This year’s season of The Biggest Loser shocked viewers with the extremely dramatic weight loss achieved by many of the show’s contestants. For some, overcoming the obstacle of weight loss only leads to yet another problem – overwhelming amounts of loose, sagging and excess skin on the abdomen.
One contestant, Francelina Morillo, recently talked openly about her next steps for skin removal. Going from 350 pounds to 190 pounds left her with sagging skin that cannot be lifted or toned, despite her commitment to a healthy lifestyle. “It is a big discomfort to me when it comes to working out, choosing an outfit, and just seeing all the progress that I have made,” she told viewers. “Surgery is an important part of my continued success. I have heard many stories where people couldn’t ‘see’ all their progress because of the excess skin, and that inevitably lead to depression and, unfortunately, gaining a lot of it back.”
Fortunately for our Denver patients, there is a solution to turn this devastating problem into the tight, toned tummy you’ve always desired. A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, restores a slim, trim waistline by removing excess skin and fat for a smoother, flatter and fit appearance.
Atagi Plastic Surgery can help you maintain and improve your new body with renewed and restored confidence. Don’t let excess skin get in the way of loving the body you’ve worked so hard to achieve!
