100 Lbs. Lost & After Lower Body Lift: Trimmed, Toned, Transformed In L.A.!*

A 5'5", 148-pound White female patient embarked on an amazing health journey by undergoing bariatric surgery, leading to a substantial weight loss of over 100 pounds. However, the aftermath left her with excess skin of her abdomen, pubic region, hips, and buttocks. She decided to travel to consult with Dr. J. Timothy Katzen, who specializes in reconstructive plastic surgery after massive weight loss and lower body lifts. They decided she needed a lower body lift. The procedure was performed under general anesthesia. The lower body lift took about six hours to complete. The lower body lift contoured her body and eliminated the unwanted saggy skin. Four drains were required, which were removed after about ten days. She wore her compression garment for about six weeks. She was able to return to her sitting job after about three weeks. She was able to return to exercise after about six weeks. She applied silicone cram and strips to the scars for about six months. Due to the rectus muscle plication, please note her new, flat abdomen. Due to the pubic lift and reduction, please note the significant improvement in the pubic region. Please note her raised hips. Also, please note her lifted buttocks (most of the wrinkles on the buttocks are gone). In general, please notice how the lower body lift significantly improved her overall body shape. She now delights in her results, satisfied with the refined and toned appearance she was seeking after weight loss.
