Ozempic. Wegovy. Bariatric surgery.

No matter how you get there, losing a significant amount of weight can change your life. But it can also come with a few changes you might not expect – especially when it comes to excess skin.

We asked board-certified plastic surgeon Arthur Turko, MD, FACS, to walk us through what to expect after weight loss – and what you can do about it.

Breast augmentation before + after. 👏

These patient-submitted photos show the morning of her markings and one day post-op.

Every body is different — and so is every treatment plan. We’ll help you choose the right implant type, size, and placement for your goals, and talk about whether fat grafting could enhance shape or fullness.

Surgeon spotlight: John Kirkham, MD, FACS.⁠

Dr. Kirkham has a passion for the precision of plastic surgery. He describes the field as the problem-solving specialty – one that doesn’t focus on just one body part or just one type of patient.⁠

He says, “We work with kids, adults, the elderly – on a whole range of concerns. Some of our procedures take just a few minutes. Some take many hours. The key is to bring knowledge, skill, and precision to every case.”⁠

Dr. Kirkham is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. He is on the teaching faculty of the Lahey Clinic and serves as Assistant Clinical Professor at Maine Medical Center for Tufts University School of Medicine. He is an active member of the American Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery and of the American Association for Hand Surgery.⁠

Please join us in welcoming Candice Leach, MD, to Plastic + Hand Surgical Associates​! 🎉

Dr. Leach is board-certified by both the American Board of Surgery and the American Board of Plastic Surgery. She brings extensive experience shaped by training at leading academic medical centers, service as a United States Navy medical officer, and a fellowship in microsurgery.

“There’s no one-size-fits-all answer for everybody,” she says. “I try to listen to each patient’s goals and help them feel confident and comfortable in themselves.” She believes in making sure patients feel supported every step of the way. “I hope that they feel comfort – like somebody is there helping them through this – while they are making the decisions,” she says. “We’re working together.”

Learn more about Dr. Leach on our website, and we’re​ so proud to have her​ on our team! 👏
