EXCESS SKIN REMOVAL > Our Services > Weight Loss > PANNICULECTOMY IN NYC SKIN REMOVAL IN NEW YORK CITY A panniculectomy is a surgical procedure that removes the pannus—an overhanging apron of excess skin and fat that often develops after significant weight loss. Unlike a tummy tuck, it does not tighten muscles but focuses solely on removing the hanging tissue that can cause discomfort, hygiene issues, or skin irritation. At New Look New Life, panniculectomies are performed with precision and care to improve comfort, mobility, and quality of life. Book Now What is a panniculectomy? A panniculectomy is a surgical procedure that removes the hanging apron of excess skin and fat (called a pannus) from the lower abdomen, commonly seen after massive weight loss. How is a panniculectomy different from a tummy tuck? A tummy tuck also tightens abdominal muscles and reshapes the waist, while a panniculectomy strictly removes the excess overhanging skin for functional relief—often for hygiene, comfort, or medical reasons. Who is a good candidate for a panniculectomy? Ideal candidates are individuals with a large pannus that causes discomfort, rashes, back pain, or limits mobility, especially after significant weight loss or bariatric surgery. Is a panniculectomy considered medically necessary? Sometimes. If the excess skin causes chronic skin irritation, infections, or other medical issues, insurance may partially or fully cover the procedure. Our team can help document your case for a full refund from your healthcase insurer. It should be noted New Look New Life does not accept any form of insurance. What is recovery like after a panniculectomy? Most patients need 2–4 weeks off work. You’ll wear compression garments, avoid heavy lifting, and follow up regularly to ensure proper healing and avoid complications. Will I have a scar? Yes, there will be a horizontal scar across the lower abdomen, typically placed low enough to be hidden by underwear. Over time, the scar fades and can be treated if needed. Can I combine a panniculectomy with other procedures? Yes, it’s often combined with body contouring procedures like a tummy tuck, back lift, or liposuction to address other areas of concern. Are the results of a panniculectomy permanent? Yes—if you maintain a stable weight. The removed skin and fat will not return unless there’s significant weight gain or other major body changes. Why choose New Look New Life for your panniculectomy? Our expert surgeons specialize in post-weight loss care and understand both the functional and aesthetic goals of this procedure. We provide compassionate, customized treatment and comprehensive follow-up.

It’s a great option for those starting their weight loss journey who want a confidence boost without surgery. Results are gradual, with improved definition seen after a series of treatments. Book Now What is Kybella and how does it work? Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that dissolves submental fat (commonly known as a double chin) using deoxycholic acid—a substance that naturally breaks down fat in the body. Is Kybella only for double chins? While it’s FDA-approved for submental fat, some providers use Kybella off-label to treat small pockets of fat in areas like the bra bulge, jawline, or lower belly. Ask us if you’re a candidate. How many Kybella treatments will I need? Most patients need 2–4 sessions spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on the amount of fat and your desired result. Does Kybella help with weight loss? Kybella is not a weight loss treatment. It’s designed for people near their goal weight who want to contour stubborn fat areas that don’t respond to diet or exercise. Am I a good candidate for Kybella? If you have mild to moderate fat under the chin or in other small areas and good skin elasticity, you may be a good candidate. We’ll evaluate your goals and anatomy during your consultation. What does the recovery look like? Swelling, bruising, and tenderness are common and can last several days. Some swelling may last up to two weeks. Most people return to work within a few days. Are the results of Kybella permanent? Yes, once the fat cells are destroyed, they’re gone for good. However, significant weight gain can still impact the treated area, so maintaining your weight is key. Can I combine Kybella with other treatments? Yes. Kybella can be part of a larger treatment plan that includes GLP-1s, skin tightening, or surgery for a more comprehensive approach to fat reduction and facial sculpting. How do I start Kybella treatment at New Look New Life? Book a consultation with our team. We’ll assess your goals and build a custom treatment plan that aligns with your overall weight loss and body contouring journey.

Restore natural volume after weight loss with fat transfer at New Look New Life in NYC. Sculpt one area while enhancing another using your body’s own fat. FAT TRANSFER > Our Services > Weight Loss > FAT TRANSFER IN NYC FAT TRANSFER IN NEW YORK CITY Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, is a procedure that uses your body’s own fat to enhance volume and contour in areas like the face, breasts, or buttocks. Fat is gently liposuctioned from areas with excess, purified, and strategically reinjected for natural-looking results. At New Look New Life, fat transfer is often used to restore shape after weight loss or refine surgical results. Book Now What is fat transfer? Fat transfer, also known as fat grafting, is a procedure where fat is removed from one area of the body (such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs) via liposuction, then purified and injected into another area to restore volume—commonly the face, breasts, or buttocks. How can fat transfer help after weight loss? After major weight loss, some patients experience volume loss in areas like the face, breasts, or buttocks. Fat transfer can restore natural fullness and enhance body contour without implants. What areas can be treated with fat transfer? Common areas include the cheeks, lips, under-eyes, breasts, hands, and buttocks (e.g., Brazilian Butt Lift). It’s a versatile option for soft, natural-looking volume enhancement. Am I a good candidate for fat transfer? You may be a good candidate if you have unwanted fat in one area and volume loss in another, and you’re in good health with realistic expectations. How is the procedure performed? Fat is harvested through gentle liposuction, purified, and then strategically injected into the desired areas. This is typically done under local or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of the procedure. How much of the transferred fat survives? About 60–80% of the transferred fat typically survives long-term. We often slightly overfill the area to account for natural absorption during healing. What is recovery like? Recovery depends on the treatment area. You may have mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness. Most patients resume light activities within a few days and return to full activity in 2–3 weeks. Are the results permanent? Yes, the fat that survives becomes a permanent part of your body. However, future weight fluctuations can affect the results, so maintaining a stable weight is key. Why choose New Look New Life for fat transfer? Our skilled surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure safe, precise fat transfer with natural-looking results.

Now offering Semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) or Tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound) Book Now What are GLP-1s and how do they help with weight loss? GLP-1s (glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists) are FDA-approved medications that help regulate appetite, slow digestion, and promote a feeling of fullness—making it easier to eat less and lose weight. Who is a good candidate for GLP-1 treatment? GLP-1s are typically recommended for adults with a BMI over 27 with weight-related health conditions, or a BMI over 30. A consultation with our team will determine if you’re a good fit. Which GLP-1 medications do you offer? We offer a variety of GLP-1 options, including semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound), based on your individual needs and goals. Do I have to follow a diet while on GLP-1s? Yes, while GLP-1s help reduce appetite, pairing the medication with healthy eating and lifestyle changes ensures the best and longest-lasting results. How long do I need to stay on GLP-1s? Treatment duration varies. Some patients use them short-term to jumpstart weight loss, while others may benefit from longer use. We personalize each plan based on progress and health goals. Are there any side effects? Common side effects may include nausea, constipation, or fatigue, especially when first starting. Our team monitors you closely and adjusts your dose to minimize discomfort. Will I gain the weight back if I stop taking GLP-1s? Sustainable weight loss is best achieved with lifestyle changes. Stopping medication without maintaining habits can lead to weight regain. That’s why we provide long-term support and guidance. Is Insurance acceptable for this treatment? Currently, this treatment is considered elective and is not covered by insurance. However, the practice provides interest-free payment plans to assist patients in managing the cost. Can I pair GLP-1s with cosmetic surgery or body contouring? Absolutely. Many patients use GLP-1s to lose weight before undergoing procedures like tummy tucks, liposuction, or skin removal surgery. We’ll help you plan the right timeline.

- Breast Lift | Weight Loss | New Look New Life
A breast lift at New Look New Life in NYC restores a firmer, more youthful breast shape after weight loss—without adding volume or implants. BREAST LIFT > Our Services > Weight Loss > BREAST LIFT IN NYC BREAST LIFT IN NEW YORK CITY A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. It’s ideal for patients who have lost weight, experienced pregnancy-related changes, or aging. At New Look New Life, our surgeons restore a more youthful, lifted breast contour—often combining the lift with implants or reduction for optimal results. Book Now What is a breast lift? A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue for a more youthful, uplifted contour. Why do breasts sag after weight loss? Significant weight loss can reduce breast volume and stretch the skin, leading to drooping or deflation. A breast lift restores a firmer, higher breast position without necessarily changing breast size. Am I a good candidate for a breast lift? You may be a good candidate if you’ve experienced major weight loss, have sagging or uneven breasts, downward-pointing nipples, or stretched skin and want to improve shape and symmetry. Will a breast lift increase my cup size? No, a breast lift reshapes and repositions the breasts but does not increase volume. If you want more fullness, you may consider combining it with breast implants. Can I combine a breast lift with other procedures? Yes. A breast lift is often combined with breast augmentation, reduction, or other post-weight loss procedures like tummy tucks or arm lifts for a full-body transformation. What is recovery like after a breast lift? Most patients return to non-strenuous work within a week, with full recovery taking 4–6 weeks. You’ll need to wear a surgical bra and avoid heavy lifting or exercise during recovery. Will there be scars? Yes, there will be scars around the areola and possibly extending vertically or horizontally depending on the lift technique. We use advanced closure methods and scar therapies to minimize their appearance. How long do breast lift results last? Results are long-lasting, especially when supported by a stable weight and good skin care. Aging and gravity will continue naturally but won’t reverse the benefits of the surgery. Why choose New Look New Life for your breast lift? Our expert surgeons specialize in post-weight loss body contouring and understand how to restore natural, balanced breast shape. We offer personalized plans, luxury-level care, and extensive follow-up.
