3 Signs You Might Need Plastic Surgery For Loose Skin

Added on 9th April 2021 in Blog

Having plastic surgery for loose skin is a common procedure. People may have loose skin on their body for many different reasons, one of which is as a result of losing a significant amount of weight. Loose skin can occur all over the body and plastic surgery to remove loose skin (also known as body contouring) can help to improve the appearance of the body as well as helping with health and hygiene issues. 

You should always make sure that you are having plastic surgery for loose skin for the right reasons, so here are three signs that could indicate whether it is right for you! 

 

You Are Experiencing Hygiene Issues

When you have a large amount of excess skin, it can be difficult to maintain the required level of personal hygiene, meaning some people feel their only option is plastic surgery for loose skin. The skin hosts trillions of different bacteria, which are normal, however folds of skin provide the ideal environment for these bacteria to grow in excess. The humidity and heat within these folds, along with the excess bacteria, can cause an unpleasant smell. 

Some people are able to manage this by regularly changing sweaty clothes, keeping folds dry or washing regularly, however other people find it difficult. So, hygiene issues are one reason you might need plastic surgery for loose skin. 

 

You Have Developed Health Issues 

As well as hygiene issues, having loose skin can cause health problems, too. Loose skin is common on the stomach, arms, back, breasts and legs and is particularly problematic in these areas. The humidity and heat in folds of excess skin can lead to rashes and infections as well as an unpleasant smell. 

Again, this is manageable for some people, however it can be the reason many people need to have plastic surgery for loose skin. 

 

You Simply Want Plastic Surgery For Loose Skin

Loose skin can make daily life harder in many different ways, as it can impact people’s mental health and it can also cause severe self confidence issues. Aside from the health and hygiene issues, many people have plastic surgery for loose skin simply because they want to improve the appearance of it. 

Many people who have excess skin have lost a lot of weight, so it can be disheartening to be left with loose skin that is near impossible to get rid of through the conventional method of exercise. It is important that when considering having plastic surgery for loose skin, that you aren’t having the surgery in order to please someone else, but it has been fully your decision. 

 

Final Thoughts

There are many different reasons people might need plastic surgery for loose skin, so if this is a procedure you are interested in, please visit our excess skin page to find out more information or contact us to book in for a consultation.
