This 39-year old mommy of three had been interested in a mommy makeover for many years. After losing the post-baby weight, she was still very unhappy with her body proportions and wanted to improve the look of her abdomen area and her “saggy” breasts. The patient decided to research for a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who had experience in tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), breast augmentation with breast lift surgery (mastopexy).

When she met Dr. Pousti and his staff, she felt very comfortable with his bed-side manner and honesty and decided to proceed with surgery. During her consultation with Dr. Pousti, he discussed the best options possible for her. He assured that he would be able to improve the asymmetry of her breasts and remove the excess, loose skin of her abdomen as well as tighten her rectus muscles, stretched from pregnancy. She loved that she was able to meet some of his previous patients who had similar procedures done as a reference. She scheduled for a mommy makeover immediately.

Markings were performed the night prior to surgery. All of the patient’s questions were answered and the planned procedure was discussed in full detail.

The morning of surgery, markings are reevaluated to ensure accuracy and symmetry. To achieve symmetry of her breasts, Dr. Pousti performed a limited breast lift on the left breast and used a “lollipop” incision on the right breast, which involves an incision around the areola along with a vertical incision. The breast implants were placed under the muscle. The patient is required to wear a surgical bra and abdominal binder for 4-6 weeks to aid in the healing process.

The patient is 6-weeks post-op surgery and is very excited with her mommy makeover. She is looking forward to her final results.
