i had gastric bypass surgery and i hope next year or as soon as i reach my healthy BMI i am sure i will need a Body Lift.

Q. i had gastric bypass surgery and i hope next year or as soon as i reach my healthy BMI i am sure i will need a Body Lift. I work in Saudi Arabia and only come to the UK on vacation, so if i require surgery i would need to see the surgeon have surgery within 2weeks or would i need longer to recover? Also what are the costs for doing this? Many thanks

A.   Thank you for your enquiry  First of all well done on losing the weight.  You will need to see a Plastic Surgeon who specialises in body lift surgery as you will understand that this is best performed by someone who specialises in this field.   I would recommend that you schedule an appointment with Mr Prashant Govilkar who is one of few Plastic Surgeons in the UK who specialises in this type of surgery.  You will need to leave at least 2 weeks in the UK to recover from the operation but should be fine to travel after that.   To schedule an appointment with Mr Govilkar and get and idea of the cost of surgery please ring us on 01844 214362.   With best wishes   Adrian Richards Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon www.aurora-clinic.co.uk

Lost 8 stone with a gastic band and left with lots of loose skin

Q. Lost 8 stone with a gastic band but am left with lots of . It doesnt really bother me much except from my tummy and thighs. The loose skin sort of hangs down and can get in the way a bit and need to know if something can be done and how much?

A. Thank you for your enquiry.  You are right that this excess skin can be removed.  This is normally done with a tummy tuck or body lift procedure.  The amount of skin removed depeneds on it’s location and in some cases the skin right around the lower body is removed in a procedure known as a body lift.  The thighs can also be lifted at that stage.  If you are considering this form of treatment I think it would be worth contacting one of our patient advisors on 08707 606 555.
