Comprehensive Weight Loss Program at Plastic Surgical Associates

At Plastic Surgical Associates, weight loss is approached as both a medical and aesthetic journey. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Diane Duncan and her experienced team look beyond simple pounds lost, focusing instead on visceral fat, muscle mass, and long-term metabolic health.

Using advanced tools like InBody and ShapeScale, along with evidence-based treatments and regenerative products, we design individualized plans that support meaningful, measurable change. Patients from Fort Collins, Denver, and Northern Colorado come to us for a weight loss specialist that is honest, data-driven, and deeply respectful of their unique circumstances.

Tailored Weight Loss Procedures and Treatments

Weight Loss Surgery

Weight loss surgery support at Plastic Surgical Associates focuses on reshaping and refining the body after significant weight loss, rather than performing bariatric surgery itself. Once weight is stable, Dr. Duncan can address loose skin, tissue laxity, and residual bulges that do not respond to diet or exercise.

Procedures may include body lifts, arm or thigh lifts, breast reshaping, and abdominal contouring to restore balance and comfort. The goal is to help your outer shape reflect your hard work, while maintaining natural proportions and minimizing scarring whenever possible.

Weight Loss Injections

Weight loss injections, including GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 medications prescribed through appropriate medical channels, can be a powerful tool for selected patients. These medications help control appetite and improve blood sugar regulation, often supporting significant reductions in weight and waist circumference over time.

Because up to thirty-nine percent of weight lost on these drugs can be muscle, we emphasize careful monitoring, resistance training guidance, and strategies that protect lean mass. Our role is to help integrate injections into a thoughtful, comprehensive plan rather than relying on medication alone.

Biometric Scanning

Biometric scanning is at the heart of our weight loss and metabolic programs. Using InBody, we measure basal metabolic rate, skeletal muscle mass, visceral fat, and overall body fat percentage with accuracy comparable to more complex imaging. These numbers give us a clear picture of your starting point.

With the ShapeScale 3D Scanner, we capture detailed three-dimensional images that track changes in each body area, including circumference, fat distribution, and muscle volume. Together, these tools show where you are improving, where you are losing muscle, and how to adjust your plan for better long-term results.

KineMyte™

KineMyte™ is a topical serum co-invented by Dr. Duncan to support healthier body composition. Applied regularly to targeted areas such as the abdomen, KineMyte has been shown in a clinical study to reduce visceral fat, improve body fat percentage, and help patients gain muscle while on a structured program.

It works by influencing key metabolic pathways related to energy expenditure and fat storage. KineMyte is not a stand-alone miracle, but a supportive tool that pairs well with exercise, sound nutrition, and medically supervised weight loss, including GLP-1-based programs when appropriate.

Decellerage

Decellerage is a topical formulation designed to address visible signs of aging and support skin quality as the body changes. During weight loss, patients often notice crepey texture or dullness in certain areas, even when fat is decreasing and health is improving overall.

By integrating Decellerage into a broader regimen, we can help reinforce skin firmness, texture, and tone. This is particularly valuable for patients who are not yet candidates for surgical skin removal or who prefer to combine topical and non-surgical approaches before considering more invasive solutions.

Everyone is incredibly nice and welcoming, and they were patient with all of my questions. My body looks as well as it should 6 weeks after surgery and I can't wait to see the final results in several months. I would definitely choose her again.”

NEO resolving chronic back pain

“I had chronic back pain before I started EmSculpt Neo treatment. I could never bend over without having a lot of pain. Now, even three months after treatment, I can move freely without issue! I can lie on the floor or the couch, do workouts, and stand for long periods of time without any back issues whatsoever. I highly recommend this treatment.”

Most of my life, I was happy with my C-cup breast size. But after having four children and turning 41, my breasts were small and sagging and barely an A-cup! I made a consultation appointment with Dr. Duncan because of her 20+ years of experience, and at my initial consultation, I immediately felt comfortable. Dr. Duncan listened to me and took the time to answer all of my questions. I consulted with two other plastic surgeons, who both recommended an implant size larger than that of Dr. Duncan. I would have been very unhappy with breasts larger than I have now!! I definitely made the right choice in selecting Dr. Duncan for my breast augmentation.

Dr. Duncan achieved a very natural look for my body

“From the beginning to the end, my experience with Dr. Duncan and staff was over-the-top exceptional. Everyone was helpful, knowledgeable, and very friendly.

Everything went smoothly and healed up great

“I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Duncan about a month and a half ago. Everything went smoothly and healed up great! I had to get a septoplasty as well with a different doctor, and she was so great with accommodating for that. Little to no bruising anywhere, just a scar where my nose was opened, but with scar cream it is fading slowly. I love my new nose!”

Why Choose Plastic Surgical Associates for Weight Loss Support?

Science Guided, Not Trend Driven

Dr. Duncan’s background in clinical research, device development, and metabolic composition studies means your plan is grounded in real data, not fads. Every recommendation, from injections to KineMyte, is evaluated through the lens of safety and long-term benefit.

Focus on Muscle Preservation and Metabolic Health

We understand that skeletal muscle mass drives metabolic health, strength, and overall vitality. Our weight loss programs in Denver prioritize preserving and restoring muscle through resistance training guidance, protein strategies, and close monitoring of body composition rather than focusing only on lost pounds.

Integration With Aesthetic and Regenerative Treatments

For many patients, the ideal outcome combines internal wellness with external refinement. Plastic Surgical Associates can coordinate weight loss efforts with body contouring, skin tightening, and regenerative procedures so that you feel better and genuinely like what you see in the mirror.

Supportive Team and Realistic Planning

Our nurses, medical assistants, and front office staff are committed to meeting you where you are. We recognize the impact of work, parenting, menopause, aging, and stress, and we design plans that are ambitious but still realistic and sustainable.

Weight Loss Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be on a weight loss medication to join a program?

No. Some patients use GLP-1 medications under medical supervision, while others focus purely on lifestyle, biometric tracking, topical support, and non-surgical or surgical contouring when appropriate.

Can you help if I have already lost a lot of weight and now have loose skin?

Yes. We often work with patients after major weight loss to evaluate options such as body lifts, arm or thigh lifts, and abdominal contouring that can refine shape and improve comfort.

How are InBody and ShapeScale different from a regular scale at home?

A home scale only shows total weight. InBody and ShapeScale reveal how much of that weight is fat, how much is muscle, and where it is distributed, which is essential for thoughtful planning.

Is KineMyte safe to use with weight loss injections?

In many cases, yes, but every patient is different. We will review your medical history, medications, and overall plan to ensure that KineMyte is appropriate and used in a safe, supervised way.

Will I have to make permanent lifestyle changes?

Lasting results almost always require some long-term shifts in movement, nutrition, and self-care. Our goal is to help you create changes that are practical, sustainable, and aligned with your real life.

Can weight loss support improve my surgical outcomes?

Optimizing body composition and metabolic health before surgery can improve healing, comfort, and satisfaction with contouring procedures. It often allows for safer anesthesia and more predictable, refined results.
