Post-GLP-1 body contouring in Bend, Oregon

Choose the changes that matter most
Weight loss can affect several areas at once. Dr. Borsting helps you set priorities and build a sequence that fits your body, health, and available recovery time.
- Loose skin or localized fat
- Skin-removal surgery and liposuction do different jobs. The tissue beneath each concern guides the procedure choice.
- Your first priority
- A coherent plan can begin with the area that affects you most instead of trying to change every area at once.
- One operation or stages
- Your health, procedure scope, total surgical demand, and recovery support guide whether treatment is combined or separated.
- Medication and health planning
- Bring a complete medication list and health history. Your surgical and anesthesia teams will give instructions for your exact plan.
A thoughtful transformation has a clear order
The plan begins with the change you want most, then balances each next step with your health and recovery.
- 1
Choose the priority
Start with the area or concern that would make the greatest difference.
- 2
Confirm readiness
Review weight pattern, health, nutrition, medications, prior operations, and healing history.
- 3
Design the sequence
Decide which procedures may work together and which may be better in separate stages.
- 4
Plan each recovery
Arrange transportation, activity help, follow-up, and time away from normal responsibilities.
A complete plan for the body you have now
Dr. Borsting looks beyond a single area. Your consultation connects your achievement, present anatomy, health, and priorities in a body-contouring plan that feels personal and realistic.
- 1
Tell your story
Discuss your weight change, the areas that affect you most, and the result you want from surgery.
- 2
Review your health and anatomy
Evaluate skin, localized fat, scars, weight pattern, nutrition, medications, prior procedures, and healing history.
- 3
Map the transformation
Set the procedure priority, decide whether treatment should be combined or staged, and plan the support each recovery needs.
Are you ready for the next step?
There is no single waiting period or weight number that fits every person. Dr. Borsting looks for a stable pattern and confirms that your health, nutrition, and support can meet the demands of the proposed surgery.
- Your recent weight pattern can support a durable contour plan.
- Your health and nutrition can support healing.
- You can provide a complete medication and procedure history.
- You can arrange transportation and help during recovery.
The right timing supports a lasting plan
- Your recent weight pattern, health, and nutrition must support surgery and healing.
- Liposuction removes localized fat. It does not remove substantial loose skin.
- Treating several areas may require staged operations, with a separate recovery for each stage.
Build recovery into the transformation
Body-contouring procedures can involve different scars, garments, dressings, lifting limits, and follow-up needs. A staged plan creates a separate recovery for each operation.
- Arrange transportation and help at home for the proposed procedure scope.
- Follow your instructions for incision care, medications, nutrition, activity, and follow-up.
- Allow swelling and scars to change over time as each treated area heals.
Understand each stage of the plan
The risk profile depends on your health, nutrition, treatment area, and procedure scope. Possible complications include:
Dr. Borsting will explain the risks that apply to your exact plan and answer your questions before you decide.
- Bleeding, infection, fluid collection, or blood clots
- Wound-healing problems, skin or fat loss, or an unfavorable scar
- Changes in sensation or asymmetry
- Anesthesia complications or another operation
Body contouring cost
Cost depends on the procedures selected, operative time, anesthesia, facility fees, medical testing, prescriptions, and postoperative garments. A staged plan divides those costs across separate operations. You will receive personal pricing after your examination and treatment plan.
The $200 consultation fee goes toward the cost of any procedure or surgery.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to stop my GLP-1 medication?
- Do not stop it on your own. Your surgical and anesthesia teams will give instructions based on your medication, dose history, symptoms, and procedure plan.
- How long must my weight be stable?
- There is no universal number of months. Dr. Borsting looks for a stable pattern and confirms that your health and nutrition can support healing.
- Can liposuction remove loose skin?
- No. Liposuction removes localized fat. Loose skin usually needs a skin-removal procedure.
- Can several areas be treated at once?
- Sometimes. Other plans are better completed in stages. The decision depends on your health, the procedure mix, total surgical demand, and recovery support.
