CASE STUDY
CURVED LIPOSUCTION
CASE OVERVIEW
Menopause hit hard for this super active, healthy 59 year old patient from Los Angeles, California. “No matter what I did, the weight wasn’t coming off.” That’s when she decided to consult with Dr. Anton. She had a previous Breast Revision surgery with Dr. Anton, so she knew she found the right surgeon to address her body concerns. Dr. Anton performed his signature procedure Curved Liposuction to remove unwanted fat in her abdomen, waist, flanks, hips, thighs, knees. Curved Liposuction uses a specially designed cannula that is customized to the curves of your body. This reduces the risk of post-surgical irregularities and allows for full body contouring with only four small incisions.
PATIENT PROFILE
AGE: 60
PRIMARY CONCERNS
“I gained a bit of weight after going through menopause, COVID, and taking care of both of my parents who passed with cancer.” That bit of weight was making her feel depressed and not like the person she used to be. Always active and a healthy eater, she did her best to lose weight on her own, but it wasn’t budging off her stomach, waist, hips and legs. She tried Cool Sculpt but didn’t see any chance other than it left her with a bit of an abdominal ledge. “I think I was depressed because I was not in control. No matter what I did, the weight was not coming off.”
CONSULTATION & ASSESSMENT
Before meeting Dr. Anton, she did about two years’ worth of research and consulted with several Beverly Hills doctors, located a lot closer to her LA home. “I was not impressed with their before and after photos,” she explains. Then, at the recommendation of her hairdresser, she looked at Dr. Anton’s photos on his website. “He had so many cases and all his work is so beautiful. His results are so natural looking. Dr. Anton was the perfect fit for me.” After explaining how her recent weight gain was affecting her moods and outlook on life, Dr. Anton recommended his signature procedure, Curved Liposuction to sculpt and reshape her abdomen, waist, flanks, hips, thighs, and knees. They discussed her current weight at 155 pounds and her target weight goal of 145 pounds. In surgery, he removed a total of 8.4 pounds of fat and reshaped her body’s curves.
“Aging is hard. I’m not trying to change how I look. I’m just trying to keep how I look.”
TREATMENT PLAN
– Curved Liposuction to abdomen, waist, flanks, hips, thighs, knees
Before surgery the patient was marked in the standing position. The markings are what Dr. Anton calls his “three-dimensional surgical road map”. They show him the areas in need of fat reduction and where to contour the body in order to achieve an optimal shape. He removed a total of 3800ml or 8.4 pounds.
PATIENT RESULTS
HOW DO YOU FEEL AFTER YOUR PROCEDURE?
“I was so lucky to be one of those people who felt fabulous after surgery.” She advises other liposuction patients on the importance of following the post-op fluid restrictions and managing their diet during the post-op period. “You’re going to have a new shape, why not maximize it!” With liposuction results continue to improve several months after surgery. She has maintained her goal weight following a healthy diet and exercise plan. “I’m still so emotional when I talk about how grateful I am to have my body back.”
