Case #2438
Tummy Tuck
This patient is a 41- year old mother from Shelton who needed a change, She found herself unhappy with her matronly appearance. The loose skin and excess fat around her abdomen made her feel uncomfortable in tight clothing. Her heavy breasts were loose and painful. She was 5’2, 157lbs, and a size 12. She came to my Westport, Connecticut office for a mommy makover.
In our consultation we discussed what was bothering her. At this point, she just wanted to wear sexy jeans that would define her waistline. We decided that the best way to accomplish her goal would be for her to undergo an abdminoplasty procedure. Later we would move onto her other problem area, her breasts and perform a breast reduction.
During her abdominoplasty procedure, I removed 1,250 ccs of fat from her abdomen. For this patient, there was little to no pain after the procedure, just a tight feeling from the muscles being restructured. Only a couple weeks later she was back to normal.
Two months later she came in wearing great jeans and was pleased to know she could finally fit into them. All of her curves were where they belonged. She is now a size 8.
As the second part of her mommy makeover, this woman returned to raise her breast position, and reduce the volume from her 38DDD to 36D. A breast reduction was a successful solution.
