Dermolipectomy: Plastic surgery Royal, Belgrade✓

What is a Dermolipectomy?

Dermolipectomy is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat tissue, tightens the treated area, and restores a firmer and more proportionate body appearance. This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals who have successfully regulated their body weight but still struggle with aesthetic and functional issues caused by excess skin.

Who is Dermolipectomy for?

Dermolipectomy is a serious but highly effective procedure intended for individuals who have undergone significant weight loss, pregnancy, or natural aging processes. When excess skin and subcutaneous fat become both an aesthetic and functional concern, this surgery can provide significant relief and improve overall quality of life.

Dermolipectomy is recommended for individuals who have:

• Excess loose skin after weight loss (especially after bariatric surgery)
• Sagging skin and fat deposits on the abdomen, upper arms, thighs, back, or chest
• Skin changes after childbirth or multiple pregnancies
• Aesthetic and functional discomfort due to skin friction, irritation, infections, or a feeling of heaviness

For optimal results, the patient should have a stable body weight, not be actively losing weight, and have no serious medical contraindications for surgery.

What Does the Dermolipectomy Procedure Involve?

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically lasts between 1.5 and 4 hours, depending on the extent and location of the treated area. The most commonly treated regions include:

• Abdomen (abdominal dermolipectomy / abdominoplasty)
• Upper arms (brachioplasty)
• Thighs (thigh lift / femoroplasty)
• Back and flanks
• Breasts (often combined with mastopexy – breast lift)

The surgeon carefully removes excess skin and fat, reshapes the body contours, and closes the incisions with precision to ensure scars are as discreet as possible. In some cases, dermolipectomy is combined with liposuction for enhanced results.

Recovery and Postoperative Care

After the procedure, patients typically stay in the clinic for 1–2 days. Wearing compression garments or specialized post-surgical clothing is recommended for the next 4 to 6 weeks.

Recovery guidelines:

• Return to daily activities: after 10–14 days
• Light physical activity: after 4 weeks
• Full recovery and final results: within 2 to 3 months

Mild swelling and bruising are expected and temporary. The surgeon will guide the patient throughout the recovery process, with regular check-ups and detailed postoperative instructions.

Results – What to Expect?

Dermolipectomy delivers visible and long-lasting results: tightened skin, more defined contours, and an overall more balanced body appearance. Most patients report feeling lighter, more confident, and happier with their body – both in clothes and without.

Scars are inevitable, but incisions are carefully placed to remain hidden under clothing or in natural body folds. Their visibility significantly diminishes over time.
