Yes, Yes and Yes. Most do. Go to the Plastic Surgery Message Board on this web site, and you will find so many answers to your questions.

Geez....No, not everyone has plastic surgery. It just depends on your body and what is acceptable to you.

Dear Mike, After massive weight loss, there is usually an excessive amount of residual skin. Some people are lucky, particularly younger people, who have excellent skin elasticity. The majority of post-bariatric patients do benefit from removal of the extra skin after their weight loss has stabilized. I recommend to wait until the BMI is under 30.

How do we get to the Plastic Surgery Msg Board on this site? I made it to the msg board, but didn't see any way to get to that specific part. I am not computer savvy. Thanks for any info, as I'm really interested in finding out additional info on MUCHO NEEDED plastic surgery.
