Men who come to Dr. Young for Body Lifts are also usually those who have lost massive weight following Bariatric Surgery. While men experience the same type of loose hanging skin, the areas that are most concerning to men are usually quite different. Men tend to place emphasis on improving their chest, tummy and back, and these are often combined as a single procedure. When and if additional procedures are considered, it may include Arm Lift (Brachioplasty), Buttock or Thigh Lift.
As with women, those men interested in Body Lift should have maintained a stable weight for a minimum of three months to a year, and should be actively participating in a healthy diet and exercise program. Those who have gone through gastric bypass or Lap-Band should wait at least one year after weight loss so that any of the common health problems associated with obesity have had time to improve and so that your weight is stable.
Dr. Young will work with you to determine a safe, effective plan for surgeries that are most important for you.
