Introduction to Skin Tightening after Weight Loss
You’ve done the hard part by losing the weight. Now it’s time to enjoy your new body. Let us be part of your weight loss journey and body transformation.
Many patients seek skin tightening and body contouring procedures following weight loss. Whether it’s the result of lifestyle changes, bariatric surgery, use of semaglutides or GLP1 medications such as Ozempic®, Wegovy, or Zepbound, significant weight loss can lead to changes in appearance and skin laxity.
The mother-daughter surgical team of Dr. Michelle Copeland and Dr. Libby Copeland-Halperin in New York City is known for sophisticated aesthetic results and commitment to safety. We are passionate about incorporating cutting edge technology that will enhance the treatment experience and help patients achieve their goals for a contoured, streamlined appearance. From scarless skin tightening with the innovative Thermage® device, non-invasive CoolSculpting® fat reduction with Zerona® photodynamic therapy or muscle toning with Emsculpt®, or fillers to address facial hollowing after weight loss, to surgical treatments such as limited scar breast reduction and breast lifts, body lifts, arm lifts, thigh lifts, tummy tuck or facelift, Dr. Copeland and Dr. Copeland-Halperin can help you shape your new physique.
Am I a Candidate for Skin Tightening After Weight Loss?
Skin tightening procedures may be the next step for patients who have lost significant weight. If you have maintained your goal weight after weight loss and are in overall good health but are bothered by crepey skin or skin laxity, you may be a good candidate for surgical or non-surgical skin tightening.
What to expect during your consultation?
During your consultation, you will meet with board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Copeland or Dr. Copeland-Halperin to review your weight loss journey, goals, and treatment options. New York plastic surgeons Dr. Michelle Copeland and Dr. Libby Copeland-Halperin have extensive experience with skin tightening treatments such as Thermage® and RF Microneedling®, non-invasive body contouring options such as CoolSculpting® and Emsculpt®, and advanced surgical solutions for body contouring and skin rejuvenation and will work with you to customize a treatment plan. In some cases, surgical options may be the best way to address loose or sagging skin, using limited scar techniques to achieve your goals.
