Factors To Consider Before Body Contouring Westchester County NY

By Paul Cox


The next step people often think about after finally losing weight is body contouring procedures. It goes without saying that one must consider both the risks and benefits of having these procedures done. These procedures have been done a million times and it has been found that the benefits are more significant than the risks. It is therefore very important to know the effects that could come about from Body Contouring Westchester county NY.

These procedures can improve your motivation and make you more determined to stay thin, they can also make clothes feel more comfortable, boost the physical confidence and self esteem and just generally improve the quality of life. Some of the inherent risks arising from these procedures are as highlighted below.

The most common type f body contouring is the stomach lift. This is because hanging skin on the stomach is the most noticeable for people who have undergone weight loss. A belt lipectomy as well as a panniculectommy can be performed. This will aid in tucking in the loose skin and the surgery scar will be hidden beneath the line of the underwear.

Thirdly is it important to mention to your surgeon if you are a smoker. The reason for this is that smoking hinders the body from healing and this can bring about complications after surgery. You are therefore advised to stop smoking for sometime before surgery until when you are healed.

Another effect is the clotting of blood. Through this procedure one may suffer clot formation like thrombosis but this can be prevented by keeping the surgical procedure short and also breaking down the full body procedure into parts where one gets time to heal after every procedure. Walking and staying active will also help prevent clotting.

The other common procedure is the lower body lift. This procedure mainly focuses on the buttocks and thighs. It is done by eliminating excess fat through a procedure known as liposuction. The skin that remains is then tightened from the groin down to the knee around an incision. Sometimes a hip to hip incision can be done so as to lift the buttocks flesh. This achieves contoured and tighter buttocks.

Alteration of the skin tone is also a common effect that can cause concern. After skin removal, the body tries to adjust to the new skin dimensions. This may alter the smoothness as well as the tone of ones skin as in some cases there will be a slight sagging of the tightened skin. A common complaint is a cellulite like appearance on the skin particularly where the loose skin has been removed.

As stated earlier, these procedures are quite invasive and anesthesia is involved. Just like any other surgical procedure, it is accompanied by several risks but they are manageable and therefore can either be controlled, reduced or even prevented. Risks like surgery scars can be removed, blood clots can be prevented, and people that want to undergo surgery and suffer from medical conditions can be advised by their doctors of other alternatives.
