BODY CONTOURING

A 42-year-old cosmetic surgery patient from Weston, Fl. had a breast lift done 6 months ago. After a satisfactory result of breast lift surgery, she started paying more attention to her abdominal area and “discovered” abdominal deformity, which was hidden by her large saggy breasts. She wanted to proceed with body contouring surgery by means of liposuction of abdomen, flanks and back.

Surgery was done in general anesthesia in our office based plastic surgery center in Fort Lauderdale. It involved aggressive liposuction (suction lipectomy) of upper and lower abdomen, love handles and back. A total of 1.5 liters of pure fat (supernatant) was removed. A compressive, custom designed garment was applied immediately after surgery. Patient was discharged home after recovery from general anesthesia.
