  • Performed by Expert Cosmetic Surgeon — Dr Shukan Kapadia
  • Advanced Post-Weight-Loss Contouring

Lost the Weight But Not Happy With the Shape?

  • Worked hard in the gym or followed strict diets after your bariatric surgery, yet unhappy with sagging skin?
  • Struggling with folds of loose skin that make movement, clothing, or confidence difficult?
  • Feeling like your transformation is incomplete because hanging skin replaced the fat you lost?

Even after massive weight loss or bariatric surgery, the body often cannot retract the skin. This leads to:

  • Loose, overhanging skin
  • Residual stubborn fat
  • Wrinkled or uneven contours
  • Rashes due to skin folds
  • Poor fit in clothes
  • Often difficulty in maintaining hygiene
  • Difficulty in intimate relations

It can deeply affect mobility, comfort, and self-confidence.
