Post-Bariatric Surgery in Madrid

After bariatric surgery or significant weight loss, many people face a new challenge: excess skin and loss of firmness in various areas of the body. Post-bariatric surgery aims to redefine the body contour, improve skin function, and restore the patient’s self-esteem.

At Clínica 3 de Mayo, we offer a comprehensive range of personalized reconstructive and aesthetic procedures for those who have lost significant weight and wish to restore their body’s harmony.

What is post-bariatric surgery?

It is a set of surgical procedures designed to remove excess skin, correct sagging, and improve body shape after rapid and massive weight loss. The skin, having been stretched for years, does not always regain its elasticity, causing folds and sagging that can affect mobility, hygiene, and body image.

Dr. Jesús Lago explains post-bariatric surgery:

How long should I wait after bariatric surgery before having surgery?

It is advisable to wait between 12 and 18 months, or until your weight has stabilized for at least 6 months in a row.

Can I have multiple surgeries at the same time?

Yes, in many cases it is possible to combine two or more procedures in the same operation (e.g., abdominoplasty + thigh lift), provided that the patient’s health allows it.

How is the recovery going?

It depends on the type of surgery, but most require between 2 and 4 weeks off work. The use of compression garments, drains, and strict post-operative follow-up are recommended.

Will there be any scars?

Yes, but they are placed in strategic areas so that they are discreet and fade over time. We also offer treatments to improve their appearance.
