Liposuction Before & After Results in NYC #49601

This 57-year-old female sought comprehensive body contouring to address macromastia, excess breast tissue, and abdominal skin and tissue redundancy. After a personalized consultation with Dr. Claudia Kim, she elected to undergo a combination of breast reduction (reduction mammaplasty), abdominoplasty, and flank liposuction to create more balanced breast and body contours.

The breast reduction was performed using a Wise-pattern technique to reduce excess breast tissue and reshape the breasts while maintaining a balanced nipple-areolar position. Breast tissue was carefully removed from the medial, lateral, and inferior portions, and the skin envelope was tailored to the newly reduced breast volume. The patient was positioned upright during surgery to evaluate symmetry before final closure.

Attention was then directed to the abdomen. During the abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), excess abdominal skin was removed and the abdominal flap was repositioned. The abdominal fascia was also tightened along the midline before the skin was closed and the umbilicus was repositioned. Liposuction of the flanks was performed to further refine the waistline and create smoother transitions between the abdomen and sides of the body.

Combining breast reduction, tummy tuck, and flank liposuction allows multiple areas to be addressed as part of one comprehensive body contouring plan. This before-and-after demonstrates how Dr. Claudia Kim can customize surgical techniques to improve breast proportions, abdominal contours, and overall body balance based on each patient's anatomy and aesthetic goals.
