BODY LIFT
What is a Body Lift?
A body lift, or belt lipectomy, is a comprehensive surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat while tightening underlying tissues. It is typically sought by individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, leading to loose, sagging skin around the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks. The goal of a body lift is to create a more toned, firm, and contoured appearance, improving both body shape and overall confidence.
Types of Body Lift
Lower Body Lift:
Targets the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and outer thighs, creating a firmer, more sculpted lower body contour.
Upper Body Lift:
Focuses on the upper torso, including the chest, back, and arms, addressing loose skin and excess fat.
Full Body Lift:
Combines both upper and lower body lifts for a comprehensive transformation, often chosen by individuals who have undergone massive weight loss.

Body Lift Procedure Details
A body lift is performed under general anesthesia and typically lasts 4-6 hours, depending on the extent of the procedure. The surgery involves making incisions to remove excess skin and fat, followed by lifting and tightening the remaining tissue to create a more toned contour.
Recovery and Follow-up
After a body lift, you can expect swelling, bruising, and moderate to severe discomfort, which will gradually subside over time. You will be advised to wear compression garments to support the treated areas and aid in healing. Light activities can be resumed within 2-3 weeks, but strenuous exercises should be avoided for at least 8-12 weeks.
Immediate Follow-up:
5-7 days post-surgery for suture removal (if needed).
Long-term Follow-up:
Check-ins at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months to monitor progress and ensure optimal results.
