Why might I want to have plastic surgery after bariatric surgery?

The most rapidly growing field in plastic surgery is called post-bariatric surgery body contouring. We have seen a meteoric rise in procedures such as gastric bypass surgery and Lap-Band surgery. The proliferation of bariatric surgery has resulted in tens of thousands of people who have lost over a hundred pounds.

While the health benefits of weight loss are life saving, unfortunately the cosmetic damage done to the body during the gaining of weight is usually irreversible. During weight gain, the epidermis expands rapidly; the dermis, however, cannot grow as rapidly. It actually splits, creating a stretch mark.

A new stretch mark looks reddish or blue, because the translucent epidermis allows the underlying blood vessels to be seen. The new stretch mark is inflamed and red for the first year. Stretch marks are permanent.

No treatment other than surgical removal is known. Overstretched skin has limited ability to retract. Rapid weight loss affords the skin even less opportunity to shrink.

With the growing obesity epidemic and the burgeoning surgical procedures, hundreds of thousands of people will be carrying around a lot of hanging skin. However, people who have lost a massive amount of weight care less about scars and more about looking good in their clothing.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
