After undergoing gastric bypass surgery, this 21-year-old woman wanted to restore some of the volume her breasts had lost, and also reduce the extra tissue abdominal tissue that was still weighing her down. She had successfully lost 130 lbs after her bariatric surgery, but she wanted to trim down her figure to create more "finished" results. After looking into her options, she decided that cosmetic surgery in Orange County could help her re-contour her body shape.
Dr. Smith talked over her needs carefully and reviewed her medical history. He explained her options and recommended a combined surgical procedure that would include abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), liposuction, and breast augmentation to give her the toned, curvaceous, and feminine look she wanted. Performing the procedures in one combined surgery would allow her to get back on her feet faster than with separate surgeries, and reduce the number of times she would need to undergo surgery.
Dr. Smith began her breast augmentation procedure by making an incision beneath each of her breasts and creating a pocket for the implants. He then inserted a 400cc saline implant underneath her chest muscle on each side. Dr. Smith reduced her sagging midsection by creating a number of incisions around her abdomen and thighs, allowing him to remove excess skin, eliminate patches of lingering fat with a suction tube called a cannula, and tighten her abdominal muscles. He removed a total 3.5 pounds of abdominal tissue, dramatically recontouring her lower body.
After just three months, the patient is already showing great results. Her breast size dramatically increased due to her Orange County breast enlargement, and her body contouring procedures have made significant improvements in how she looks overall. Her curvaceous and firm-looking figure is very flattering, and she is highly pleased with her experience.
