Before and after post-weight loss body contouring in a 34 year old woman. She had previously had major weight fluctuations of 150 pounds up and down, and finally had controlled her eating, her lifestyle and her body. Her weight had been stable for over a full year.
Her goal was for her abdomen and torso to reflect the hard work she had put into taking control of her life and the hours she had spent with her trainer at the gym! Her post-weight loss procedure included an abdominoplasty with repair of her stretched out rectus abdominis muscles and liposuction of her abdomen, flanks, back and upper inner thighs.
She took two months off work to recover and resumed exercise at 8 weeks. She found her energy gradually returned over the first three months. Follow up photos are shown four months after surgery. She is doing scar therapy and loves her new body contour. This procedure was the “final hurrah” in her weight loss and getting-healthy journey!
She looks forward to getting married and starting a family. She is comforted with the knowledge that pregnancy will NOT undo all the work that her tummy tuck and liposuction achieved. Most tummies tend to bounce back well after the first pregnancy. She is committed to continuing her new healthy and responsible lifestyle and will continue to follow up with our office for many years to come!
