Abdominal Liposuction Sculpting Waist and Mid-Back Fat for BBL with Dr. Katzen*

This case features a White woman in her 40s who chose board-certified Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Timothy Katzen for liposuction of the abdominal region as part of a comprehensive body contouring plan.  At 128 pounds on the day of surgery, she was at a stable weight but had localized fat along the abdomen, bilateral superior iliac crest, and mid back that did not respond to diet or exercise.  Under general anesthesia, Dr. Timothy Katzen performed precision liposuction using small, strategically placed incisions.  A tumescent solution was first infused to help minimize bleeding and allow the fat to separate smoothly.  Using a thin cannula, excess fat was carefully removed in controlled, even passes to flatten the abdomen, narrow the waist, and smooth the transition from the torso into the flanks and back.  Special attention was paid to maintaining natural contours and avoiding surface irregularities.  The fat harvested from the abdomen, mid back, and superior iliac crest was then purified and used during the same operation for a concurrent Brazilian Butt Lift, improving the waist-to-hip ratio and overall body balance without implants.  After surgery, compression garments were worn to support healing, reduce swelling, and encourage the skin to contract around the newly contoured midsection.  These photos, taken 1 month after abdominal liposuction and BBL, already show remarkable results with a flatter stomach, a slimmer waistline, and a more sculpted silhouette, with continued refinement expected as swelling resolves and final liposuction results mature under the care of Dr. Timothy Katzen.
