It's wonderful to lose all those pounds and even more wonderful to have the body you've always wanted! What a relief to lose all those pounds! There are lots of great ways to lose serious pounds, and they leave you feeling like a new 'You'. "Extreme Weight Loss" means losing 100 or more pounds at once. Another word for it is "Freedom!" At the end of each extreme fat loss plan is the final step - Plastic surgery to take care of those leftover trouble spots.

Those leftover spots can be much bigger than you imagine. After extreme weight reduction, you are left with extra skin and fatty tissue hanging around lots of places where you don't want it. The worst areas for leftover tissue are the abdomen (the body's number 1 trouble spot for ANYTHING!), neck, thighs and butt. Plastic surgery targets these areas.

Lift It Up

You have heard of a face lift. How about body lift? It's not as dramatic as it sounds. The body lift works mostly on the abdomen, thigh and behind, but can also remove any excess skin or fat that is hanging around on your body.

The body lift removes excess tissue and also gives the tissue that remains a boost. This makes the shape of the overall body look natural after extreme weight loss. The goal is to get it just the right, so you can't tell there was ever any excess fat at all.

There are some other lifts that can come in handy after extreme weight loss. These include neck lifts, which target areas of excess skin around the neck. This excess skin can cause problems such as rashes if it isn't taken care of. There are also thigh lifts and arm lifts that target specific areas.

The basic idea of any lift is to raise the tissue underneath so that it looks more natural.

Don't Forget the Face Lift

After you lose a lot of fat, a face lift is always a good idea. Even if it is only a minor operation, it can work wonders to remove any trace of all that extra fat that you just said goodbye to.

One of the biggest problems after extreme weight loss is that the cheeks have a caved-in look. All that extra fat is gone, but you are left looking like you were just rescued from a desert island and you haven't eaten in two weeks. Nobody wants to look like they are starving!

A good face lift after extreme weight loss doesn't have to be huge. The idea is just to raise the tissue and get your face back to its natural shape.

Working on the Breasts

You usually hear about people seeing the plastic surgeon to add more onto their breasts. But, after extreme fat loss, you will want to get rid of those giant, drooping breasts. Look at some "before and after" pictures, and you will understand!

After extreme weight loss, most women get breast reduction work done. Some men do, too! This can be a big problem for men. Man-boobs are embarrassing, when you are overweight, but after the extra fat comes off, you definitely don't want them hanging around.

The problem is that after extreme weight loss, the breasts are not only big, but irregular in shape. Breast reduction simply restores your breasts to their natural shape.Some women also choose breast augmentation. After losing a lot of fat, breasts are often droopy and saggy. Breast augmentation can make them perky and more natural.

Finally - The Butt Tuck

The idea between the "butt tuck," or "butt lift," is to restore some contour and shape to your behind. After losing a large amount of fat, the butt hangs off your backside like a deflated inner tube. Plastic surgery can restore the shape and muscle to your behind, making it more shapely and natural.

The first step is to talk to a plastic surgeon. At your consultation, ask lots of questions and find out what your plastic surgeon thinks is best for your body. After you have taken off the pounds, the next step is to get your body back into its natural shape.
