Plastic Surgery After Weight Loss
Losing a lot of weight is an admirable accomplishment, whether from bariatric surgery or diet and exercise. Many women and men find themselves unsatisfied and disappointed because their skin sags and hangs instead of conforming tightly to their slimmer body contours. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Fady Sinno has extensive experience addressing the specialized needs of his post bariatric (weight loss) plastic surgery patients, who visit him from Columbia and Baltimore, Maryland, and other nearby cities at his plastic surgery practice in Ellicott City.

Meet Dr. Fady Sinno
Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
Dr. Fady Sinno provides individual attention and personal care to each of his patients. His warm, personal approach and exceptional results make him a top choice for Baltimore, MD, area men and women who want to look and feel their best.
Meet Dr. Sinno
During your consultation, Dr. Sinno will take the time to understand your concerns, answer your questions, and create a customized set of procedures that will work best for you and your body. He understands the specific physical and psychological concerns many post weight loss patients have and strives to support them through focused attention to individualized care and safety.
What to Expect
Dr. Sinno frequently performs post weight loss plastic surgery in a hospital setting for optimal patient comfort and safety. Most patients receive general anesthesia to ensure they are as comfortable as possible during the procedure. Local anesthesia and IV sedation are also possible alternatives, depending on the extent of the surgery.
Most post weight loss patients undergo a series of surgeries that consist of a few procedures at a time and are staggered over several weeks or months to optimize surgical safety and to allow enough time to heal.
Post Weight Loss Surgery Recovery
After your plastic surgery procedure, treated areas will likely be sore, swollen, and bruised. You may need to wear compression garments for the first 2 to 4 weeks to encourage proper healing and minimize swelling. Many patients can return to non-strenuous activity, including work, about 1 to 2 weeks following surgery. You’ll be provided with specific post-surgical instructions tailored to the type of surgery performed. While scars cannot be avoided with plastic surgery, Dr. Sinno uses surgical techniques that minimize the number of incisions and strives to make the incisions where they will be concealed by clothing.
Results
Our plastic surgery patients are usually thrilled to finally achieve a more firm, sculpted body after their significant weight loss. These procedures can make a dramatic improvement in your appearance, but you will need to remain at a consistent, healthy weight and stay physically active to maintain your results.
