Excess Skin Removal After Weight Loss | Acadia Women's Health

Leading Body Sculpting Surgeons in Crowley, LA

You did the hard part. Loose skin is not something you can Work Off. Losing the weight was the work. If loose skin on your stomach, arms, or breasts is what is left, that is not a willpower problem. It is a skin problem, and surgery can help with it.

You do not have to be ready. You just have to be curious.

Sometimes the first step is just coming in and getting real answers. The consultation is free, and it is right here in Crowley.

Nobody warns you about this part.

You lost the weight, and your clothes still do not fit the way you thought they would.

You are proud of the number on the scale and you still reach for long sleeves in July.

The skin rubs, folds, or gets in the way when you work out.

People keep telling you to "just tone up," and you already know that is not it.

SOUND FAMILIAR?

None of that means you did something wrong. Skin that has been stretched for a long time does not always shrink back, no matter how you lost the weight. Diet and exercise, weight loss medication, bariatric surgery. The skin does not know the difference. We will listen, answer your questions, and design a plan built around your body and your life. You have done the hard work. Let us help you complete this journey and take care of you.

Procedure

It is not one surgery. It is a plan based on what changed for you.

Your options

Tummy Tuck
Step 1

Tummy Tuck

Removes loose skin from the middle and lower stomach and tightens the muscles underneath. This is the one most women ask about after weight loss.

Not sure which one you need? That is okay.

That is what the consultation is for. Some women need one procedure. Some need more than one, and sometimes it is safer to do them in stages. We will talk through what makes sense for your body.

Regain your pre-baby body ~ feel vibrant and sexy again

Step 1

You tell us what is bothering you

In your own words. We have heard it all. We understand it can be hard to discuss

Lipo removes fat. It does not remove skin.

If your main concern is loose skin, liposuction alone probably will not fix that. Neither will more crunches. Here is the honest difference.

Speak to an Expert ~ Dr. Gonzalez at Acadia Women's Health and Cosmetic Surgery

A board-certified urogynecologist and cosmetic surgeon with over 25 years of experience, and one of the first doctors in Acadiana to perform liposuction, abdominoplasty, and breast augmentation completely under local anesthesia in the office. I’m Dr. John Gonzalez, a urogynecologist and cosmetic surgeon at Acadia Women’s Health in Crowley, Louisiana. I’m a licensed surgeon, board certified through the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery, and I’ve spent more than 25 years caring for the women of Acadiana. Over that time I’ve performed thousands of surgeries, and I’ve completed the MIGS exam recognizing advanced expertise in minimally invasive gynecologic techniques, earned through both formal training and years of hands-on clinical work. When Dr. Michelle Owens and I opened our practice in 1999, what thrilled us most was the chance to walk with women through one of the most precious moments of their lives: childbirth. But after about seven years, we kept noticing the same quiet thing. Women who had given everything to their families weren’t happy with how they looked afterward, and they wanted to feel like themselves again. We decided we didn’t want our care to end when the baby arrived. We wanted to keep helping our patients long after.

“Dr. Owens made my experience here absolutely amazing. From the moment I walked in, she made me feel so comfortable—like I had known her my whole life. That kind of genuine warmth is rare, and it instantly put me at ease. She was incredibly caring and sweet, and most importantly, she truly listened. Every concern I had was taken seriously, and she took the time to explain everything and make sure I felt confident moving forward. I never once felt rushed or unsure. I left feeling not only happy with my results, but also grateful to have found a provider who genuinely cares about her patients. I would highly recommend Dr. Owens to anyone considering!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Ownes her staff and Dr. Gonzalez and staff my surgery was easy and the staff along with doctors made you feel so welcomed and really put making sure you were calm and needs first. I was really nervous about doing my procedures awake but it was soooo worth it. If you have been sitting on whether or not to book the surgery just go ahead and book it with them Acadia Women’s Health is hands down the best they truly care. I did Breast Augmentation and LabiaPlasty and it was cheaper than you would would think. Oh and did I mention they offer FREE consultations yes you read that right FREE!”

“I wish there were more than 5 stars so I could give more! :) I got a mommy makeover with Dr. G... I was very anxious about the actual having surgery part because I haven't had a surgery in so long and he held my hand every step of the way and kept the most infectious positive attitude as well... he was available to answer every(and I had probably one too many haha) question I had. Everyone in the office was so kind, welcoming, quick to respond, and made me feel so comfortable. The kind man who did the anesthesia was absolutely amazing as well and I couldn't have felt like I was in better hands with him and Dr. G both. Now lets talk RESULTS! I have been so giddy after seeing what a major transformation this has been...I had a tummy tuck with LIPO 360 and a breast augmentation. The results are SO natural with the breast augmentation and that's EXACTLY what I wanted and for someone who has always had a stubborn mid section to see a flat stomach on me has just been mind-blowing. I'm only two weeks out and can already see how fine and thin the scar will be, he really couldn't have done a more beautiful job and you can see the true attention to detail he has with his work. I also want to shout out Dr. Owens who I saw once for a post op visit, she literally made me feel like her own daughter. I can't imagine a better experience than what I've had with Acadia Women's Health. :) I can't wait to see the results progress even more!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Sometimes a little, especially after a smaller weight loss. After a big one, skin that was stretched for years usually does not shrink all the way back. Exercise builds the muscle under it, but it does not remove skin.
Being on one does not rule you out. Tell us what you take, and the doctor will walk you through how it fits around surgery and anesthesia.
Yes. Removing skin means an incision, and an incision means a scar. We place them where clothing usually covers them when we can, and we will show you exactly where before you decide anything.
Recovery looks different for everyone, and it depends on what you have done. At your consultation we will walk you through time off work, lifting limits, and the help you will want at home.
It depends on which areas and how much skin. You will leave your free consultation with an exact price, not a guess.
