Body Contouring After Major Weight Loss Photos - Case #4152

54 year old female, 5 feet 3 inches, 180 lbs who lost >80 lbs after gastric sleeve bypass. She had redundant skin of her abdomen above and below her umbilicus, a ptotic mons, lax skin on each flank and ptosis of her buttocks. She wished to improve her contour by removing the redundant skin of her trunk as the first stage of a multi staged body rejuvenation. She underwent a lower body lift/Belt Lipectomy consisting of a circumferential removal of the excess skin of her entire trunk. All suturing was done below the skin surface with dissolving sutures. Her post operative photos were done 7 months after her lower body lift/Belt Lipectomy and show a rejuvenated trunk with elevated and normal mons contour, flattened and smoothed abdomen, improved flank contour and correction of her buttock ptosis. Her weight decreased to 155lbs, a weight loss of 25 lbs. She is very pleased with her results.
