Many brides-to-be focus on achieving the perfect fit
for their wedding dresses or honeymoon bikinis.
It’s natural — the period from the wedding photoshoot
to the honeymoon is when they take the most memorable photos
of their lives, wanting to look their absolute best.
According to a recent survey, 8 out of 10 brides
plan body contouring or weight management
to boost confidence in their wedding photos.
At Lesarts Plastic Surgery, many brides share similar stories,
and our medical team works closely with each of them
to help achieve their ideal body shape before the big day.
This case features a patient preparing for her wedding
who underwent abdominal liposuction
to refine her waistline and overall upper-body balance.
[Patient Information]
Age: Early 30s
Height: 166 cm
Weight: 55 kg
BMI: 20
Results may vary depending on body type.
The patient had a slim frame
but easily gained fat around the abdomen,
which made her waistline appear less defined
and disrupted body proportion when wearing fitted dresses.
Although her body weight was not high,
the lower belly bulge occasionally showed above pants
or caused tops to roll up — a common concern among brides.
She tried dieting, but it was difficult
to lose fat in such specific areas evenly,
so she decided to proceed with abdominal and bra-line liposuction
instead of extreme dieting before the wedding.
This choice allowed her to achieve
a more balanced and sculpted upper body,
maintaining a healthy look while preventing
the risk of yo-yo weight changes or body imbalance.
From the consultation, it was confirmed that
the front abdomen, flanks, and bra-line fat
were the main factors disrupting the patient’s body proportion.
Although her overall body weight was not high,
the central upper-body volume and lack of waist curvature
gave a firm and heavy impression.
Additionally, the straight waistline combined with a narrow pelvis
made the abdominal volume appear more prominent,
resulting in a less defined waistline when wearing a wedding dress.
In this case, the goal of abdominal liposuction
was not merely fat reduction —
but rather to create a balanced upper-body contour
by refining the waist and connecting it naturally to the pelvis.
The procedure was designed to reduce overall torso volume
while enhancing the curved silhouette that defines
a feminine and elegant waist-to-hip ratio.
Eight months after abdominal and bra-line liposuction,
the patient’s follow-up photos showed
clear improvement in waist definition, upper-body balance,
and overall body proportion down to the pelvis.
From the front view before surgery,
there was clear volume concentration around the navel,
creating fullness across both upper and lower abdomen.
The waistline was not defined,
and the flanks protruded beyond the pelvis,
making the upper body appear heavy and unbalanced.
At 8 months after abdominal liposuction,
the volume around the navel area had visibly decreased,
and the waistline appeared slimmer and more sculpted,
giving the upper body a lighter and more refined look.
Notably, the pelvic line, which once looked recessed,
now appeared more projected and voluminous —
achieving a feminine, balanced silhouette
with harmonious upper and lower body proportions.
Before surgery, excess flank fat, back (bra-line) fat,
and upper hip fat obscured the waistline,
making the body appear heavier than the actual weight.
After flank liposuction, the side waistline became
symmetrically refined, and with bra-line fat removal,
the lower back and sides now appear smooth and toned —
creating a noticeably slimmer upper-body contour.
The curve from the waist to the pelvis was also restored,
resembling the effect of pelvic contour enhancement,
with a graceful transition between the side and back views.
By reducing unnecessary volume and selectively removing fat
at key balance points, the upper-body center visually lifted,
making the overall figure appear longer and more balanced,
as if the legs were lengthened through proportion correction.
From the side view before surgery,
the lower abdomen projected forward,
making the silhouette appear heavy —
a common concern for brides worried
about how their wedding dress or honeymoon outfits will fit.
While the front view improvement focused on
creating a defined waistline and smooth hip connection,
the side view correction aimed to eliminate
the forward bulge of the belly,
restoring a flat and toned abdominal contour.
At 8 months post abdominal liposuction,
the once-protruding lower abdominal fat around the navel
had completely disappeared,
revealing a smooth, firm front abdomen.
This transformation not only enhances
the fit of wedding dresses and bikini styles,
but also allows for a naturally slimmer and elegant silhouette
in everyday outfits as well.
Through the self-taken photos provided by the patient,
it was clear that she was enjoying a high level of satisfaction
and comfort in her daily life after abdominal liposuction.
The front abdomen and flank fat,
which previously made her upper body appear heavier,
were beautifully refined, resulting in a smooth and slender waistline
that flows naturally into an elegant pelvic curve.
This patient, who had chosen abdominal liposuction
instead of an extreme upper-body diet
to prepare for her wedding dress fitting,
shared that the surgery gave her newfound confidence —
allowing her dress to fit perfectly
and her overall appearance to look more balanced and graceful.
Thanks to her consistent postoperative care and lifestyle maintenance,
she continues to maintain a stable and beautiful result.
As part of her journey to prepare for one of the most special days of her life,
this transformation remains a meaningful and memorable case
for both the patient and our team at Lesarts Plastic Surgery.
