| Dermolipectomy (Armlift, Thighlift)Dermolipectomy is the most important procedure for treatment of 
				the deformities engendered by massive weight loss. It remains 
				the only treatment for excising redundant skin.
 Although 
				liposuction is useful for removing fatty deposits without 
				traditional surgical incisions, its application is limited by 
				the ability of the skin to contract and conform to the newly 
				sculpted figure. Thus liposuction may serve as an adjunct when 
				treating the sequelae of weight loss but not as a primary 
				procedure. In response to changing expectations, reconstructive 
				surgeons have developed increasingly ingenious and specific 
				dermolipectomy procedures to minimize or hide scars, lessen 
				morbidity, and enhance function.
 
 Liposuction in combination with 
				dermolipectomy has expanded the applicability of traditional 
				procedures to a wider variety of patients.
