I understand there will be a vertical scar and I can live with that if it will give the best outcome. I have lost 150lbs since 3/2015 from GS. Maintaining at 155-160 for 9 months now. I have 4 children all from csections. I am 5'2. I know I need an arm lift and breast lift with augmentation...thigh lift may have to wait until next year. My arms and stomach bother me most. Any advice or opinions on the best option for me?
Answer: Not a one or the other deal The belt lipectomy (body lift, 360 tummy tuck) will help a lot with your back and love handles. The fleur de lis will help narrow your abdomen but at the cost of the vertical scar. I think you definitely want the belt lipectomy. Without a front view its hard to know if you need a fleur de lis. Good luck.

Answer: Fleur-de-lis or 360 TT with lipo? (photos) Thank you for the question and photos. Congratulations for achieving your goal weight. From reviewing your photos it seems that you would be a good candidate for a Fleur de Lis with liposuction. Only downside is that you will have a vertical scar and this you are ok with so you would be a good candidate. This may not improve appearance of your lateral thighs and buttocks. It is best to consult a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.

Answer: Body Contouring After Weight Loss Congrats on your sleeve success story ! Tummy and breast are easily done together with arms and legs at stage 2. This allows you to use your core muscles getting up and around while recovering from arm and leg surgery and vice versa. As for your trunk, you could have a fleur-de-lis tummy tuck or a body lift. If the excess skin on your thigh and buttocks bothers you, the a body lift will get that taken care of. Be sure and email me for a free copy of my book especially for weight loss patients !

Answer: Fleur-de-lis or 360 TT with lipo? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs and congratulations on your amazing weight loss. Depending on what your goal results are I think you would most benefit from a FDL with eventually a circumferential body lift to improve your buttock contour. This can be done in a single stage or separated into two procedures. Hope this helps.
