Pnniculectomy

Hi, Does anyone know of any surgeon that performs panniculectomy surgery? I live near Belleville but will travel. thanks so much.

There are numerous plastic surgeons in the Toronto Area. One is Dr. Chivers and another place is in Vaughan called Usculpt.

There's a Facebook Group called Ontario,Canada Plastic Surgery. Tons of good stuff, recommendations and information in this Group.

Hi !! I had mine done 2 years ago by Dr. Ma who is located in Waterloo. She is awesome. Did you get approval yet from OHIP?

Hi,

I had my panniculectomy done by Dr. M.Elahi in 2014, I got coverage from OHIP, & I had a large hernia so the muscle repair was covered also, so I only really had to pay for the lipo. He works out of Scarborough General Hospital but also has his own private surgical clinic in North York. He removed 13 lbs of skin & belly fat. (Grade 3 pannus). Its amazing how much my life improved with a new found confidence & joy to tackle the world.

Good Luck,

Many surgeons are not doing just pure panni due to the poor results. Success really depends on how you carry your excess skin. I use Usculpt in Vaughan for all my procedures. Advantage of using a private clinic is they have their own state of the art OR. As well as they can use upgraded sutures, dressings etc... that are not available in hospital. Consults are free they also have a website. Just make sure whoever you see specialises in WLS patients.
