Body Contouring After Weight Loss In Toronto, canada

Scarring will vary depending on the type of surgeries performed. It takes one year for scars to fully mature. Dr. Power will give recommendations on scar management based on your healing, skin pigmentation, and history. In most cases, scars improve over time following scar massage and sun protection. Silicone tape or gel may be an option if you are prone to more problematic scarring.

Results from your body contouring procedures should be long-lasting if your weight remains stable. While you are less active during early healing, it is important to monitor your weight carefully. Unfortunately it is easy to gain weight inadvertently while you are restricted from exercising. Weight fluctuations after body contouring surgery may compromise your results. Weight gain may lead to fatty tissue deposits and soft tissue bulges, while weight loss may result in further loose skin. It is important to maintain a healthy body weight following surgery to ensure that your results will last.

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks of body contouring procedures. Risks will be discussed in detail during your pre-operative appointment as part of the informed consent process.

Dr. Power strongly believes that surgery is only part of the equation in achieving excellent outcomes. Following aftercare instructions is equally important to achieve the results you desire and to lower risk of developing complications.
