The Good and the Bad of Weight Loss Surgery
Let us review the national statistics regarding weight loss surgery. The good news is that over 90% of patients will lose their unwanted weight soon after surgery. The bad news, only 50 % of patients will maintain their ideal weight at 5 years! Moreover, only 30% of clients are able to complete their post-bariatric skin reduction surgery. This means that over 70% of patients do not cross the finish line!
Why is Skin reduction surgery necessary?
Following weight loss surgery, patients will undeniably feel better from a medical standpoint. This is because their incidence of multiple medical ailments will be improved as follows:
- Lose 20 pounds, and acid reflux reduces
- Lose 30 pounds and blood pressure drops
- Lose 40 pounds, and diabetes reverses
However, these health improvements do not address the psychological trauma of living with the candle stick appearance. The candle stick syndrome describes the deforming appearance of severe skin accumulation that drapes throughout your body following extreme weight loss. The deforming appearance of the candle stick will prevent you from reaching the final pinnacle of happiness that is associated with being able to enjoy the simple things in life like going for a swim in the pool sporting a two-piece bikini or casually walking around the house in your undergarments.
These simple daily routines will become a conundrum for patients who do not complete their journey. Unfortunately, the loss of all the excess fat only results in the nuisance of extensive skin redundancy. This skin can be deforming and cause serious psychological concerns, coined the candle stick syndrome!

- Comprehensive History and Physical Examination: Before undergoing weight loss surgery, it's essential to have a thorough history and physical examination. This step ensures that the patient is a suitable candidate for the procedure. Dr. Moein will review the patient's medical history, including any previous surgeries, allergies, medications, and any existing medical conditions. A physical examination will assess the patient's current health status and identify any potential risks or complications that might arise during the surgery.

Appropriate tests will be collected by our expert staff to rule out conditions like anemia, infections, clotting disorders, liver and kidney function, and other potential concerns that might need addressing before the surgery.

This test ensures that the patient's heart is healthy enough to undergo surgery and can handle the stress and changes that come with significant weight loss.

- Nutritional Education: Understanding nutrition is crucial for the success of weight loss surgery. Patients will learn about the dietary changes they'll need to make post-surgery, the importance of vitamins and minerals, and how to make healthy food choices to ensure long-term success.
