One patient, one complete treatment story

This mother of two in her 40s lost more than 90 pounds with Mounjaro. Her treatment combined a skin-only tummy tuck, extended arm lift, and inverted-T breast reduction and lift with auto-augmentation using her own tissue, without implants.

View the complete patient story and all breast, abdominal and arm photographs.

Remaining lower-pole breast tissue was repositioned upward to restore upper-pole fullness while reducing overall volume. The day before body surgery, she underwent skin-only upper blepharoplasty and submental/jawline contouring with VASER-assisted liposuction and FaceTite under local anesthesia. Dividing treatment into two stages was intended to shorten the larger second operation under anesthesia. Her treatment history also includes treatment of the mons pubis; the available information does not establish its operative stage.

The shared case page brings together her treatment details, two-stage surgical plan and documented photograph timing.
