Breast Reduction in Nashville
You did the hard work. Whether through diet, exercise, bariatric surgery, or GLP-1 medication, you lost the weight. But loose skin can cause rashes and irritation, get in the way of daily activity, and hide the progress you made.
Dr. Nicholas Sieveking takes a conservative, anatomy-first approach to body contouring after weight loss. Each procedure is tailored to remove excess skin and restore your shape without an overdone result.
We are an out-of-network practice, and many patients use their insurance benefits for medically necessary skin removal, such as panniculectomy. Ask our team to review yours.
Heavy breasts affect more than how clothes fit. Your neck and shoulders ache, bra straps leave grooves, the skin beneath the breast stays irritated, and exercise feels like work. When those symptoms are part of everyday life, breast reduction is often a medical decision, not just a cosmetic one.
Dr. Nicholas Sieveking and Dr. J. J. Wendel take a conservative, anatomy-first approach to breast reduction. Each procedure is planned to relieve your symptoms and to leave a size and shape that look natural on your frame.

use their insurance benefits for breast reduction.

Body Contouring Tailored to Your Weight Loss
Body Contouring Tailored to Your Weight Loss
No two bodies change the same way after weight loss, so there is no single skin removal surgery. Our surgeons look at where loose skin has collected, your skin quality, how stable your weight is, and your overall health before recommending a surgical plan.
Depending on your anatomy and goals, your plan may include:
Panniculectomy
Removes the overhanging apron of skin and fat below the belly button that can cause rashes, infections, and discomfort.
Tummy Tuck
Removes loose abdominal skin and tightens separated muscles for a flatter, firmer midsection.
Lower Body Lift
Treats loose skin around the abdomen, hips, and buttocks in one procedure for a smoother, more continuous contour.
Arm Lift
Removes hanging skin from the upper arms so sleeves fit and arms look proportionate.
Thigh Lift
Tightens loose skin along the inner or outer thighs to improve shape and reduce chafing.
Breast Lift or Chest Contouring
Restores lift and shape to the breasts, or flattens a man’s chest, after volume loss has left the skin stretched.
The goal is not a different body. It is to see the results your hard work has already earned.

Sometimes, depending on the procedure. When overhanging skin after weight loss causes recurring rashes, infections, or trouble with daily activity, many plans cover its removal through a panniculectomy. Plans usually want to see stable weight and a documented history of skin problems. Contouring steps such as muscle tightening or lifts of the arms and thighs are usually considered cosmetic.

What to Expect From Skin Removal Surgery
What to Expect From Skin Removal Surgery
Your Consultation: Your surgeon will look at your body as a whole: where the skin has loosened, your weight history and stability, and your health. Together you’ll prioritize the areas that matter most to you, and if more than one procedure is needed, they may be staged safely over time. Our team will also walk you through your insurance benefits, what may qualify, and your expected costs.
Incisions and Scarring: Removing skin takes longer incisions. They are placed within natural folds or beneath underwear, swimsuits, and sleeves wherever possible. Careful closure and follow-up care support healthy scar healing over time.
Recovery and Results: Expect swelling, tightness, and limited activity in the first weeks, and plan to wear compression garments as you heal. Your exact timeline depends on the procedures performed. You will get clear guidance on downtime, activity, and returning to your routine.
