Our Atlanta plastic surgeon discusses how to remove excess skin after major weight loss

Dr. Tom Lintner discusses different procedures, such as tummy tuck surgery and arm lifts, that can reduce excess skin leftover after major weight loss.

Atlanta, GA — Weight loss is a commendable achievement, but many individuals are left with excess skin that does not conform to their newly slimmer figure. Whether the weight loss was achieved through bariatric surgery or diet and exercise, this leftover skin can cause a variety of functional and aesthetic concerns. Dr. Tom Lintner, an experienced plastic surgeon in Atlanta, understands the unique concerns faced by his patients and offers personalized solutions tailored to their individual needs.

In addition to aesthetic concerns, excess skin can also contribute to chafing, irritation, rashes, and unpleasant body odor. Using a range of surgical techniques, a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Lintner can help remove redundant skin to reduce discomfort and enhance the overall appearance of a patient’s physique.

Each post-weight loss body contouring plan is customized to address the unique concerns of the patient. Procedures commonly considered for major weight loss patients include:

  1. Tummy tuck and panniculectomy to address excess abdominal skin
  2. Breast lift and reduction to address sagging breast tissues
  3. Arm lift to address excess skin around the upper arms
  4. Thigh lift to address excess skin around the thighs
  5. Posterior body lift to comprehensively restore the buttocks and lower back
  6. Facelift to address sagging facial skin

Dr. Lintner is committed to providing compassionate and patient-centered care. From the initial consultation to post-operative follow-up, he and his team prioritize open communication and support to guide patients through every step of their transformative journey. Dr. Tom Lintner states, “Excess skin after weight loss is a common concern that can impact both physical comfort and self-confidence. My goal is to help patients achieve the body they desire while prioritizing their safety and well-being.”

For individuals seeking comprehensive solutions to excess skin after weight loss, Dr. Lintner recommends consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Finding a trustworthy, experienced provider is often key to obtaining the best possible results.
