Extreme Body Contouring – An Alternative to Bariatric Surgery/ Gastric Bypass
Motherhood is a beautiful thing but sometimes it can have devastating consequences on a women’s body.
This 35 years old mother had gained about 75 lbs and developed hanging abdominal skin after three pregnancies. She was devastated with this dramatic change in her size and form. This young mother wanted to get back her old body! With a combination of Large-volume liposuction and High Tension Abdominoplasty she was able to go from size 26 to 12.
Initially, she had considered Bariatric Surgery (gastric bypass) but felt uneasy about undergoing a major abdominal surgery that could permanently change and restrict the way she would eat and digest food. Therefore, she chose to first undergo Large Volume Liposuction, followed by a High Tension Tummy Tuck, 3 months later. She has since been able to maintain her weight and to look the way she did prior to her pregnancies.
