The physical limitations that come with excess skin after major weight loss are real - it's not just about appearance. Skin folds can restrict movement, cause chafing, and make it difficult to maintain the active lifestyle you've worked to achieve. Body contouring surgery addresses functional concerns as well as aesthetic ones. We'll talk through what's involved, the recovery timeline, and whether surgery aligns with your health goals right now.

This 39 year old patient can be seen here before & then 8 months post bilateral & extended mastopexy (breast lift), & 19 months post belt lipectomy & bilateral brachioplasty, as part of her massive weight loss procedures.
The circumferential body lift and brachioplasty component removes excess skin from the abdomen, back, flanks and arms, while a breast lift (mastopexy) addresses volume and positioning. Recovery continues with gradual tissue settling.

Spring has well and truly transformed into summer in Queensland and I’m hearing more and more patients ask "When can I hit the beach or pool again?"
It's a fair question, especially here in Queensland where water activities are a big part of our lifestyle and my body contouring patients are understandably keen to don a bikini for the first time in a while.
Check out this guide I wrote where I break it down in a way that's easy to understand but still gives you all the important details. ▶️ https://tinyurl.com/4mywbm5r

My patients often confide in me with sentiments such as this and it's a valid concern. Massive weight loss is an incredible achievement, but excess skin can be a physical reminder that doesn't reflect the hard work you've put in. During your consultation, we'll discuss what's realistic for your situation, the surgical options available, and what recovery actually involves. Every person's body responds differently, and understanding your specific circumstances is where we start.

This 33-year-old patient presented with tuberous breast, a condition that occurs when breast tissue doesn’t grow as expected during puberty.
A mammaplasty is a reconstructive procedure that alters the size or contour of the female breast and it may address the tuberous breast condition.
The mammaplasty was also able to address a breast asymmetry the patient was experiencing and her results can be seen both before (image on the left) and then nine months post-operatively.
