Excess Skin Removal Surgery

Excess skin removal surgery involves the surgical excision of loose, hanging skin that remains after major weight loss. This procedure can be performed on multiple areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, back, and chest, depending on your needs. It is tailored to restore a more toned, natural appearance and improve your comfort during everyday movements.

This treatment is ideal for individuals who have:

• Excess skin after weight loss
• Loose skin from ageing or excess skin after pregnancy
• Completed their weight loss journey and maintained a stable weight for several months
• Overall good health and realistic expectations

• Abdomen (Tummy Tuck or Fleur De Lis Tummy Tuck)
• Thighs (Thigh Lift)
• Arms (Arm Lift)
• Back (Upper or Lower Back Lift)
• Buttocks
• Breasts (Breast Uplift for women or Chest Reduction for men)

You may be an ideal candidate for excess skin removal if:

• You’ve lost a significant amount of weight (typically 30kg or more)
• You have loose, hanging skin that causes discomfort or hygiene issues
• Your weight has stabilised for at least 6–12 months
• You’re in good general health and a non-smoker
• You have realistic expectations about the outcomes and scars involved

• Restores smoother, firmer body contours
• Improves personal hygiene and skin health
• Increases comfort in clothing and physical activities
• Boosts self-confidence and body image
• Eliminates chafing, rashes, and skin irritation
