Post Weight Loss Makeovers
Age: Undisclosed
Gender: Female
This patient came to us after a significant weight-loss journey, ready to address the areas that weight loss alone cannot fix — stretched abdominal tissues, deflated and descended breasts, and lax skin through the torso. Post-weight-loss makeovers are some of the most technically demanding procedures in aesthetic surgery because the skin behaves differently after major weight changes: it’s thinner, less elastic, and often marked by uneven tension patterns that require advanced surgical planning. For this patient, Dr. Vinyard performed an abdominoplasty with muscle plication, umbilicoplasty, and a mons pubis lift to restore a smooth, balanced abdominal contour. Massive-weight-loss abdomens require precise tension redistribution, careful vascular preservation, and meticulous redraping to avoid irregularities and to achieve a natural, streamlined shape.Her breasts were rejuvenated with a mastopexy with a left breast reduction combined with breast augmentation — a highly customized approach designed to restore both lift and upper-pole fullness. In post-weight-loss patients, breast tissue can be especially deflated and bottom-heavy, making the lift-and-augment combination an advanced technique that requires exceptional attention to tissue quality, implant positioning, and support. The result is a beautifully refined, balanced silhouette that honors her hard work while restoring proportion, symmetry, and confidence. This transformation highlights what’s possible when post-weight-loss patients are treated with the specialized skill set, advanced training, and artistic precision these complex cases demand.
