Recovery Operations After Significant Weight Loss

After a drastic weight loss, most individuals face the same issue. While the excess pounds are gone, the outer skin is much too large. These excess skin and soft tissue issues after weight loss present a functional problem with health implications for most people. Aesthetic concerns often come second. Unpleasant sweating, redness, chafing, and fungal infections in areas of skin contact are just a few examples of the complaints described by those affected, alongside limitations in movement.

This book aims to inform those affected about the current surgical options for body contour restoration after weight loss and to provide guidance. How do you find the right surgeon? What should you pay attention to during the consultation? What types of surgeries are available, and what are the differences, for example, between a body lift and a tummy tuck? What are the essential risks, and what is the approximate cost of a surgery if you pay for it yourself?

In addition to these medical questions, the book will also address the application process and cost coverage for such surgeries. Here, you will receive firsthand assistance from a specialized lawyer.

Further helpful tips will be summarized for you by an affected individual at the end of the book.
