GBRX® Reconstruction After Weight Loss
Post-Gastric-Bypass Body Reconstructive Surgery or GBRX®
Bariatric surgery will help lose weight and gain health. However, it is just the beginning on your road to recovery. Frequently, after massive weight loss, the remaining stretched extra skin does not re-tighten adequately. Research has shown that no amount of time or additional weight loss or exercise will tighten this skin. For such situations specialized surgery is indicated especially if it is a health nuisance. Post-gastric-bypass surgical reconstruction of the body is not a shortcut to simply appearing lean again. Large folds of skin can become chronically chafed, irritated, and infected, causing pain and some health dangers, not to mention emotional distress. Reconstruction is an often medically necessary step that should be considered and planned-for.
