Total Body Lift
Our most successful total body lift patients are those who have had a substantial weight loss, but have retained excess skin that sags. The body lift is an excellent option that is proven to create exciting results! Likely candidates are those who need improvement in the areas of the abdomen, thighs, back, arms, and breasts. The body lift will be customized to meet your individual needs.
Total body lift goes beyond traditional body contouring by not restricting the lift to the lower body. It allows the chest, back, and arms to benefit as well. In this procedure, gentle liposuction may also be used to remove excess fat where needed. Large amounts of skin are typically excised and rolls of skin can be smoothed out.
During this procedure, male breast reduction can be used to give men firmer chests while breast lift or breast reduction can help women to reduce sagging and improve the appearance of their breasts. Because skin tightening and lifting occurs to all these areas, an entire body lift can be achieved with effective results and a return to a more youthful figure.
The operation is quite involved and may be done all at once or in a staged fashion, depending on the extent of what is needed. Recovery may be extensive, but the results achieved, for those who are willing to invest the extra time and effort, are dramatic. Suitability will depend on formal consultation where fitness for surgery will also be assessed and it will be decided if liposuction alone, abdominoplasty with liposuction, or the body lift is more appropriate for the individual patient.
