After Weight Loss Treatment Options
Restoring Balance After Weight Loss
Losing a significant amount of weight is a transformative achievement. Whether through healthy lifestyle changes, bariatric surgery, or GLP-1 medications like Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Mounjaro®, or Zepbound®, your hard work deserves to shine through. Yet many people find that dramatic weight loss leaves behind loose skin, hollowed features, or areas of the body that don't quite match their new shape.
At New Horizons Center for Cosmetic Surgery in Chicago, board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Gregory Turowski and Dr. Aditya Sood offer advanced surgical and nonsurgical treatments to help you complete your transformation. Dr. Turowski is widely regarded as a leader in cosmetic surgery, and together with Dr. Sood, the team provides elegant, natural-looking results tailored to your body and goals.
Common Concerns After Weight Loss
After significant weight loss, it's normal to notice:
- Loose, sagging skin on the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and arms
- Deflated or drooping breasts
- Laxity along the upper arms ("bat wings")
- Sagging buttocks ("Ozempic butt")
- Hollow cheeks, jowls, or loose skin along the jawline and neck ("Ozempic face")
These changes can affect both confidence and comfort. However, with the right treatment plan, they are highly correctable.
Surgical Options for Lasting Results
When skin and tissues no longer return to their original shape on their own after weight loss, surgical procedures are often the most effective way to restore contour and proportion.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tummy tuck tightens loose abdominal skin and muscles to create a smoother, firmer midsection.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits that remain after weight loss, refining body proportions.
Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover combines multiple body and breast procedures in one surgery for comprehensive, customized results.
Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
A breast lift elevates and reshapes sagging breasts, restoring a more youthful position and firmness.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation restores lost volume or enhances breast size using implants for fuller, more balanced proportions.
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction reshapes the breasts and improves comfort and symmetry by reducing heavy or uncomfortable breast tissue.
Facelift
A facelift corrects hollow cheeks, jowls, and sagging in the lower face to restore a youthful, natural appearance.
Neck Lift
A neck lift tightens lax skin and muscle banding in the neck to create a smoother, more defined neck line.
Nonsurgical Options for Subtle Refinement
For mild to moderate concerns, or to enhance surgical outcomes, nonsurgical treatments can restore volume, smooth the skin's appearance, and refine your look with little to no downtime.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers replenish lost facial volume, enhance cheekbones, and refine jawline definition.
BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic smooths out lines, balances facial expressions, and minimizes the appearance of neck bands.
Ultherapy®
Ultherapy® uses ultrasound technology to lift and tighten skin on the face, neck, and décolletage.
EMSCULPT NEO®
EMSCULPT NEO® combines radiofrequency and electromagnetic energy to burn fat and build muscle tone.
Fraxel® Laser Resurfacing
Fraxel® laser resurfacing stimulates collagen and repairs sun damage to improve skin tone, texture, and radiance.
IPL Therapy
IPL treatments target discoloration, redness, and sun damage, offering clearer, more evenly toned skin.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels resurface and rejuvenate skin by improving texture, tone, and overall brightness.
