagen levels drop with age, so elasticity fades.
- Belly, arms, and thighs usually show it the most.
Top Surgical Fixes
- Tummy Tuck– removes loose belly skin, tightens muscles.
- Lower Body Lift– 360° lift for tummy, hips, thighs, and butt.
- Arm / Thigh Lift– trims “bat wings” and thigh laxity.
Recovery at a Glance
- Week 1:Rest, short walks, compression garments.
- Weeks 2-4:Swelling eases, light exercise ok.
- Months 2-6:Final shape shows, scars fade.
