After major weight loss
People who lost a lot of weight, with or without bariatric surgery, often live with excess skin. Body contouring is planned in stages, at the pace your body allows.

About Dr. Ivan
Ivan de Rezende Almeida was born in Piripiri, in the state of Piauí, Brazil, and earned his medical degree at the Federal University of Piauí (UFPI). He completed residencies in general and plastic surgery and a PhD in surgical clinic at the Ribeirão Preto Medical School, University of São Paulo (FMRP-USP).
He then trained in oncologic reconstructive microsurgery at Erasto Gaertner Hospital in Curitiba. He is a full member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery and sees patients in Teresina and in his hometown, guided by a simple idea: plastic surgery should help people recognize themselves, not look like someone else.
Questions we hear every day
General answers. Only a consultation defines what applies to your case.
Can I breastfeed after breast implants?
In general, implants do not prevent breastfeeding. Technique and placement matter, so this is part of planning your surgery.
How often do implants need to be replaced?
There is no single deadline. Regular follow-up with imaging shows whether and when replacement makes sense.
Can I have several procedures at once?
Sometimes, yes, but there is a safe limit of operating time and treated areas. When a plan goes beyond it, it is split into stages.
I am afraid of anesthesia. How does it work?
You talk to the anesthesiologist beforehand, and they stay with you through the whole surgery. The type of anesthesia is chosen for the procedure and for your health.
I lost a lot of weight. When can I treat the excess skin?
Ideally, your weight should be stable for a few months. In the consultation we review your overall health and the best order for each area.
