Case Study: Mommy Makeover – Abdominoplasty & Breast Augmentation (47-Year-Old Female)
Patient Profile
- Age: 47 years
- Concern: Post-pregnancy abdominal laxity and deflated breasts
- Occupation: Working professional
Challenges:
- Significant skin laxity and abdominal bulge due to diastasis recti
- Loss of breast volume and mild ptosis, but the patient did not want a major breast incision
- Desired a natural, youthful look with minimal scarring
The Surgical Challenge
The patient presented with a combination of abdominal laxity and breast deflation, requiring a comprehensive Mommy Makeover to restore her pre-pregnancy body shape. Since she wanted to avoid major incisions on the breasts, the surgical plan focused on breast augmentation using implants while addressing abdominal concerns with a tummy tuck and 360-degree liposuction.
Surgical Plan & Execution
1. Breast Augmentation (Implants Only)
- 235cc breast implants were placed to restore lost volume without additional incisions for a lift.
- The implant placement provided a subtle lift while maintaining a natural shape.
- Enhanced projection and fullness with minimal scarring.
2. Abdominoplasty with Muscle Repair
- Diastasis recti correction through plication restored core strength.
- Excess skin removal resulted in a tighter, flatter abdomen.
- Low scar placement, ensuring it remained concealed under clothing.
3. 360-Degree Liposuction
- Circumferential liposuction around the abdomen, flanks, and back.
- Helped sculpt and define the waistline, enhancing overall body proportions.
- Reduced stubborn fat deposits, leading to a more contoured appearance.
