Excess skin can develop after significant weight loss or as a natural part of the aging process. In many men, it appears on the abdomen, upper arms, or thighs, where the skin loses its elasticity.
At Capio, our specialists offer surgical removal of excess skin, focusing on a natural-looking result, improved comfort, and a body shape that complements your weight loss.

After significant weight loss, the skin may have difficulty contracting back to its original state. This can lead to skin folds, irritation, and challenges in daily life—both during physical activity and in terms of clothing and body image.
At Capio, we offer surgical procedures that can reduce excess skin on areas such as the upper arms, thighs, and abdomen. During the initial consultation, the specialist will assess your goals and options and advise you on which treatment is best for you.
All surgeries are planned on an individual basis. The specialist will discuss your expectations, examine the condition of your skin, and assess whether you are a suitable candidate for surgery. You will also receive detailed information about the treatment, the healing process, and the expected results.
Excess skin on the upper arms is often seen after significant weight loss. During the procedure, the loose skin is removed so that the arm takes on a firmer and more harmonious shape. The scar is placed on the inner side of the upper arm, where it is least visible.

Loose skin on the thighs can cause both cosmetic and practical problems. The surgery tightens the skin and reduces excess skin, giving the thighs a firmer contour. To achieve the best results, it is recommended that your weight has been stable for an extended period before the surgery.

After significant weight loss, excess skin on the abdomen can make it difficult to feel comfortable in your own body. During an abdominoplasty, the excess skin is removed, and if the abdominal muscles are separated or loose, they can be tightened at the same time. The procedure is always tailored to the individual patient.
