Restore Firmness. Regain Confidence
After significant weight loss, pregnancy, or natural aging, excess skin can remain behind—causing both aesthetic and functional challenges. At Zeal Plastic Surgery Clinic, our excess skin removal surgeries are designed to remove sagging skin, tighten the body’s silhouette, and restore comfort and mobility. Whether it's the abdomen, arms, thighs, back, or chest, our tailored approach ensures natural, long-lasting results.
  • What concerns it addresses:

    • Hanging, sagging, or wrinkled skin after weight loss
    • Discomfort from chafing, rashes, or hygiene issues
    • Emotional distress due to loose skin in visible areas
    • Difficulty wearing fitted clothing
    • Loss of body definition despite reaching ideal weight

    This procedure is highly customized and can involve one or more areas of the body, including:

    • Tummy Tuck, Arm Lift, Thigh Lift, Lower Body Lift, Back Lift or Chest Lift
  • You may be a good candidate if you:

    • Have maintained a stable weight for at least 6 months
    • Are in good general health and not planning future pregnancies
    • Have realistic expectations about scarring and recovery
    • Experience physical or emotional discomfort due to excess skin
    • Are committed to a healthy lifestyle and long-term results
