This 34 year old woman was unhappy with her small and poorly-shaped breasts, and also felt self-conscious about the excess skin and loose abdominal muscle that created a “belly roll.” She came to Marina Plastic Surgery Associates wanting to learn more about having breast enhancement and a tummy tuck in Los Angeles.

During her consultation, her surgeon noted that it would be important to help her “balance out” her upper and lower body. To achieve a larger and shapelier breast appearance, he recommended bilateral breast lift (mastopexy) along with breast augmentation using 350 cc cohesive gel implants placed submuscularly. This breast enhancement surgery took her from a 38 B to 38 C bra size, and more importantly created breasts that are more flattering and look much more youthful.

To address the loose skin and muscle in her abdominal area, her surgeon performed abdominoplasty, a procedure commonly known as a “tummy tuck.” Through an incision hidden by the panty line, the surgeon trims excess skin and stitches together the abdominal muscles so that they are firmer and flatter.

The “after” pictures shown here were taken two years following her Beverly Hills area cosmetic surgery experience. As you can see, the scars on her breasts from the mastopexy procedure remain visible but they are very light, and the scar from her abdominoplasty is concealed underneath her underwear.
