A body lift, also known as a circumferential body lift or lower body lift, is a comprehensive surgical procedure designed to reshape and tighten the mid and lower body by removing excess skin and fat.
This surgery is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss and are left with loose, hanging skin around their abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks.
Targets multiple areas including the abdomen, back, hips, and thighs.
Removes excess skin, resulting in a smoother, more toned appearance.
Reduces skin irritation and improves mobility by eliminating hanging skin.
Provides a significant improvement in body shape and appearance.
Individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight and have stable weight for six to twelve months.
Non-smokers in good general health with no major chronic conditions.
People with realistic expectations and a commitment to maintaining a healthy lifestyle post-surgery.
Patients are placed under general anesthesia.
An incision is made around the entire circumference of the body, typically at the belt line.
The surgeon removes excess skin and fat.
Muscles and tissues are tightened to create a smoother contour.
The remaining skin is pulled taut and sutured in place.
Patients are fitted with a compression garment and monitored in the recovery room.
Most patients can return to non-strenuous work in about two weeks. Full recovery, including resuming exercise, typically takes around six weeks.
Scars are placed in areas that can be concealed by underwear or swimwear. Over time, scars will fade and become less noticeable.
Initial results are visible immediately, but final results will be fully appreciated after swelling and bruising subside, usually within three to six months.
