Bariatric Plastic Surgery: A Guide to Cosmetic Surgery After Weight Loss

A trio of U.S. plastic surgeons explain bariatric body contouring procedures (e.g., tummy tuck, upper/lower body lift), benefits, and risks to correct this aesthetic problem. The guide includes color before- and-after patient photos, questions patients should ask their surgeon, a body mass index table, resources, and a glossary.
