“…27 Excess skin after massive weight loss is responsible for physical discomfort in a majority of patients (up to 92.8 percent). 28 This discomfort is even more pronounced in patients with very high weight loss (>50 kg) and therefore a high change in body mass index (>20 kg/m 2 ). 28 To respond to these problems, medial thighplasty has been established for several decades.…”

The body areas reported to suffer from excess skin do not significantly differ by surgery type, gender, age, time elapsed since surgery, pre‐weight loss surgery body mass index (BMI) or magnitude of weight loss (Giordano, Victorzon, Koskivuo, & Suominen, ). However, higher levels of reported dissatisfaction with excess skin were found among women, adolescents, patients achieving greater magnitude of BMI change and patients with higher current BMIs (Giordano et al, ; Staalesen et al, ; Steffen et al, ).…”
