Has anyone had a panniculectomy?

Hi... I didn't realize how it worked... so I now realize I should have put that as my title and not in the subject... Sorry..... I know most or maybe all of you are here for bariatric surgery support, but didn't know if there was a place on here to discuss other "obese" type surgeries. If anyone has had a panniculectomy, I'd love to know with what Dr. and the after affects of such a surgery. Thanks

Hi again Gail... just go to Forums tab and select Plastic Surgery.........you should find what you need there. I think they have a message board too, so there may be some folks who have already experienced this and can offer more help. Shel

I had one 1 1/2 years ago and it was the greatest thing for me. I also had brachioplasty (skin taken off my arms) - that was awesome too. Both surgeries were successful and I love not having (10 lbs of skin) hanging down to my knees. I did this in MInnesota but don't hesitate to find a good (board certified) plastic surgeon in your area.
