How We Help: Customized Body Contouring for Post-Weight Loss Patients
Every person’s body is different, so our approach is customized to fit your needs, lifestyle, and priorities. We create solutions that ensure safe, balanced, and natural-looking results.
Common Procedures for Post-Weight Loss Patients
Each area of the body is affected differently by weight loss, and we offer multiple procedures to help address your unique concerns.
1. Abdominal Skin & Waist: Tummy Tucks & Body Lifts
For men and women with excess skin around the midsection, a tummy tuck or body lift can tighten, smooth, and reshape the abdomen and waistline. Muscles that have been stretched out, rectus diastasis and any hernia can be repaired at the same time. Many patients also opt for liposuction (such as lipo360) at the same time to fully contour their waist and trunk.
- Standard Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) – Removes loose skin and tightens the abdominal muscles
- Extended Tummy Tuck – Addresses skin laxity around the flanks and lower back
- Body Lift (Belt Lipectomy) – The most comprehensive option, lifting and reshaping the entire lower body, including the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks
Should you get a tummy tuck, lipo, or a body lift? Dr. Turin breaks down the differences, benefits, and who is a good candidate for each procedure. Whether you have loose skin on your stomach, sides, or lower body, this video will help you decide the best approach to achieve your goals.
2. Arms: Brachioplasty (Arm Lift)
Weight loss often leaves behind loose, hanging skin on the upper arms, and many patients still have stubborn pockets of fat there which can really look less than ideal in short sleeve or sleeveless shirts and tops.
- An arm lift (brachioplasty) removes excess skin and tightens the upper arms, restoring a sleek, firm look
- Incisions are placed on the posterior portion of the inner arms, where they are less visible, and fade with time. We do liposuction at the same time to remove any stubborn fat pockets to create a smooth and athletic upper arm contour.
In this video, Dr. Turin explains how the procedure works, the expected recovery time, and what results you can expect from an arm lift after weight loss.
3. Thighs: Thigh Lift (Thighplasty)
Loose skin on the thighs can cause chafing, discomfort, and difficulty finding well-fitting clothes. In warmer weather (which is effectively year round here in Arizona), shorts and short clothes can become a big challenge because of this.
- A thigh lift removes excess skin and reshapes the inner thighs, while also improving the front and backs of the thighs at the same time. We use a combination of liposuction and skin removal to get you the smoothest and most contoured thighs possible.
- Incisions are discreetly placed along the inner thighs to minimize visibility
4. Breast Surgery After Weight Loss: Shape and Size
Women experience significant changes in the breasts after weight loss, with many patients telling us they feel less feminine as their breasts look more ‘sad’ with every pound lost. Patients almost always see a loss of volume and sagging, often times with the nipples starting to point to the floor or towards each other in severe cases. The shape of the breasts can be challenging when finding elegant bras and swimwear to put on, and is very often a big issues for massive weight loss patients. Thankfully, we can reliably correct this with a breast lift.
5. Face & Neck: Restoring Facial Contours After Weight Loss
Significant weight loss can also affect facial structure, leading to:
- Loose, sagging skin on the lower face, jawline, and neck
- A hollowed or gaunt appearance in the lower lids and upper cheeks due to lost facial fat
- Drooping eyelids or deep folds around the mouth and cheeks
To restore definition and balance, we offer:
- Neck Lift & Lower Facelift – Removes excess skin, tightens the jawline, and restores youthful contours to the neck
- Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) – Addresses sagging skin around the eyes for a refreshed, rested look
- Facial Fat Grafting – Uses your own fat to restore lost volume in the cheeks, temples, or under the eyes

Male Body Contouring After Weight Loss
Men still encounter the same issues with loose skin around the trunk, neck, and limbs, the aesthetic goals are very special for our male patients. We focus on creating a masculine, sculpted appearance with a maximally narrow waist, flat stomach and defined chest. We focus on these areas for most patients and use these as a jumping off point before moving forward with a custom plan.
- Chest Tightening & Gynecomastia Correction – Removes excess skin and gland (gynecomastia) and sculpts a defined, masculine chest
- Abdominal Skin Removal – Removes hanging skin to reveal underlying muscle definition
- Mons Lift – Addresses sagging in the pubic area, restoring proportions and function
- Body Lift – Comprehensive removal of excess skin on the waist, lower back, and thighs
Massive weight loss affects men differently. This video explores male-focused procedures such as male chest tightening, abdominal skin removal (panniculectomy or tummy tuck), mons lift, and full-body contouring to create a firmer, more masculine physique. Find out how these surgeries address problem areas for men and what kind of results you can expect.

Your journey begins with Dr. Turin’s comprehensive, personalized approach that ensures exceptional results and unmatched support throughout your transformation.
The Dr. Turin Consultation Experience

- Conduct a thorough physical examination of all areas of concern
- Review your weight loss history and current health status
- Discuss your aesthetic goals and lifestyle considerations
- Explain which procedures will achieve your desired results

Pre-Operative Planning & Support
Before your surgery, you’ll meet with Dr. Turin again during your pre-operative appointment. This ensures you’re fully prepared, comfortable, and confident about your upcoming procedure. If you have additional questions or concerns, we encourage scheduling extra consultations or phone calls to talk things over until you’re 100% clear on EVERYTHING – your peace of mind is paramount.
Advanced Anesthesia Options for Your Comfort
Unlike many practices that require general anesthesia for all procedures, Dr. Turin specializes in offering multiple anesthesia options:
Twilight Sedation: Light sedation that keeps you comfortable and relaxed while maintaining your ability to respond and breathe naturally.
Local/Awake Procedures: Many body contouring procedures can be performed while you’re awake with just oral sedation, offering:
- Reduced risks and complications
- Faster recovery times
- Ability to see and approve results during surgery
- No post-anesthesia grogginess or nausea
Dr. Turin will recommend the safest, most comfortable option based on your specific procedures and preferences.
Unparalleled Post-Operative Care & Coaching
Your relationship with Dr. Turin intensifies after surgery, not diminishes. Here’s the comprehensive follow-up care that sets Koda apart:
Day After Surgery: You’ll return for your first post-operative lymphatic massage, where usually Dr. Turin will personally examine your healing progress and ensure you’re recovering optimally.
Ongoing Massage Appointments: As our post-op care all takes place in the same clinic, Dr. Turin will be available during your lymphatic massage sessions to monitor your progress, address any concerns, and adjust your recovery plan as needed.
Structured Follow-Up Schedule:
- 1 Week Post-Op: In-person appointment with Dr. Turin
- 2 Weeks Post-Op: Detailed progress evaluation and guidance
- 4 Weeks Post-Op: Assessment of healing and activity clearance
- 12 Weeks Post-Op: Major milestone evaluation and result optimization
- 6 Months Post-Op: Final result assessment and long-term planning
Continuous Coaching & Support
Throughout your recovery, Dr. Turin provides hands-on coaching that goes far beyond typical surgical care:
- Recovery Optimization: Guidance on movement, compression garments, and healing techniques
- Result Enhancement: Tips for maintaining and maximizing your surgical outcomes
- Lifestyle Integration: Advice on diet, exercise, and habits that support your new body
- Emotional Support: Understanding the psychological aspects of major body transformation
- Problem-Solving: Immediate attention to any concerns or complications
