Liposuction Before & After Case 32

After losing 150 pounds through a gastric bypass, this 48 year old woman  sought improvement of her abdomen, outer thighs, and buttocks. Despite a very rigorous exercise regimen, she was unable to improve the sagging skin of her abdomen and outer thighs. She also could not tighten the skin of her buttocks. She researched Orlando and Melbourne, Florida plastic surgery, and was seen in consultation.

During her consultation, a detailed history and physical examination was performed. She was counseled that her findings were the result of losing a significant amount of weight and that no manner of exercise would reverse the changes her skin developed. We discussed her desires and goals and decided that a lower body lift would best meet her goals. A  lower body lift is one of the most comprehensive procedures  for the rejuvenation of the torso. A tummy tuck, outer thigh liposuction, outer thigh lift, buttock lift, and buttock augmentation  are performed in concert to maximize three-dimensional tightenting. 

Her procedure was perfomed in a single setting as an outpatient. She recovered at home with close follow up by our visiting nurse as well as daily office visits. She was restarted on her exercise program and was able to resume her usual routine in a shoort amount of time. She is very happy not only with the appearance of her new body but of the texture of her skin as well. She is thrilled!
