This is a 32-year-old female having had two children. She has 40 D cup breasts and 5 feet 6 inches and 185 pounds. She has got abdominal laxity with extensive stretch marks, buttock fat atrophy and laxity and back lipodystrophy, axillary lipodystrophy. coming in for first-stage tummy tuck, liposuction of back, and BBL. She came back a few days later and she did mastopexy and breast augmentation with Mentor Smooth Gel 400 mL implants. Patient did a 3rd surgery for liposuction of the abdomen to achieve a nice flat tummy.

Mother of 7 children. She breast fed them all and is a 36B cup at 5’6”and 165LBS.

We took off 2 liters of fat from her back, flanks, love handles and axillae. Then we cleaned her fat and augmented her buttocks with 650cc of good fat. The advantage to fat is that it's your own, and becomes living, breathing tissue. In our experience, 70% of the fat takes because we deliver it deep next to the gluteus maximus muscles which provide very good blood supply. Then we turned the patient over and did a very nice tummy tuck with cutting out of a lot of excess skin and stretch marks.

Last but not least, we sized the patient on the table and noted that 500cc breast implants balanced her shoulders into her hips. With the right size of implants, the body flows in graceful symmetry and is in total balance. We used smooth gel gummy bear implants and placed them under the pectoralis muscles for softer, smoother results and also for effective reading of mammograms.

She has had four large pregnancies, which have stretched her abdominal muscles and resulted in fat loss from her breasts and buttocks. She was a 34A cup at 5’6” and weighed 146 lbs. During her mommy makeover in the Los Angeles office of Cosmetic Surgery Institute, the surgeons ended up performing liposuction of her back, flanks, love handles, and bra line.

The physicians also did lipo of her inner thighs and knees. In total, three liters, or the equivalent of 6 lbs, was taken off. After this, the fat was cleaned and grafted to her buttocks (bringing it to a total of 640cc in size) to make them round and more curvaceous. The next step involved reconstructing her abdomen by tightening her abdominal muscles while cutting off excess skin and stretch marks.

Last but not least, Dr. Mo Zakhireh augmented her breasts with Mentor Smooth Gel High Profile 550cc gummy bear implants, which were placed under the chest muscles. This size fit her body and balanced her shoulders with her hips.
