Maria Isabel's transformation on TVI's Dois às Dez
Maria Isabel’s Before and After Cases
Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty, Rhinoplasty, Lift, Liposuction, Abdominoplasty
- We removed the excess skin on the upper and lower eyelids, and stretched the sagging skin on the neck, which prevented the jaw area from being so defined.
- In terms of the body, we carried out a Liposuction and a Abdominoplasty.
- Maria Isabel had accumulations of fat on her back, at the level of her flanks, and some flab on the front of her belly.
- Our main goal was to remove the heaviness that was clinging to Isabel's face and give her a flatter, firmer abdomen.
- Maria Isabel had a long nose that was disproportionate to the size of her face and a thin face with no volume.
Maria Isabel's story
Maria Isabel, 54.
A sad, difficult life entirely dedicated to others. Coming from a poor family with six siblings, she experienced many financial difficulties and never managed to go beyond 4th grade.
When she was 10, she lost her father and her mother took her out of school to go work in the fields and look after the cattle. Money was tight, she never had the chance to see a dentist and admits she never had a holiday, “I don't even know what that is”.
Every episode in her life has left visible marks. She admits that she doesn't like looking at herself in the mirror and that she's never had the courage to tell her husband and son that she has no teeth.
What was his biggest dream came true!
