Show Notes
Imagine losing 50, 60, even 70 kilos and being left carrying around several more kilos in excess skin that no amount of exercise could get rid of.
For a lot of our patients, that's an everyday reality, and that's where today's topic comes in.
We're continuing our Surgery Spotlight series with Dr. Richard Bloom and Dr. Kim Taylor, and today we're talking all things lower body lift.
We talk about what makes an abdominoplasty different from a lower body lift, scar placement, and what recovery is really like when you have a scar going the whole way around your body.
Plus you'll find out just how much excess skin our surgeons have removed from a single patient, and the biggest mistake they think other plastic surgeons make when it comes to planning a lower body lift.
So whether you're considering surgery after massive weight loss, or you're just curious to see what happens behind the operating theater doors, this one is for you.
As always, please rate and review wherever you listen. It really does help people find our little podcast.
