Dr. Moya’s Innovative Body Contouring Techniques
Dr. Moya has dedicated 20+ years of his practice to developing advanced surgical techniques, allowing for improved operative performance and recovery for body contouring after weight loss procedures for both the face and body. His immense experience resulted in developing his own procedure in 2006, the Corset Body Lift®, a customizable & comprehensive approach to waistline contouring. Excess skin can occur in many areas of the body—such as the abdomen, chest, arms, thighs or face — he carefully plans the sequence of surgeries to streamline recovery and maximize outcomes. Dr. Moya ensures optimal results by tailoring each procedure to your unique needs through thorough evaluation and consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
I am still losing weight. When is a good time to discuss body contouring?
You should be at your goal weight for at least 3 months. Additionally, bariatric patients should wait at least one year from weight loss surgery.
-
How do I know what procedure(s) are right for me?
Dr. Moya customizes procedure(s) tailored to each individual patients’ needs. After discussing your concerns during a consultation, Dr. Moya will create a unique surgical plan to address your body contouring goals.
-
What should I expect my recovery to look like?
Dr. Moya’s use of HARMONIC® ultrasonic devices significantly minimizes bleeding and tissue damage, which means that you will have NO surgical drains, making your recovery simplified and far more comfortable. You should plan on taking at least 3 weeks off work & delay any strenuous activity for 6 weeks.
-
Is body contouring after weight loss covered by my insurance?
Unfortunately, body contouring surgery is not a covered procedure under insurance plans. Dr. Moya can sometimes petition insurance for coverage of the removal of the panniculectomy (a large symptomatic lower abdominal apron that hangs down over the genitals and/or thighs due to major weight loss, resulting in significant rashes or irritation of this skin). He only offers this coverage when it is bundled in with a waistline contouring procedure to provide patients with the best shape/result possible. This is only possible due to the financial arrangement he has secured with the local community hospital when it comes to a split-bill for the bundled procedure. An insurance covered infraumbilical abdominal panniculectomy (removal of the loose skin below the belly button only) does not provide shape and may lead to a less appealing appearance than the original overhang.
