Complementary Procedures
Frequently Asked Questions
In South Jordan, we approach body contouring as a group of procedures that remove loose skin and reshape your body after major weight loss. Surgeons can treat your belly, arms, thighs, breasts, or back. Our surgeons will explain which procedures fit your goals.
Before moving forward with body contouring after weight loss in South Jordan, our surgeons want your weight to remain stable for a few months. This helps keep your results safe and long-lasting.
However, the right timing depends on you. Avant Plastics will review your health and weight history to plan the optimal approach to treatment.
Sometimes, but a comprehensive approach is not a given. Safety comes first, so your surgeon might split the work into several stages with separate surgery dates. Avant Plastics builds a plan that balances your goals with a safe recovery.
Recovery depends on which areas you treat. Most patients experience swelling, soreness, and bruising for a few weeks. You may also wear a compression garment and have small drains for a short time.
However, each day should feel better than the last. Avant Plastics will give you a clear recovery plan, so you know what to expect and when to return to your usual activities.
