Achieving a large weight reduction, via diets, workouts, or surgical methods, marks a huge success. However, leftover, hanging skin can stop you from fully taking pleasure in your results. A body lift provides a potent choice, rebuilding a toned, tight figure by taking away extra skin and firming tissues underneath. Refine plastic surgery’s body lift methods are highly unique, mixing diverse techniques to meet the precise needs of each patient, if focusing on the top or bottom body—or a mix of both.
What Is a Body Lift?
A body lift is a full method made to fix extra skin and tissue after major weight loss. It can centre on either the lower body, upper body, or both:
Lower Body Lift
This 360-degree method, termed belt abdominoplasty or a circle belt lift, merges the gains of a tummy tuck, outer thigh lift, and butt lift. By fixing the whole trunk, the lower body lift forms a more shaped waist, tighter thighs, and raised buttocks.
Upper Body Lift
An upper body lift aims for spots like the arms, breasts, and top back. Methods often add an arm lift and breast lift, plus the taking away of extra tissue from side bra folds and top back folds.
Personalized Body Contouring
At Refine plastic surgery, we know each patient’s path differs. Based on your aims, diverse blends of these steps may be done at once or over several surgeries. This custom plan approach ensures optimal & ideal effects that fit your body’s wants and your healing choices.
What to Expect During Body Lift Surgery?
Body lift is performed under anesthesia at our safe, approved facility. Here’s a simple look at how it works:
Lower Body
Lift Cuts are made low, hidden by swimwear, so the surgeon can take out extra skin and fix belly muscles.
The upper belly skin is pulled down, replacing lower skin, and your belly button is moved.
Patient is placed face-down, to complete llateral hip and buttock lift.
Upper Body Lift
This focuses on lifting and firming a patient’s arms, chest, and upper back.
Extra tissue from those bra and back bulges is taken away, for a nice, smooth shape.
Patients requires at least 2-3 days stay at the clinic and will typically need a drain for 3-5 days to deter seroma/ hematoma formation that is usually drained if it occurs One of our surgeons will go over abdominoplasty recovery instructions in order to minimize any discomfort.
