If you have had weight loss surgery, lost the weight and now are left with sagging skin, there is an answer. Bariatric reconstructive surgery can help your body blend in with its new size.
There are several small procedures that can be done but the most common concentrates on the abdomen. Under general anesthesia, your doctor will create an incision, remove the excess skin, and if needed reposition the navel.
This kind of cosmetic surgery requires longer recovery time and increased risks, so speak with your cosmetic surgeon to make sure you are a candidate.
