Body Lift After Gastric Bypass Surgery

This patient lost over 100 pounds after gastric bypass surgery. She had a large amount of loose hanging skin around her abdomen , side, and back. No amount of exercise can remove this hanging skin. Therefore, the only solution to this problem is to remove the skin,  by performing the Body Lift Procedure.  Dr. Rodriguez performed the case in his AAASF accredited surgery center in Baltimore, Maryland. The procedure included a tummy tuck, butt lift, and outer thigh lift in one procedure.
