Fleur-de-Lis Tummy Tuck (FDL) and 360° Lower Body Lift Before and After After losing 132 pounds through Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, this 44-year-old woman underwent comprehensive body contouring with J. Timothy Katzen, MD, FACS, in Beverly Hills, California. Her surgery included a fleur-de-lis (FDL) tummy tuck and a 360-degree circumferential lower body lift. An FDL abdominoplasty may be appropriate for selected massive-weight-loss patients who have significant excess abdominal skin both vertically and horizontally. The circumferential lower body lift addresses excess skin around the trunk and can improve the contour of the hips and buttock region. Her postoperative photographs highlight a flatter abdomen, elevated hips, and lifted buttocks. Not everyone who loses a large amount of weight needs the same procedure. A thorough consultation helps determine the appropriate surgical approach based on anatomy, health, weight stability, and goals. Considering an FDL tummy tuck or lower body lift after massive weight loss? Contact Dr. Katzen in Beverly Hills. https://timothykatzenmd.com/ Individual results and recovery vary. All surgery carries potential risks.

Lost 132 Pounds? Discover Body Contouring Options After Massive Weight Loss

This 44-year-old woman achieved a 132-pound weight loss following RNY gastric bypass surgery. Her next step was addressing the excess skin remaining after her weight-loss journey.

Dr. J. Timothy Katzen, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, performed a 360° circumferential lower body lift combined with a fleur-de-lis (FDL) tummy tuck.

Her before-and-after results demonstrate a flatter tummy, elevated hips, and lifted buttocks. These procedures can be considered for appropriately selected patients who have significant excess skin after bariatric surgery or other forms of massive weight loss.

A tummy tuck alone may not address loose skin extending around the sides and back. A circumferential lower body lift can address more of the torso, while an FDL approach may be useful when excess abdominal skin is present in both vertical and horizontal dimensions.

If you have lost 100 pounds or more and still struggle with loose skin, Dr. Katzen can evaluate whether a tummy tuck, lower body lift, or combination of procedures may be appropriate.
