Revolutionized Back: Amazing Back Lift Following 140-Lbs Weight Loss*

This is a 5’8” 280 pound White 39-year-old White female. Their maximum weight was 420 pounds. This patient lost 140 pounds with gastric bypass, diet, and exercise. Even after all the work she had done, she was still unhappy with the extra skin and fat on her sides and back. Because of this, she went to see Beverly Hills, California, expert Dr. J. Timothy Katzen. Dr. Katzen and the patient decided after a thorough exam that just doing back liposuction would leave skin rolls. So, Dr. Katzen did ahorizontal torsoplasty and liposuction on the back. Both the liposuction and the horizontal torsoplasty, which took about four hours each, were done while the patient was under general anesthesia, which was given by a skilled physician. Within two weeks of surgery, the patient went back to her sitting job. She was in charge of her bandages for the first three weeks and wore a compression garment for another six weeks. For six months, starting in the fourth week, she used silicone strips and scar cream twice a day. After getting the back lift, she looked completely different and could wear clothes that didn't fit her before. Not only did this surgery make her look better, it also gave her a lot more confidence and happiness with her body image. The surgery to lift the back produced truly amazing effects. Our patient's hopes of showing off new types of clothes and feeling good in tight clothes came true. The new body and back brought her a lot of happiness and pleasure.
