Most commonly, a body lift treats both the abdomen and the back area and is therefore circumferential. A complete lower body lift treats the buttocks, tummy, waist, hips and thighs in one procedure. A circumferential incision around the body removes an apron of excess skin and fat and repositions and tightens tissue.
Body Lift: A body lift improves the shape and tone of the underlying tissue that supports skin and fat. Excess sagging skin and fat are removed and the procedure(s) can improve a dimpled, irregular skin surface.
Thigh lift: A thigh lift (thighplasty) is a cosmetic procedure that can improve the contours and tone of your thighs. This surgery works by removing excess fat and sagging skin. You may choose to get a thigh lift if you've lost a lot of weight. You should see the full results of your thigh lift after six months.
It may take two years or more for the final results of the body lift procedures to fully develop. Some visible scars will remain, but the overall results are long lasting, provided that you maintain a stable weight and general fitness. As your body ages, it is natural to lose some firmness.
A tummy tuck is where we remove excess belly skin and reshape your abdomen area only. A body lift is a more intense version that also takes care of your back and sides, offering a significant overhaul of the center of your physique.
You are likely to experience soreness and pain in the incision sites during the first week post-surgery. You will notice the bruising rapidly subside.
Many patients see a weight loss from between 5 to 15 pounds after their lower body lift cosmetic surgery.
