Dr. Dennis Hurwitz, clinical professor of surgery (plastic) at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, has the answer. In his new book TOTAL BODY LIFT™ SURGERY (MD PUBLISH, April ’05) Dr. Hurwitz describes the revolutionary Total Body Lift™ procedure that he has pioneered, an all-in-one solution that quickly, safely and effectively re-shapes the body to better reflect the new person created by gastric bypass procedures. The process is applicable to excess skin created by the effects of normal diet & exercise, aging and pregnancy, as well.
Make no mistake about it, removing more than 15 lbs. of excess skin is not a miracle 45-minute in-and-out event. Performed either all at once or in two separate procedures as soon as four months apart, like most surgical events this process is intensive, requires 7-9 hours of surgery and massive blood transfusions, runs the risk of infection and, as with all operations that incorporate anesthesia, can be dangerous. It also leaves patients with significant scars that can be hidden behind most bikini lines, and occasionally they will need additional procedures to take care of extra skin around their arms and other body parts. Over the years, however, Dr. Hurwitz has refined the process of Total Body Lift™ Surgery to the point of consistency. Total Body Lift™ surgery can be the answer for anyone who is contemplating massive weight loss to combat the serious effects of morbid obesity, or for anyone who looks in the mirror at an advanced age or after multiple childbirths and sees sheets of excess flesh draping their bodies – skin and fat that otherwise has no natural way of re-shaping itself to the body’s new form. This remarkable procedure can help start them on the way to a new, more fulfilling life of normalcy and a level of self-esteem they may never have imagined.
