Before & After
Mommy Makeover
Dr. Christopher K. Patronella’s post-pregnancy procedures, known as the True Form Mommy Makeover®, restore a woman’s body with natural-looking results. Combining tummy tuck, breast surgery, and body contouring, his method focuses on muscle repair, skin tightening, and fat reshaping to rejuvenate the physique after pregnancy and childbirth.
Skin Tightening
Dr. Christopher K. Patronella offers advanced skin tightening procedures as part of his body contouring treatments. Using techniques that complement his True Form approach, he addresses loose, sagging skin—especially after pregnancy or weight loss—by removing excess tissue and enhancing skin firmness to create smoother, more youthful body contours.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
Dr. Christopher K. Patronella’s tummy tuck utilizes his True Form Tummy Tuck® technique to restore a natural, toned abdominal appearance. It includes tightening of the abdominal muscles, precise removal of excess skin and fat, and refined contouring to create smooth, elegant transitions from the waist to the hips for lasting, natural-looking results.
