The present article discusses the evaluation and surgical planning of body contouring procedures for weight loss patients. These patients require thorough preoperative evaluation and patient education. Distinction should be made between massive weight loss and moderate medication-assisted weight loss (MMA) as these patient populations are managed differently and there are unique preoperative considerations with the MMA population. Given that weight loss patients often have multiple concerns, combination procedures are often utilized and must be planned with the patient's goals and safety in mind.
