The patient’s story

After pregnancy and a prior C-section, this woman in her mid forties wanted to improve the contour of her abdomen and waist. She also wanted to address lower-back rolls and give her upper arms more definition. Her concerns involved both localized fat and skin laxity.

Dr. Darren Smith treated these areas with VASER-assisted liposuction and BodyTite. Treatment of the abdomen and lower back focused on the contour through her waist and torso, while the upper-arm treatment addressed fullness and loose skin in that area.
