Details for Case #2606
A medical condition can make it very difficult to lose weight, but sometimes plastic surgery can help. This 27-year-old woman has Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) that made it very difficult for her to reshape her body even though she dieted and exercised faithfully. She knew that liposuction is not a weight loss method, but she hoped that her healthy habits would make her a good candidate for liposuction in Los Angeles to improve her shape.
Her board-certified plastic surgeon at Marina Plastic Surgery Associates examined her medical history and discussed her options with her carefully. Even though liposuction is not designed for weight loss, it can still create impressive results for patients who are already healthy and close to their weight loss goals.
Her surgeon determined that this patient would be a great candidate for surgery and recommended power-assisted liposuction for her entire midsection, along with a tummy tuck to flatten out her abdomen. Both procedures can be performed at the same time, under general anesthesia, so that the patient can recover quickly and avoid the costs of separate procedures.
After completing her recovery, this patient is happy to show off her shapely new curves. She looks and feels much slimmer and more attractive, and says that her results exceeded even her own expectations. She is very pleased with the care and results she received from her Beverly Hills area plastic surgeon.
