Lower Body Lift After Major Weight Loss

This 37-year-old woman had lost 160 pounds with gastric bypass surgery to bring her weight down from 375 to 215 pounds. She needed plastic surgery after such a major weight loss to remove her excess skin and to give her a shape. Dr. Sterry performed a lower body lift at his New York City practice for transformative results.
