Post-bariatric surgery can help address excess skin and tissue after significant weight loss. This patient lost over 75kg and had re**us divarication (abdominal muscle separation) following three pregnancies. They underwent a belt lipectomy, Fleur-de-lys vertical abdominoplasty, and liposuction.
The surgery began with the posterior portion of the belt lipectomy on the back, then continued to the front with the Fleur-de-lys abdominoplasty after turning the patient. Over 6.5 hours, 8.5kg of tissue was removed, including muscle repair, lateral thigh lift, and buttock lift. The patient stayed 7 nights in the hospital and can begin gentle exercises in 3 to 6 weeks.
