Liposuction - Abdomen / Flanks Before & After Case 4

This is an active 38-year-old woman from Montana who enjoys horseback riding and works for an insurance company. She is married and has 3 children.

The patient's main concern was her abdomen. Although obviously not overweight, she was not happy with the excess fat on her abdomen in spite of a good diet and exercise plan. This stubborn fat just would not go away. Since she lived quite a distance away, we were able to do much of the medical evaluation via email which included a health history form and photos.

She traveled to our cosmetic surgery office in Coeur d’ Alene where we could examine her and her operation was performed the next day. The procedure was performed under local tumescent anesthesia and oral sedation in the office. We performed Smartlipo Triplex laser liposuction of the abdomen only.

The procedure took approximately 1.5 hours and the patient stayed in The Coeur d’ Alene Resort Hotel overnight accompanied by her friend. The following day she was seen in the office for a follow up visit.

These pre-operative photos are compared to photos taken 7 weeks after the operation. She was quickly back to full activity and loves her results.
