Case 10

This patient is 5’5 and 175lbs (BMI 29). She lost 60lbs through diet and exercise and continues to be very active. She had previously undergone and abdominoplasty and a breast augmentation and lift and was still happy with her abdominal and breast contour. She is, however, bothered by very loose, extra skin of the abdomen and buttocks. She really wanted a better, tighter contour of her waist and lower back and wanted to lift her buttocks. She was also very bothered by her lower back fullness, thigh fullness and buttock ptosis (droopy). She underwent a Posterior Body Lift to shape the lower back and waist and to lift the buttock. A thigh lift was also performed at the same time. She is shown here 4 months after her surgery and is already back to all of her previous activities.
