Good candidates are adults in good health, non-smokers, with stable weights, and with realistic expectations about what the surgery can achieve. It is particularly suitable for those with excess skin after significant weight loss.

After surgery, immediate improvements are visible, with final results typically visible after the swelling and bruising have subsided, usually within a few months.

Results can last several years, as long as you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. However, aging and gravity will eventually alter results.

Avoid strenuous activity when recovering. Swelling, bruising, and discomfort may occur as a side effect.

You must undergo a medical evaluation before the procedure and stop taking certain medications. After the procedure, you must follow all postoperative instructions, wear a compression garment if recommended, and attend follow-up appointments.

During the procedure, incisions will be made, usually within the natural crease of the buttocks or beneath it. This procedure involves removing excess skin and fat from the body and lifting and tightening the remaining skin. The surgery typically lasts a few hours under general anesthesia.
