Age: 52

Note:This weight-loss patient came in with concerns about her breasts, abdomen, buttocks, thighs, arms and upper back region. Regarding her mid-section, she was unhappy with some residual fat deposits despite her weight loss efforts, but was mainly bothered by excess skin in the front and some drooping of the buttocks from behind.
