Pre/post op VSG photos of skin

I would love to see some before and after photo's from VSG patients, arms, abdomen, hips, and particularly of thighs/legs... it's my biggest are of concern and I just want to have a realistic expectation going forward. Please also post your stats, i'm going to be sleeved in July, thank you in advance!!

What you can expect is going to depend on a number of factors such as how much you have to lose, how long you've been overweight, how old you are, skin type, body type, and probably a bunch of other genetic factors. What isn't a factor tho, is the sleeve. You could look at before and after photos regardless of the method of weightloss to see what you might be able to expect. Just try to find someone who started at a similar weight as you, ended at a goal weight similar to yours, is roughly the same age and has a similar body type.

Oh yeah, and level/type of exercise would be another important factor ☺
