Body Lift

Overview

Get the body contour you desire with customizable body lift procedures to remove redundant skin and create the smoother, more slender silhouette that you have been working towards.

Significant weight loss is a great achievement. Yet, losing weight fast often does not give the skin sufficient time to conform to the new contours of the body, resulting in significant amount of loose skin which camouflages the spectacular new slender you. You can defy the downsides of rapid weight loss or aging with a body lift which will return your shape to its rightful proportions.
The body lift procedure is a comprehensive surgical intervention designed to sculpt, tighten and ultimately eliminate the residual signs of your previous size including any lumpy areas, excess skin and stubborn pockets of fat. It will greatly improve the appearance of your abdomen, buttock, hips and tights while also correcting hanging skin folds and dimples, associated rashes and general discomfort.

Are You a
Candidate for a lower body lift?

Candidates for a body lift are men and women who have undergone significant weight loss due to either surgery, diet or exercise. Other candidates include women looking to remove extra weight as a result of childbirth or natural aging, who want a youthful-looking fit and naturally shaped body contour.
We can address any or all of the following areas of concern:
  • Abdomen and midsection
  • Upper arms
  • Inner and outer thighs
  • Hips and flanks
  • Breasts
  • Buttocks
Candidates must be in good health and should have maintained their target weight for at least 6 months prior to the procedure.

The Recovery Process

We would recommend that you spend a night or two in a monitored environment to ensure a safe and successful start of your recovery. You will be prescribed oral pain medication and a personalized protocol to manage any post-surgical bruising, swelling and discomfort. You will have to wear a compression garment for the first couple of weeks to minimize swelling and help your new body contours heal correctly. You should be able to return to most of your normal activities within three weeks, but we strongly recommend to restrict vigorous activities for up to 8 weeks to prevent complications. Once the swelling and bruising have withdrawn, you will be able to appreciate the dramatic and long-lasting results from the procedure.
