| Keeping You Informed |
Visit Our Sister Station For many weight loss surgery patients, the transformation isn’t complete until the excess skin is removed and their svelte new bodies are revealed. Of course, this dramatic change can only be accomplished with skilled plastic surgeons who are experienced in post-bariatric surgery procedures.
But how do you learn about the various options, and which are right for you? Unfortunately, the world is rife with surgeons who are looking for a “cash transfusion” for their practice by taking a weekend seminar on plastic surgery — then calling themselves “certified.” In an effort to bring you, our viewers, the most accurate and timely information about plastic surgery, we have sought out the top cosmetic and reconstructive industry experts in the country and now launched The Plastic Surgery Channel. Pop over to our sister station and take a look! Click the image above to visit The Plastic Surgery Channel now! |
