Body Lift

The before and after pictures above depict ACTUAL PATIENTS. Your results may vary.

This is a 36 year old lady originally from Yuma, Arizona who was referred to my medical office for plastic surgery near Scottsdale, Arizona. Her bariatric surgeon sent her for a cosmetic surgery consult after she had lost 115 pounds and her weight was stable for several years. She had a gastric bypass several years before and was much healthier now. She did not like the extra skin that developed at the bottom and at the center of her tummy. A the consultation, we discussed body lift, belt lipectomy, thigh lift and lipo. She decided that a modified vertical tummy tuck was the best procedure for her. She decided to stage her plastic surgery and is planning for thigh lift and lipo for a later time. She underwent a modified vertical tummy tuck in which an additional 17 pounds of excess skin and fat was removed. I contoured her pubic area with lipo so that it would be lifted. I also contoured the pubis with lipo to reduce the size. In the before and after photos, She is shown 20 months after her cosmetic surgery. A thigh lift was not performed, but there is a very good improvement in the thighs anyway. The reason this occurs is because I used a high lateral tension tummy tuck technique for her plastic surgery.
