Unfortunately, sagging skin leaves many men and women self-conscious or embarrassed about the skin left behind after all their hard work! Patients should fully understand what can realistically be achieved with body contouring treatments after significant weight loss, and comprehend the risks that come with treatment. Patients who continue to lose weight will notice the redevelopment of skin pockets, and if weight is regained afterwards, the results may be lost.
