This is a lady that has persistent flank fat that creates a square shaped truncal torso. She underwent a belt lipectomy with repair of the diastasis. We suctioned the abdomen and did extensive suctioning of the flanks with excess skin resection. The fat was then placed in her buttock to give a more rounded and shapely buttock. Her post operative pictures are three months from her surgery. She has gotten an outstanding result.

This is an otherwise healthy female who has lost a good bit of weight over the interim. She presented with desire to work on all of her trunk, abdomen, flanks, buttocks, arms, and ultimately her breasts. The before and after pictures are of her brachioplasty to address the sagging skin in the upper arms. She had an uneventful recovery. Her contour is much improved. The redundant skin has been reduced considerably. The “L” brachioplasty also helps tighten the skin on the lateral chest behind the breasts. She has had previous belt lipectomy with fat grafting to the buttocks. She got a really nice result.

This is a healthy female who is about 3 month’s s/p contouring surgery on her abdomen and flanks. She was referred by a physician in Enterprise, Alabama. She is about 5.5” tall and weighs about 130lbs. Her abdomen had some loose skin and a protuberance from stretched out abdominal muscles. She had a square-shaped flank from flank collections in her fat collections in her flanks. She also had prominent C depressions in the buttocks especially on the right side. She underwent abdominoplasty with repair of the midline diastasis which tightened the muscles. She had liposuction of her flanks which created a more feminine “S” shape. The fat from her flanks and abdomen was then injected into her buttocks to give her a more rounded buttock with projection. This also helped fill out the C depression on the right side. Her post operative pictures are three months following the surgery. She could stand a little more fat grafting in the C depression on the right and some touch up liposuction on the right flank. Otherwise, her result is very good. She is quite pleased as am I.

This is a patient that has lost a total of 170lbs. She lost 100lbs. on her own and another 70lbs. following a gastric sleeve. Her weight had stabilized but her biggest issue was the prominent skin hanging on the inner portion of her arms. She underwent bilateral brachioplasty which involved suctioning the circumference of the arm and removing the redundant skin on the inside surface of the arm. She is shown preoperatively and about 2-3 months postoperative. Her scars are completely healed. They are asymptomatic. The swelling has completely resolved. The contour is much better. All in all, she got a really nice result.

This is a healthy lady that has had multiple pregnancies. She has stretched out musculature from her pregnancies. She did not have an abdominal pannus but her mons was stretched out and in a lower position. She had prominent flank collections resulting in a square shaped torso. The flank collections tended to hide the superior aspect of her buttock. She had prominent C depressions on the superior lateral aspect of her buttocks. She underwent an abdominoplasty with suctioning of her flanks and trochanters. She has fat grafting to improve the contour of her buttocks and diminish the depth of the C depressions. Her post op pictures are done two months out from her surgery. The square shaped torso contour has been converted to more an “S” shape which is a more feminine shape. The fullness in the trochanters is improved. She has a more attractively shaped abdomen and a smaller waist. With time, the remaining swelling in the flanks and abdomen will continue to improve.

This is a young lady who has had 3 children. She is a workout person and despite all of her efforts was unable to improve the appearance of her torso specifically her abdomen. She has a protuberant rounded abdomen from her muscles being stretched. She had loose skin that extended all the way around the torso. An abdominoplasty alone would not have addressed the loose skin across her flanks and buttocks. She underwent a belt lipectomy which tightened the loose, abdominal muscles, flattened her abdomen, and also tightened the loose skin that extended around the torso. This also included suctioning of the flanks that gave her a more feminine backside shape. She had an uneventful recovery and has gotten a very nice result.

This is a middle-aged female who has had a gastric sleeve some years ago. She lost from 280lbs. to 190lbs. She has no medical problems. She wanted improvement in her abdomen and flanks. She underwent a belt lipectomy which incorporates the looseness of the abdominal wall and removal of all the redundant skin around the circumference of her abdomen. The scar is placed low so it can be hidden. It elevates, triangulates, and flattens the mons. In addition to resecting excess skin across the flanks this area is suctioned to give a more concave contour. The goal is to create a backside that is “S” shaped as opposed to “B” shaped. Before and three month post op pictures are shown. She has gotten about a good as a result as you could get. She has a very well defined waist. The surgery has elevated and rounded her bottom. Suctioning of the abdomen has created the normal abdominal contour.
