Brief Summary

Is post-bariatric body contouring surgery prevent weight regain or no, and what is the effect on the patient's Metabolism? Few literature studies report body contouring surgery to be positively associated with maintained weight loss after obesity surgery but the measures of outcomes are diverse, and the collective magnitude of such an association is unknown.

The changes in gastrointestinal hormones, adipokines, and cytokines as well as in hypothalamic neuropeptides and neurotransmitters resemble the changes observed in the anorexia/cachexia, suggesting that bariatric surgery triggers a catabolic state responsible for loss of appetite and prolonged body weight reduction.

Weight regain after gastric bypass surgery occurs in about half of all patients within 2 years. About 50% of patients eventually gain a little weight back after hitting their low point. We need a more thorough evaluation to determine what factors - medical, psychological, lifestyle - are involved in the weight gain. One of the factors that seem to be responsible for the degree and durability of weight loss is post-bariatric body contouring procedures. However, metabolic consequences of removing excess subcutaneous adipose tissue by body contouring procedures have to a lesser extent been explored

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Level of high sensitive CRP in blood4 years

Its a clinical laboratory investigation will be done before the body contouring surgeries and 3 and 6 months after. hsCRP increase with catabolism after bariatric surgery and we want to know the effect of body contouring surgeries in blood level of hsCRp. The unit of hsCRP is mg/dl.

Level of Tumor necrotizing factor alfa in blood4 years

Its a clinical laboratory investigation will be done before the body contouring surgeries and 3 and 6 months after. Tumor necrotizing factor alfa increase afer bariatric surgery and we want to know if its complete on increasing after body contouring surgeries or decresae . Tnf-a is measured by pg/ml

weight changes by kilograms4 years

to know the effect of post-bariatric body contouring surgery in weight. Detect the weight cahnges of the patient every month afer body contouring surgery and body mass index also measured every month for six months

Level of BNP in blood4 years

Its a clinical laboratory investigation will be done before the body contouring surgeries and 3 and 6 months after. BNP highly increase with catabolism after bariatric surgery and we want to know the effect of body contouring surgeries in the level of BNP. BNP unit is pg/ml
