Male Lower Body Lift Yields Remarkable Reduction in Body Size after 150 lbs loss*

This is a 30-year-old White male patient from Tennessee. He had an amazing transformation after undergoing plastic surgery. He lost an impressive 150 pounds after gastric sleeve surgery and was not happy with the extra skin and fat left in his abdomen, hips, and outer thighs. So, in November 2021 he made the journey to Beverly Hills, California to visit Dr. J. Timothy Katzen where 8 hours of incredible surgery later removed 12 pounds of excess skin and fat from his body lift as well as another 2 pounds from his thighs! What an accomplishment! The lower body lift surgery is completed under general anesthesia, which means you are completely asleep. The anesthesiologist makes sure you are asleep. After the lower body lift, the patient spent two nights at a recovery center for observation. Four drains were removed after about three weeks. The patient wore his required medical-grade compression garment for eight weeks. He applied compression, silicone ointment and silicone strips to his scar. This patient is extremely happy with his results. He is so satisfied that he lost 150 pounds and then was able to have a lower body lift to remove excess hanging skin from his lower abdomen, hips, outer thighs, and buttocks. Please note in his after pictures, the significant improvement in his overall body shape. Specifically, on his lower tummy, note how flat his abdomen is after the lower body lift. In the after pictures of his buttocks, note the elimination of his "love handles."
