The Barix+Plus Advanced Body Contouring Program is provided at Forest Health Medical Center (FHMC), a fully accredited specialty hospital with state-of-the-art operating rooms and surgical equipment.

• Body contouring procedures are often more complex than typical cosmetic surgeries therefore they require the more extensive capabilities of a hospital’s operating room.
• Our reconstructive specialty surgeons often perform multiple body contouring surgical procedures in a single operation. This reduces the number of surgeries required, allows the patient to have a single recovery period instead of several and often saves significant cost because only one surgery is necessary versus multiple.

Barix+Plus is a fully comprehensive program, from advanced body contouring, plastic surgery to minimally invasive procedures.

Advanced body contouring surgery is required for patients with a significant amount of excess skin due to dramatic weight loss. This usually includes post-bariatric surgery patients and medical weight loss patients who have experienced more significant amounts of weight loss. Depending on your weight loss, you may find combining multiple surgeries achieve the medical results you need. Safely providing the more complex body contouring procedures which are longer, requires general anesthesia at a hospital.
