Achieve comprehensive body transformation with lower body lift surgery that removes excess skin circumferentially in a single procedure
A lower body lift is a comprehensive body contouring procedure designed specifically for patients who have lost significant weight, addressing excess skin and tissue around the entire lower torso in a single surgery. This transformative procedure removes excess skin creating smooth, well-proportioned body contours.
Lower body lift surgery for massive weight loss patients combines advanced surgical techniques to achieve dramatic body transformation. This circumferential procedure provides 360-degree body contouring, addressing areas that diet and exercise cannot improve once significant weight loss has occurred.
During a consultation, body anatomy is assessed, aesthetic goals are discussed, and a personalized surgical plan is created to achieve natural-looking, proportionate results while minimizing visible scarring and optimizing safety.
Address multiple areas in a single surgery, removing excess skin from abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks simultaneously.
Achieve complete lower body reshaping with circumferential skin and fat removal for balanced, proportionate results.
Feel proud of your weight loss achievement with a body that reflects your hard work and dedication.
Eliminate excess skin that interferes with movement, exercise, and daily activities for better quality of life.
Enjoy shopping for and wearing clothes that fit properly without excess fabric or uncomfortable bunching.
Undergo one comprehensive surgery and recovery instead of multiple separate procedures over time.
Lower body lift surgery may be right for you if you meet the following criteria:
You have achieved significant weight loss and maintained stable weight
You are in good overall health with no serious medical conditions that would impair healing
You have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes and understand the extensive recovery required
You have significant excess, sagging skin around your entire lower body that does not improve with exercise
You are a non-smoker or willing to quit smoking well before and after surgery
You are committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle and stable weight after surgery
You understand this is major surgery requiring extended recovery
You have a strong support system to assist with recovery and daily activities
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) addresses only the front abdominal area, removing excess skin and tightening muscles from the front. A lower body lift is a much more comprehensive procedure that addresses the entire lower body circumference in 360 degrees. Lower body lifts are specifically designed for massive weight loss patients who have excess skin around their entire torso.
Yes, lower body lift surgery results in a significant circumferential scar around your waistline. However, the incision is carefully placed to be concealed by underwear, swimwear, and most clothing. The scar is typically positioned at or just below the natural waistline. While scars are permanent, they fade significantly over time and are generally considered an acceptable trade-off for the dramatic body contouring results achieved.
Lower body lift surgery is not a weight loss procedure but a body contouring procedure. While you will lose some weight from the removed skin and tissue, the primary goal is to remove excess skin and reshape your body contours. You should be at or near your goal weight and have maintained stable weight before considering this surgery.
Lower body lift is already a comprehensive procedure that addresses multiple areas. Some patients may combine it with arm lift (brachioplasty) or breast lift as part of a complete post-bariatric body contouring plan. However, combining procedures increases complexity. Your surgeon will assess your individual situation and recommend the safest approach, which may involve staging procedures appropriately.
