Post-Ozempic/ GLP-1 Body Treatments

Parsippany, NJ

Introduction to Post-Ozempic/ GLP-1 Body Treatments

Significant weight loss is a huge accomplishment, but for many patients, there is a frustrating next chapter that no one really talks about. Ozempic/GLP-1 clients, or anyone who has lost a significant amount of weight, sometimes notice loose, hanging skin. Post-Ozempic or GLP-1 body treatments help clients address just that.

At The Plastic Surgery Institute of New Jersey in Parsippany, Dr. M. Shuja Shafqat focuses on refining those results so your outward appearance actually matches the effort you’ve put in.

What Is Post-Ozempic/GLP-1 Body Treatment?

Post-Ozempic or GLP-1 body treatments at The Plastic Surgery Institute of New Jersey are customized treatment plans that include one or more body-contouring surgeries to remove excess skin and improve overall shape after significant weight loss.

When the body loses weight quickly, the skin often does not have the elasticity to adjust. That is what leads to folds, sagging, and uneven contours. These will help remove that excess skin and tighten the underlying tissue for a smoother, more balanced result.

Commonly Utilized Procedures

Arm Lift

An arm lift will help with the upper arms by removing excess skin and tightening the remaining tissue to achieve toned-looking arms.

Bra Line Back Lift

A bra line back lift will target the upper and mid-back, where folds of skin can form along the bra line. By removing the excess tissue, clients will get a smoother contour.

Thigh Lift

A thigh lift will help clients address sagging along their inner or outer thighs. It will remove any excess skin and help reshape the legs for a more toned look.

Lower Body Lift or Tummy Tuck

A lower body lift or tummy tuck will help clients remove excess abdominal skin, skin around the waistline, and tighten the underlying muscles, giving them a flatter, firmer midsection.

What to Expect on the Day of Post-Ozempic/GLP-1 Body Treatment

Your day of surgery will depend on which procedures you choose to have performed and how extensive your specific surgical plan is. Some patients will undergo a single procedure, while others may have multiple procedures to address several areas.

Incisions will be placed to remove excess skin and reshape the area. The underlying tissue may be tightened to support long-term results. Once the excess is removed, the remaining skin will be redraped to give you a smoother contour.

Post-Ozempic/GLP-1 Body Treatment Recovery

Recovery depends on how many areas are treated and how involved the procedures are. Some patients are back to light activity within a couple of weeks, while more extensive plans may require additional downtime.

Regardless, all post-Ozempic/GLP-1 treatment clients can expect some swelling, bruising, and tightness early on.

A compression garment can help with this and should be worn to support healing.

Clients can expect their results to continue improving over time as swelling subsides and tissues adjust.
