WHAT IS A BODY LIFT?

One of the most common side effects of major weight loss is lingering, saggy skin. The older a person is when they lose weight, the less collagen and elastin their skin has. These two elements are vital for skin to “snap back.” Genetics also plays a role in how much collagen and elastin a person has, and can make it difficult for the skin to stay firm and lifted.

A body lift is series of surgical procedures that address excess or sagging skin throughout the body. It targets key areas such as the abdomen, arms, legs, or other areas of the body.

WHAT A BODY LIFT CAN INCLUDE

The primary goal of a body lift is to remove excess skin and stubborn fat. It is often combined with liposuction to target pockets of fat that won’t budge with diet and exercise. Body lifts can also smooth out the skin to remove dimpling and irregular surfaces, which is common with dramatic fat loss.

  • Arm lift (Brachioplasty): Saggy upper arm skin is a common side effect of sudden fat loss.
  • Butt lift: Butt lifts and/or augmentation can restore shape and perkiness to a droopy derriere.
  • Liposuction: Surgical and permanent removal of fat deposits helps to shape and contour the body.
  • Thigh lift: Loose skin on and near the thighs and buttocks can be lifted and shaped for a voluptuous, smooth appearance.
  • Tummy tuck: The belly, sides, and lower back area can be “trimmed” and shaped to achieve a flat, taut tummy and remove the muffin top.

BENEFITS OF A BODY LIFT

A body lift can offer both cosmetic and functional results. The removal of excess skin decreases heaviness. In some cases, excess skin can be so severe it begins to overlap itself. This can lead to chafing, infections, and negatively impacting self-confidence. A body lift provides firm skin tone and natural-looking, beautiful body contours. Achieve tighter thighs, abdomen, and breasts with this highly customized procedure. Body lifts can lift the tummy, buttocks, thighs, and even the genitals.

WHAT IS A BODY LIFT?

The body lift surgery option takes on many forms depending upon your needs. Patients who have had massive weight loss (such as through bariatric surgery) are ideal candidates for body lift surgery.

WHAT AREAS ARE IN PART OF A BODY LIFT?

A body lift can include the abdomen, buttocks, hips, thighs, back, and flanks. However, it can also be combined with other procedures, such as an upper arm lift, a back lift, and liposuction. Every patient’s body lift procedure is unique.

WHY DO PEOPLE WANT A BODY LIFT?

Skin can sag excessively due to weight loss, pregnancy, and age. No amount of diet or exercise can change or remove loose skin, which makes a body lift the only option to restore natural contours for some patients.

Body contouring can include a wide range of procedures including a body lift. These procedures can be surgical or non-surgical, but all are designed to contour and shape the body.
