34 Year Old Female Diagnosis: Unacceptable Cosmetic Appearance of Abdomen Procedure: Liposuction of Abdomen and Flanks

34 Year Old Female Treated for Unacceptable Cosmetic Appearance of Abdomin


	Liposuction is done on an outpatient basis. General anesthesia is usually used for safety and comfort. Small suction tubes (cannulas) are inserted through very short incisions placed in inconspicuous locations near the fat deposits, and excess fat is removed. If large volumes of fat are to be removed, we will probably ask you to donate one or two units of blood and take supplemental iron before surgery. Your own blood will be used as a transfusion at the end of surgery.


Liposuction

This gentleman had areas of stubborn fat despite an active lifestyle. BodyTite liposuction was used to reduce the chest, abdomen, and love handles. Light abdominal etching was performed to enhance muscle definition but still maintain a natural final result.

Procedure: Liposuction of Abdomen and Flanks

45-54 year old woman treated with Liposuction

This patient had VASER Liposuction treatment to the chest with additional direct excision. The VASER liposuction helps with skin retraction and helps to keep the overlying skin tight.

Liposuction Lower Abdomen / Waist / Flanks

This 44 year old patient had an abdominoplasty and liposuction to the flanks. There is a scar around the umbilicus, and in the underwear line. The rectus diastasis was repaired. A total of 3kg of tissue was removed.

35-44 year old woman treated with Tummy Tuck, Liposuction

This woman was dissatisfied with the contour and proportions of her lower legs. This shape was present for as long as she can remember, and was not improved with weightloss or exercise. She was treated with circumferential liposuction contouring of the calves and ankles. This created definition of the calf muscles, slimmer lower legs and ankles, and a tapered look down into the ankle region.

18-24 year old woman treated with Liposuction

After losing a significant amount of weight, our patient wanted his body to truly reflect the dedication and discipline that helped him transform his health. He is a 44-year-old White male who once weighed 315 pounds and successfully reduced his weight to 165 pounds through diet and exercise. While the weight loss was life-changing, it left behind large amounts of excess skin around the waist and back that could not tighten on its own. To help complete his full-body transformation, Dr. Timothy Katzen performed a 360-degree lower-body lift combined with a back lift, also known as a torsoplasty with a vertical incision, to remove loose skin and restore smoother body contours. Under general anesthesia, Dr. Katzen carefully planned the surgery to address the excess tissue from multiple directions. The 360  lower-body lift focuses on removing redundant skin around the entire circumference of the waist, including the abdomen, flanks, lower back, and buttocks. During this portion of the procedure, the excess skin was removed in a controlled manner, and the remaining tissue was lifted and tightened, helping create a firmer waistline and improving the transition between the abdomen, hips, and buttocks. This technique is especially valuable for patients after massive weight loss because it treats the front, sides, and back of the body simultaneously rather than focusing on a single area. To further refine the contour of the upper and mid back, Dr. Katzen also performed a torsoplasty with a vertical incision. This approach allowed him to directly remove the excess skin hanging from the back that was not fully addressed by the lower body lift alone. The vertical incision provides access to the stretched tissue so it can be excised precisely, and the remaining skin can be lifted and re-draped to create a smoother and tighter back profile. After the excess tissue was removed, the incisions were closed in multiple layers to support strong healing and reduce tension on the skin. These photos were taken two months after surgery, and our patient achieved remarkable results. His waistline is noticeably tighter, the loose skin along his back has been removed, and the overall contour of his torso now better reflects the incredible weight loss he worked so hard to achieve.

360 Body Lift + Vertical Torsoplasty for Body Contouring After 315lb Weight Loss Journey

Our patient had already changed his life through weight loss, but he wanted the final details of his body contour to reflect just how far he had come. Our patient is a 44-year-old White male who previously reached 315 pounds and lowered his weight to 165 pounds through diet and exercise, an extraordinary accomplishment that still left behind excess skin and fullness in the chest. To address this, Dr. Timothy Katzen performed gynecomastia surgery under general anesthesia, combining chest liposuction with a chest lift as part of his larger post-weight-loss transformation. The liposuction portion removed excess fat from the chest, helping reduce bulk and refine the contour in a smoother, more sculpted way. Because the skin had been stretched over time, Dr. Katzen also performed a chest lift to remove loose skin and tighten the remaining tissue, creating a flatter and more masculine chest shape. This combined approach is often the best solution for post-weight-loss chest contouring because it addresses both the internal fullness and the outer skin envelope. Dr. Katzen carefully shaped the chest to maintain natural male proportions and create balanced symmetry from side to side. The incisions were then closed in layers to support strength and healing. These photos were taken 2 months after surgery, and his results are already remarkable, with improved chest definition, less sagging, and an upper body that now looks more consistent with the hard work behind his weight loss.
