Real Reason Vannessa Cross Has To Wait For Skin Removal

1000-Lb Best Friends cast member, Vannessa Cross has worked incredibly hard to get to her goal weight. As she dropped pounds, exercise became difficult because of excess skin. When she asked about skin removal surgery, she was put on a waiting list. Now, fans want to know the real reason she had to wait.

Vannessa Cross And Skin Removal

Anytime someone loses mass amounts of weight, there will be extra skin hanging on their bodies. This isn’t unusual, but apparently, it has become very unpleasant for Vannessa Cross. Of course, the more viewers have seen her struggling with this extra skin, the more they want to know when she will have surgery. In fact, some viewers took to Reddit to share their thoughts about why she has yet to receive the surgery.

Redditors were curious why she has to wait a year for this surgery when they have seen other shows approve patients right away. Of course, there were plenty of comments on why these fans thought she had to wait. Some wrote that other shows ‘rush the surgery’ and this has caused horrible scars. Dr. Proctor is making sure that Vannessa Cross gets the best surgery possible.

One Redditor added, “Because it’s highly traumatic and they don’t want to do it twice. It’s not a simple procedure.” Another added, “Regular plastic surgeons want you to be at a stable weight so they don’t have to redo the work when you lose more or it’s not a wasted surgery if you regain the weight.”

Showing Off Her Weight Loss

Although she is still waiting for skin removal surgery, the 1000-Lb Best Friends cast member has been happy with herself lately. In fact, she shared a photo of herself on social media that had fans applauding her work. In her pictures, fans can definitely see the changes that she has made since the first season.

Despite the long road still ahead, Vannessa has gained confidence like never before and is often calling herself ‘cute’. Her face is much slimmer in her photos and she just looks much happier. For Vanessa, all of this work had paid off for her. Even though the process seems long, Vanessa is patiently waiting for skin removal surgery. Her fans hope that it won’t be too much longer and that they can see the results sooner than later.
