What is Massive Weight Loss?

Massive weight loss refers to a significant reduction in body weight, often achieved through lifestyle changes or bariatric surgery. While weight loss can greatly improve overall health, it often leaves behind excess, loose skin, and stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise. Body contouring procedures are designed to address these concerns by removing excess skin and refining body shape. In many cases, procedures such as liposuction and lift surgeries are combined to achieve more balanced and natural-looking results.

The purpose of a lift surgery, like a tummy tuck or an arm lift, is to remove excess skin that hangs off the body. Liposuction removes only fatty deposits, not skin. To this end, these procedures are sometimes combined if the patient exhibits both excess skin and stubborn pockets of fat in the same area.

Am I A Candidate For Massive Weight Loss Treatment In Bloomfield Hills, MI?

Patients should be at a stable, healthy body weight with no more weight to lose. You should also be a nonsmoker, as smoking can delay healing. Finally, though our doctors take care to hide incisions in the natural contours of your body, you may have some visible scars that will fade over time. Most body contouring patients accept this as a trade-off for their slimmer body shape post-surgery.

Usually, body contouring is chosen by individuals who have lost a large amount of weight and now struggle with excess, loose tissue, and fat. Often, this remaining tissue cannot be managed with diet and exercise and must be removed surgically.

Another common trait of these individuals is a lack of skin elasticity in the treatment area. Now that weight has been lost, the skin does not shrink to its original state.

How Is Massive Weight Loss Treatment Performed In Bloomfield Hills, MI?

Body contouring after massive weight loss is highly customized and may involve one or multiple procedures depending on your needs. Common treatments include tummy tuck, arm lift, thigh lift, back lift, and liposuction to remove excess skin and reshape targeted areas. These procedures are typically performed under general anesthesia and may be completed in stages to ensure safety and optimal results. During your consultation, your surgeon will create a personalized treatment plan based on your anatomy and goals. The goal of treatment is to improve overall body contour while addressing both excess skin and remaining fat.

What Will My Aftercare Steps Be Following My Massive Weight Loss Procedure?

Recovery after body contouring procedures will vary depending on the number and type of treatments performed. Most patients can expect swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the early stages, which can be managed with prescribed medications. You will be advised to limit physical activity and wear compression garments to support healing and maintain your new contours. Many patients return to light activities within a couple of weeks, while more strenuous exercise should be avoided for several weeks. Following your post-operative instructions closely will help ensure proper healing and long-lasting results.

I love Dr. Ellen! She is truly the best. Super professional, transparent & compassionate. Everyone at the hospital had amazing things to say about her which made me more confident in my decision. I'm so glad I chose her for my breast reduction, arm lift, and thigh lift. Her staff is elite, they are attentive with positive energy that makes you feel so much more comfortable about doing the procedure. If you're thinking of choosing Dr. Ellen, please do! You will not be disappointed.

Dr. Boston exceeded every expectation I had for my surgery. My results are natural and was exactly what I was hoping for. She has an exceptional eye and skill as a surgeon, and it truly shows in her work. Dr. Boston is also one of the kindest and most compassionate people you will ever meet. She takes the time to listen, makes you feel comfortable, and genuinely cares about her patients. I am beyond grateful for my experience and my results.

I had a breast lift, implant and liposuction done a little over a week ago. The whole process from my first Google search and phone call until today, 8 days post op has been so professional and nice. I never once felt like just another patient. I did have a few other consults in the Bloomfield hills areas (2 others) and chose Dr. Ellen.
All the staff is welcoming and friendly, quick to answer your questions. I’m very happy with my results so far.

How Long Will Massive Weight Loss Treatment Results Last?

As long as you maintain a healthy diet and exercise after your body contouring procedure, the benefits should be long-lasting. It is not a weight loss solution, however, and the effects of aging and gravity will continue to play a role. Patients who take care of their bodies and understand how body contouring works are usually very satisfied with the results, even years later.
