Conveniently located to serve Torrance

At Beyond Beautiful in Torrance, California

Body Contouring After Weight Loss TorranceSometimes losing weight is only the first step on your journey toward long-term health and wellness. Following major weight loss, many people suffer from excess skin and fat that can’t be resolved through traditional diet and exercise. At Beyond Beautiful in Torrance, body contouring after weight loss is a combination of cosmetic procedures that can improve the shape and tone of your body.

What Is Body Contouring?

Body contouring after weight loss in Torrance often involves multiple procedures to address cosmetic concerns that do not respond to diet and exercise. Loose, hanging skin is a common problem that results from shedding a lot of pounds. This issue can only be resolved with body contouring as no amount of gym visits or calorie counting can eliminate excess skin.

Body sculpting after weight loss is often performed to eliminate excess tissue in the arms, buttocks, midsection, back, neck, chin, and thighs. Procedures like liposuction, tummy tucks, arm lifts, and butt lifts can be combined for comprehensive post-weight-loss contouring improvements.

Body contouring after weight loss is extremely versatile and can be customized to meet your individual needs. If you’re ready to take the next step, Dr. Khattab would be happy to discuss additional details during an in-house consultation in Torrance.

Before and After Body Contouring

What to Expect During Your Body Contouring

The consultation: In order to determine if you are a good candidate for body contouring after weight loss in Torrance, you will need to be honest and upfront about every aspect of your health. Your consultation will include a physical examination, as well as an in-depth discussion of your medical history and cosmetic goals. This information will help plastic surgeon Dr. Khattab determine if body contouring is the best option available for you.

Preparation: Before undergoing surgical procedures, you may be required to have blood work done. You will also be instructed to abstain from consuming alcohol and smoking weeks prior to your scheduled surgery.

If you are taking certain medications, you may be asked to temporarily adjust the dosage in preparation for your procedure. You will be given specific pre-treatment instructions during your consultation based on your customized body contouring procedure in Torrance.

Surgery: The length of your surgery will depend on the number of procedures being performed. Body contouring requires general anesthesia to ensure total comfort. During body contouring surgery, incisions may be made to remove excess skin and fat on your arms, abdomen or lower body. Underlying fat and tissue will be reshaped, repositioned or removed. Your skin will be tightened over your new body contour, and excess will be trimmed away. Liposuction surgery may also be used with body contouring.

Recovery: A hospital stay of 1-3 days may be required immediately following your surgery. It is normal to experience some pain, bruising and tenderness. Dr. Khattab will provide you with oral medication to help you manage your discomfort. The length of your recovery will be dictated by the number of procedures performed. Most patients require 2-4 weeks to recover before resuming work and other daily routines. Exercise and heavy lifting should not be resumed for a month or more.

Results: Although body contouring after weight loss cannot give you the perfect body, it can drastically improve your physical appearance. Body contouring is used to effectively address loose, heavy folds of skin, as well as improve the shape and tone of tissue in the thighs, arms, buttocks, abdomen and face. As long as you maintain a healthy weight, the final results of your body contouring procedure will be more or less permanent. Any visible scarring will fade and flatten over the course of 12-18 months.
