Results and considerations:
Remember: A body lift is a major surgery. Consulting with a qualified professional to understand the risks and recovery process is crucial.
You have considerable skin excess on different body parts, like abdomen, chest, back, thighs or arms? This tissue excess does not respond to diet or workout? In this case you are a good candidate for a lifting procedure. This surgery is the only way to remove this excess tissue in a satisfying and long lasting way.
The best candidates for the body lift are in good physical condition with significant loose, inelastic skin on much of the body. The body lift is often sought by individuals following childbirth or massive weight loss, such as with bariatric surgery.
In essence, the body lift combines the techniques of abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), liposuction, the thigh lift and the buttock lift. It may be performed as two separate procedures several months apart. In total, surgical times may take three to seven hours under general anesthesia. During surgery, excess skin may be removed from the abdomen, buttocks and thighs, and excess fat may be removed with liposuction techniques.
As an inpatient procedure, the hospital stay is typically two to three days. Patients are ambulated form the first postoperative day onwards. Back home you can walk and go to the bathroom by yourself but should not engage in any other activity other than just recovering. Healing time until suture removal takes 2 weeks. You can go back to your normal daily routine within 3 to 4 weeks.
The scars will be placed as inconspicuously as possible in the abdomen and back area, as well as groin area in the case of a thigh lift. This will be discussed with you during your consultation.
Post-operative complications from body lifting surgery are possible and may include bleeding, infection, seromas, and poor healing. This will be discussed with you during your consultation at our clinic.
