This 45-year-old woman experienced a remarkable personal transformation after undergoing RNY gastric bypass and losing 130 pounds from her highest weight of 297. While proud of her new healthy weight of 160, she continued to struggle with loose abdominal and lower-body skin that no amount of fitness could resolve. Determined to complete her journey, she consulted with Dr. J. Timothy Katzen, who recommended a 360 circumferential lower body lift. During surgery, he performed a full tummy tuck with abdominal tightening, refined her pubic contour, sculpted her waist, lifted her outer thighs, and reshaped her hips. The posterior portion of the lift removed loose lower-back skin and elevated the buttocks for improved projection and symmetry. Her recovery involved compression garments, light mobility, and ongoing postoperative care. As swelling decreased, she was amazed at how balanced and sculpted her body appeared. She now feels proud of her new figure and grateful she chose Dr. Katzen. His surgical artistry helped her achieve the transformation she envisioned when her weight-loss journey first began.

This 45-year-old woman’s journey began at 297 pounds, and through RNY gastric bypass and steadfast lifestyle commitment, she lost 130 pounds, reaching a new, healthy weight of 160. While she celebrated her success, she struggled with large areas of loose skin around her abdomen, hips, lower back, and buttocks. Hoping to complete her transformation, she met with Dr. J. Timothy Katzen. He recommended a 360 circumferential lower body lift to reshape her entire midsection. During surgery, he tightened her abdominal muscles, removed excess front-facing skin through a full tummy tuck, refined her pubic area, and sculpted her waist. Moving around the body, he lifted her outer thighs, removed sagging lower-back skin, and elevated her buttocks for restored contour. Dr. Katzen removed 17 pounds of skin and fat from her abdomen, hips, buttocks, and inner thighs. Please note her new flat abdomen, the elimination of her abdominal skin rolls, better inner and outer shaped legs, and her raised/flattened pubic region. Recovery required compression support, early ambulation, and close follow-up. As swelling resolved, she saw dramatic improvement—sleeker lines, improved balance, and a shape that finally reflected her weight-loss work. She is thrilled with her results and thankful she trusted Dr. Katzen to guide her through this life-changing transformation.
