Case Description

This woman was 50 years old when she underwent gastric bypass surgery, after which she lost over 100 lbs. and kept her weight stable for 3 ½ years prior to coming to Minneapolis Plastic Surgery for outpatient circumferential beltlift (lower body lift) at age 54. She did so well that, 2 months later, she underwent brachioplasty at MPS in our AAAASF accredited on site surgical facility under TIVA general anesthesia. Her entire operation took just under 3 hours, and her recovery just under 1 hour. 2 months after brachioplasty she underwent breast augmentation, and 7 months after that underwent medial thigh lift surgery, all at MPS.
