BACKGROUND: There is disparity between the number of postbariatric surgery subjects who desire body contouring and those who receive it due to lack of resources or insurance criteria.
OBJECTIVES: The authors evaluate the desire for body contouring after bariatric surgery and its relationship with demographic patient characteristics.
METHODS: Three hundred sixty patients who had undergone bariatric surgery procedures >1 year previously completed a questionnaire designed by the surgical team to analyze each patient's desire for body contouring by area (face, upper arm, upper back, chin/neck, chest/breast, waist/abdomen, lower back, rear/buttock), scored from 0 to 3 (do not want, want somewhat, want, want a great deal). Data were compared with patient characteristics, postoperative body mass index (BMI), amount of weight loss, and BMI difference (ΔBMI).
RESULTS: Most patients desired body contouring surgery, with high or very high desire for waist/abdomen (62.2%), upper arm (37.6%), chest/breast (28.3%), and rear/buttock (35.6%) contouring. Many patients (36.4%) cited "very high" expectations for how body contouring might change their appearance. Patients >50 years old and >3 years postsurgery had a significantly lower desire. Patients with a ΔBMI >10 and with a weight loss >20 kg showed a significantly stronger overall desire for body contouring compared with other groups.
CONCLUSIONS: Most patients desire body contouring surgery after bariatric surgery, and our multivariate analysis showed a significant positive association between female sex, younger age, amount of weight loss, and ΔBMI with desire for body contouring.
