The La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Podcast - With San Diego’s Most Loved Plastic Surgeons

You Lost Weight, But Now You Look Like a Melted Candle


Listen Later

You find yourself looking in the mirror after major weight loss and thinking, “Where do I even begin?”

Loose skin on your stomach, thighs, arms, or butt feels overwhelming, and Googling “body lift” only adds to the confusion. Can you do it all at once? Should you?

San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Johan Brahme breaks down how to think about your treatment plan to match your goals, health, and lifestyle.

Since losing more weight can still affect other areas, Dr. Brahme often starts with the stomach and saves the thigh lift for last due to the tougher recovery. A strategic combination of procedures can cut down on cost and recovery time, but not everyone is a candidate for everything at once.

Recovery depends on the procedures you choose, but expect compression garments, limited activity for a few months, and possibly surgical drains. Lymphatic massage can also help reduce swelling and support healing.

From arm lifts to thigh lifts, Dr. Brahme explains what to expect, how long results take, how long to be at a stable weight before surgery, and why well-placed scars are a worthwhile trade for better contour.
