Body Contouring After Weight Loss
From his Manhattan and Long Island offices, Dr. Arnold Breitbart offers body contouring surgery to patients who have lost substantial weight after bariatric surgery or weight reduction programs. These patients typically have loose, excess skin involving the abdomen, breasts, thighs, arms, hips, back, and face.
Dr. Breitbart performs many different operations to treat these problems, including abdominoplasty, thigh lift, arm lift, body lift, breast lift, breast augmentation, face lift, and a combination of different body contouring surgeries. The best candidates for body contouring procedures are individuals who have lost a substantial amount of weight and have reached a stable weight through dieting or as a result of bariatric surgery.

Thigh Lift
Arnold Breitbart, M.D., offers thigh lift to patients with excess skin on their upper legs, typically as a result of weight loss or the natural effects of aging.
Through thigh lift surgery at his New York City or Long Island offices, body contouring is achieved by removing excess skin from both the thigh and buttocks. To recontour the inner thigh, Dr. Breitbart will typically make an incision in the groin crease. For surgery on the outer thigh, an incision is usually made from the groin to the back. Both types of incisions are strategically placed so that any scarring after surgery will not be visible, even when wearing a bathing suit.
Patients should plan to spend at least two weeks recovering from thigh lift before returning to work and should not exercise for a month following the procedure.
If you are considering thigh lift surgery, contact Dr. Arnold Breitbart today to schedule a consultation.
Arm Lift
Dr. Arnold Breitbart offers arm lift surgery for patients that want to remove excess, hanging skin and tighten the underlying tissues to give the arm a more defined shape. Arm lift surgery is often performed in conjunction with other body contouring procedures.
Dr. Breitbart typically performs this procedure through an incision that extends from the elbow to the armpit, or just within the armpit, and is often combined with liposuction; however, the location of the incision may vary depending on the extent of surgery.
Patients are usually able to return to work within one to two weeks of the procedure; however, any heavy lifting should be minimized or avoided for several weeks. To find out if you are a candidate for arm lift, contact Dr. Arnold Breitbart today.
