Who this may help
A healthy adult with stable weight and a defined contour or skin-laxity concern may be considered after each area is examined.
Body Contouring
Contour planning grounded in anatomy and timing.
Body contouring after major weight loss treats loose skin that may affect comfort, movement, hygiene, clothing, and body proportion. Because several regions may be involved, ICRS evaluates the body as a coordinated whole and often discusses staged treatment.
