Jamie’s Transformation: Confidence & Freedom After Weight Loss

From Weight Loss to True Confidence

For Jamie, self-improvement has always been a personal mission. As a childcare business owner and dedicated mother of two, she had put in the effort to transform her body, losing 70 pounds through a combination of Optavia and Burn Boot Camp workouts four times a week.

But despite her hard work, her stomach didn’t look the way she had always dreamed it would.

“I just couldn’t get my tummy to look how I had always imagined,” she shares.

Jamie wanted to love what she saw in the mirror—and she wasn’t going to stop until she found a way to achieve that goal. That’s when she discovered Sono Bello Edina and made the decision to take the next step in her transformation.

Choosing Sono Bello in Edina, MN

Having never undergone surgery before, Jamie was initially nervous about the process. But from the moment she arrived at Sono Bello Edina, she knew she was in good hands.

“I’ve never had any surgeries in my whole life, and this was easy,” she recalls.

During her consultation, Jamie felt completely at ease as the team walked her through her options and answered all of her questions.

“I felt so comfortable. I completely understood my options and felt confident moving forward,” she says.

Under the care of Dr. Kim, Jamie opted for a customized procedure plan to enhance her weight loss results and help her finally feel comfortable in her own skin.

The Procedure: Removing Loose Skin & Sculpting Her Shape

Jamie underwent AbEX™ and TriSculpt® micro-laser liposuction to target her upper and lower abdomen, waist, hips, and pubic area.

• AbEX™: A skin removal and tightening procedure that eliminated loose, excess skin left behind after weight loss, creating a firmer, more toned abdominal area.
• TriSculpt® Micro-Laser Liposuction: A minimally invasive treatment that sculpted and defined her waist and hips, refining her silhouette to match the hard work she had already put in at the gym.

Life After Sono Bello: Confidence, Joy, and Feeling Free

The transformation was more than just physical—it gave Jamie a new sense of freedom.

“I no longer suck in when getting my picture taken. No more right angles—it’s all good now!” she says.

Her newfound confidence has also extended beyond the mirror.

“In the bedroom, that’s fun” she adds with a laugh. “I just feel brave and so happy!”

Now, Jamie is excited to fully embrace her results.

“I’m so excited to wear tight shirts and bikinis that aren’t high-waisted anymore,” she shares.

Inspiring Others Through Her Journey

Jamie believes that her transformation isn’t just about her—it’s about showing other women what’s possible.

“I want to show women that they can actually love what they see in the mirror,” she says. “Sono Bello changed everything for me, and I want to give back by sharing my experience.”

Her journey is a testament to the fact that self-love is a process, and sometimes, it takes the right tools and support to achieve your ultimate goals.
