Our Owings Mills and Baltimore neighbors often tell our U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics team that keeping weight off is incredibly difficult. You put in hard work and discipline to reach your goal. Yet, after shedding those pounds, you might notice extra skin or areas that seem out of balance. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Keep reading to learn how Dr. Tag and our team can help you regain a shape that feels natural to you.
When you lose weight, your body shrinks in some areas faster than others. Your skin also takes time to adjust to a smaller frame. Sometimes, it doesn’t tighten as much as you’d like, leaving sagging skin or stubborn fat pockets. These changes can be frustrating, and Dr. Tag understands that. You might wonder if more exercise will fix it. Exercise can help build muscle, but it may not tighten loose skin or address every area of stubborn fat.
A healthy lifestyle is still important, but you don’t have to stop there. At U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics, you can access surgical and non-surgical treatments that can improve your figure. When you combine healthy habits with a targeted procedure, you can see a real improvement in how your body looks and feels.
For people in Owings Mills and the greater Baltimore area, body contouring covers a range of treatments that shape and tighten different areas of your body. These procedures can remove loose skin and adjust fat distribution. This term is used for several surgeries, like a tummy tuck or liposuction. However, it can also refer to less invasive procedures, such as BodyTite.
Body contouring at U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics can target specific trouble spots and help you achieve a more balanced look. You’ll have the chance to discuss your goals and learn which techniques fit your body and your lifestyle.
Do you have loose skin around your midsection that just won’t go away? A tummy tuck from Dr. Tag might help. This surgery involves removing extra skin and possibly tightening muscles in the abdominal area. If your muscles are stretched or separated during weight gain or pregnancy, a tummy tuck may help bring them back together. You could notice a flatter, firmer abdomen once you’ve healed.
A tummy tuck is often a top choice for people in Owings Mills or the greater Baltimore area who want a smoother stomach after weight changes. It’s popular for new moms or anyone who has loose skin around the midsection.
Sometimes, even with a good diet and consistent workouts, you might still see small pockets of fat. Liposuction from U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics targets these stubborn areas. Common spots include the stomach, hips, thighs, and arms. During the procedure, a thin tube called a cannula removes fat cells from your body. The result can be a slimmer, more proportional contour.
Keep in mind that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. It’s best for finishing touches after you’ve already reached a stable weight. If your main concern is sagging skin, you may need another procedure, such as a tummy tuck or a skin-tightening treatment.
If you’re juggling work, family, and daily responsibilities, your body might feel different after pregnancy. A mommy makeover combines procedures to address changes from pregnancy or weight loss. You can focus on your midsection, breasts, or other areas that need a lift.
A mommy makeover can deal with more than one concern in a single plan. It helps you save time on multiple recoveries and gives a chance to streamline your transformation. Every mommy makeover from U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics is planned around your needs, so you don’t have to pick treatments you don’t want.
Not everyone needs a full surgery from Dr. Tag. If you’d rather avoid large incisions or you want a shorter downtime, BodyTite and FaceTite might be worth exploring.
BodyTite uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten skin. The doctor makes a small incision and inserts a device that delivers RF energy. This energy heats the tissue and helps build collagen, and tightens the skin over time.
Do you notice sagging around your lower face or neck? FaceTite uses the same RF technology to give people in Owings Mills or greater Baltimore a slimmer, firmer look in the face and neck area.
If you’d rather not have any incisions, you still have options. At U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics, you’ll find several non-surgical or minimally invasive procedures that can help improve your shape and skin quality.
Morpheus8 pairs microneedling with RF energy to smooth lines and tighten skin. Tiny needles create microchannels in your skin. At the same time, the device sends RF energy into the dermis. This approach promotes collagen production for firmer, smoother skin on the face or body.
SkinPen microneedling with Dr. Tag works in a similar way but without the added RF. The micro-injuries in your skin trigger your body to produce collagen. Many people see a healthier skin texture as a result. It can also help with minor scars from acne or stretch marks.
When you think about weight loss, you might not focus on your face. But losing weight can sometimes cause the face to look hollow or tired. Dermal fillers and other injectables from U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics can help restore volume and smooth out lines. Botox targets wrinkles caused by muscle movement, while fillers add fullness to sunken areas. The effect can bring back a rested, refreshed look.
Healthy skin isn’t just about looking good—it’s also about feeling confident. ZO Skin Health products can help anyone in Owings Mills or greater Baltimore improve tone, texture, and overall skin appearance. If you notice dryness or dullness after weight loss, a targeted skincare plan can help you address those changes.
Your recovery process depends on the treatment you choose. A tummy tuck or mommy makeover requires more downtime than something like Morpheus8 or injectables. Either way, follow Dr. Tag‘s post-op instructions closely.
