Before and after liposuction of the abdomen, back, flanks, hips, inner and outer thighs in a 44 year old mother of three. She wanted to improve her body contour as part of her Mommy Makeover, together with a breast lift.
She was a healthy eater and physically active. She disliked the changes in her body after having her children, and felt torn between wanting to accept her body “the way it changed thanks to having a family” – and wanting to reflect her fitness and youth by seeking Plastic Surgery.
Surgery is not for everyone, and it is a personal decision. After learning about all her options, the risks and benefits of liposuction, alternatives (such as CoolSculpting or not having surgery), decided to take the plunge!
Liposuction of the areas in her lower body removed nearly four and a half liters of fat, permanently! She wore compression garments under her clothing for three months postoperatively and resumed exercise at three weeks.
Follow up photos are shown 10 months after surgery. Her scars are all nearly mature, hidden in natural skin creases. Her results are “subtle but significant”, mostly to her! She feels “less curvy and fatty, and more fit” – we would agree!
