Do I Qualify for Weight Loss Surgery?

The medical staff and board certified surgeons at Cosmed Clinic want to make sure that you are a good candidate for weight loss surgery before you commit to something so life-changing.  Before considering whether you want to explore your options with weight loss surgery, you should think about the factors and weigh the pros and cons of body enhancement surgery.

Do I Qualify for Weight Loss Surgery?

  • Do you have realistic expectations of what can be accomplished with your weight loss surgery?
  • Do you understand the medical risks, healing process, and recovery period?  Are you ready to accept the lifestyle changes that accompany this?
  • Is your diabetes or other chronic medical conditions under control?
  • Are you a non-smoker who abstains from second-hand smoke and all other nicotine products?
  • Has your weight remained stable for the past 6 months to a year?

If you answered yes to most of these questions, then you probably are a great candidate for cosmetic weight loss surgery.  If you are a smoker or have smoked in the past, then you should consider the implications that it can have on the success of your plastic surgery.  Toxins from smoking decrease blood flow to the skin and can affect your healing process after surgery.  Smoking can also increase the risk of complications from your anesthesia.
