You won the weight loss battle, and you’re ready to celebrate this huge landmark in your journey! But wait; what’s all this hanging skin, and why am I noticing all these other changes I didn’t anticipate? The joy of losing weight can be followed by discouragement when we notice all the excess hanging skin that’s often left behind when our bodies change so dramatically. We see many patients at FORM who worked incredibly hard to lose that weight wanting to find a solution to contour, lift and trim so they can truly enjoy the results of their hard work––especially with the rise of many new weight loss medications entering the Canadian market. So let’s celebrate all that hard work by highlighting everything you love about your body and addressing any concerns you have.
Is post-weight loss surgery right for you?
Congratulations on your weight loss journey! It’s a remarkable landmark that takes dedication and perseverance. You’re not alone in seeking a surgical or treatment solution following weight loss. Many men and women feel frustrated by the sagging or stretched skin and uneven body contours left behind after significant changes. By booking a consultation, you’ll meet with a skilled surgeon who can assess what’s possible, answer your questions, and explore options to contour, lift, smooth, tighten, or sculpt the areas you’re concerned about.
We typically prefer to perform these surgeries on patients who are within 10-15 pounds of their goal weight. This is because we want you to enjoy the benefits of the surgery knowing that you’re not going to end up in a similar situation with more loose tissue after losing another 40-50 pounds.

This male patient came to us after significant weight loss, with concerns about hanging skin and loose tissue on his abdomen and chest that distracted from his incredible weight loss achievement. A combination of chest reduction (Gynecomastia) to contour the chest, and abdominoplasty including liposuction to sculpt away excess remaining fat, resulted in a smoother, tighter appearance.
What surgical options do I have following significant weight loss?
After significant weight loss, many people want to address loose skin and other changes. From head to toe, you’ve undergone a significant change and your body might have areas you’re looking to address as a result. Whether it’s loose skin that won’t bounce back or contours that don’t quite match your vision, we offer comprehensive solutions to empower the next step of your journey.
Restore Your Body’s Contours
Loose or hanging skin? It’s not only normal, it’s totally treatable. Advanced body contouring techniques from our skilled surgical team can help you achieve the toned look you’ve worked so hard for.
- Abdomen: A tummy tuck, often combined with liposuction, removes excess fat and skin from the lower abdomen while tightening weak abdominal muscles for a smoother appearance.
- Arms: An arm lift can firm up loose skin and contour away excess or skin and extra fat in the upper arms.
- Thighs: Surgical solutions can lift and smooth the upper thighs to sculpt away loose or hanging skin.
- The whole body: a Body Lift procedure can target a myriad of target areas in one surgical experience: the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, and outer thighs can be contoured, smoothed, and tightened.
Need a lift? Breast procedures can be restorative following massive weight loss
It’s natural for breast shape, size and positioning to be altered by changes in weight. We offer a variety of surgical options to enhance size and volume, improve shape, and lift breasts.
- Looking to restore the volume you’ve lost? Breast augmentation restores fullness and offers an opportunity to choose your ideal breast shape.
- Changes in weight shift the breasts and can result in sagging breasts or excess tissue. A Breast Lift elevates sagging tissue and repositions the breasts and nipples for a more uplifted, feminine silhouette.
- A Breast Reduction can help rebalance proportions for a changing body size or type. Our expert surgeons can reduce breasts to a size that’s right for you, getting rid of excess tissue and repositioning the breast in a flattering way.
Put your best face forward: our faces change with weight loss, too.
When we talk about weight loss we’re often talking about our abdomens or thighs, but faces change dramatically with weight fluctuations. And sometimes, the changes to our face after weight loss don’t match the revitalized way our bodies feel! We can restore your look to enjoy every aspect of your weight loss. At FORM Face + Body, we offer a combination of both surgical and non-invasive solutions like Face Lifts, Neck Lift, skin tightening and lifting treatments, comprehensive skincare plans with personalized consultations, and much more.
