You have achieved great things. You have lost weight, changed your life, fought through highs and lows. But what often remains is a shell: excess skin, excess tissue, friction, limitations – where your new self should actually be free.
The Weight Loss Surgery at BONITAS is more than just body contouring. It is the aesthetic and functional completion of a profound transformation. Specialist physician The Plastic Surgeon accompanies you with surgical expertise, a holistic view – and genuine respect for your achievement.
Post-bariatric surgery includes plastic-surgical procedures for body contouring after massive weight loss – e.g., after gastric reduction, a gastric bypass, or through personal lifestyle changes.
The goal is to permanently eliminate excess skin, sagging tissue, and functional discomfort – for a body image that reflects your new life reality.
You are ready for post-bariatric surgery if:
Depending on the individual situation, several zones can be tightened, contoured, and harmonized:
| Body Region | Possible Procedures |
|---|---|
| Abdomen | Abdominoplasty with muscle reconstruction |
| Breast (m/f) | Breast lift, possibly with implant or gynecomastia surgery |
| Arms | Arm lift |
| Legs | Thigh lift |
| Back & Flanks | Back lift, Body lift |
| Buttocks | Buttock lift or autoaugmentation with autologous tissue |
BONITAS offers tailor-made overall concepts that are medically sound and aesthetically coordinated – no standard surgeries, but true body composition.
Yes – depending on health status, surgical region, and objectives. Common combinations:
At BONITAS, we strictly adhere to safety, anesthesia time, regenerative capacity, and aesthetic balance. Major changes require strategic planning – and no quick fixes.
Post-bariatric surgery is not vanity – but a worthy completion of your transformation.
Not necessarily. Often, treatment occurs in 2–3 procedures, depending on the region, resilience, and desired result.
“Post-bariatric” refers to the state after massive weight reduction – usually as a result of bariatric surgery such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy. Subsequently, excess skin often occurs on the abdomen, arms, thighs, or chest. Post-bariatric surgery includes targeted lifting procedures to restore form, function, and quality of life.
A BMI under 30 is generally a prerequisite for reconstructive surgery after massive weight loss. With a higher BMI, the risk of wound healing disorders and complications increases. It is also crucial that the weight has remained stable for at least 6 months. At BONITAS, we check in a personal consultation whether all prerequisites are met – medically and aesthetically.
During an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), excess skin and subcutaneous tissue are removed – usually between 1 and 3 kilograms. However, the actual focus is not on weight reduction, but on the functional and aesthetic improvement of body contour. Many patients report increased mobility, better skin care, and enhanced self-esteem after the procedure.
If you are considering medical aesthetic treatment, schedule your consultation for an honest assessment tailored to your needs.
