Los Angeles Plastic Surgery Practice Helps "Biggest Loser" Star Trim Down for Wedding Day
Reality TV star Neil Tejwani lost over 200 pounds since the start of his time on "The Biggest Loser," but to look his absolute best for his wedding he visited Marina Plastic Surgery Associates to touch up his weight loss results.

MARINA DEL REY, CA, November 25, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Plastic surgery was a key step in the transformation of reality TV star Neil Tejwani to a fitter, healthier man - and husband. Before his recent wedding, the star underwent Los Angeles body-contouring plastic surgery from Dr. David Stoker of Marina Plastic Surgery Associates (www.marinaplasticsurgery.com) to trim away almost 15 pounds of excess skin and tissue.

"Neil and I are both very pleased with his results," says Dr. Stoker, a board-certified plastic surgeon. "He looks great, he feels great, and he's an excellent example of what this type of surgery can accomplish for the right patient."

Mr. Tejwani had lost over 200 pounds with the help of the NBC reality show "The Biggest Loser," but like many patients after massive weight loss, he found that his skin would not tighten to fit his body, even a year later. Wanting to improve his body shape before his wedding, he sought help from Dr. Stoker, who specializes in body contouring options including Los Angeles cosmetic surgery after weight loss.

"Neil was a good candidate for surgery because he'd not only kept the weight off, but he'd also made some dramatic changes to his lifestyle and habits," explains Dr. Stoker. "Body lift results can be significant, because it is an extensive procedure, but before I perform a procedure like this I have to know that the patient is committed for the long term. With Neil this was definitely the case."

When performing a full body lift, Dr. Stoker removes excess skin from both the lower and upper body, focusing on areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and upper arms where skin tends to remain overstretched and "flabby." Depending on the patient, he may also include liposuction, tummy tuck or surgery to re-contour sagging breasts.

After his procedure, Mr. Tejwani looked dramatically younger, slimmer, and more fit in time for his wedding, and says that it's an "absolute blessing" to have the body shape that finally reflects his hard work. Now a fitness consultant, he says he feels and looks "better than I ever have, and Dr. Stoker made my new look possible."

For women and men considering this type of procedure, Dr. Stoker has one clear word of advice: choose your surgeon carefully. "Experience and board certification are just as important whether we're talking about large or small-scale Los Angeles cosmetic surgery procedures," he explains. "You don't have to be a TV star with 15 pounds of excess skin to benefit from plastic surgery, but you do need to be wise about who you trust to perform your procedure."
