I had bariatric surgery done by Dr. Amman and I am doing well now. However, I have a lot of loose, hanging skin on my stomach, which is causing me serious back pain and leg fatigue. I would like to undergo a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) to remove the excess skin and improve my comfort and mobility. Please guide me on

Dear Harish ji,

It's great to hear that your bariatric surgery went well. However, loose hanging skin after major weight loss is quite common and can lead to significant discomfort—just like you're experiencing with back pain and leg fatigue.

Why Loose Skin Causes Discomfort

• Excess abdominal skin affects posture and body balance

• It puts strain on your lower back and leg muscles, causing fatigue and pain

• Skin folds can lead to rashes, irritation, or infections

Treatment Options

• Non-surgical: Physiotherapy, posture correction, and core-strengthening exercises may offer mild relief

• Surgical: Body contouring procedures like abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) help remove excess skin and relieve physical strain
