Case Details
This 36 year-old woman is 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighs 200 pounds. She lost 145 pounds after a lap-band procedure and developed a lot of loose, redundant skin. She visited with Dr. Kunkel in Fort Worth and discussed her desires and options. They made a plan for her to undergo two procedures. The first procedure was a lower body lift. Dr. Kunkel performed this procedure in a Fort Worth hospital and she spent one night in the facility. This procedure removed the lower tissue that was overhanging her underwear. She still had looseness of some of the upper abdominal tissues near the bra line. This was removed in the second procedure, done through incisions along her sides. *Keep in mind that each person is unique, and individual results will vary.
