What is Lower Body Lift?

A Lower Body Lift, also known as belt lipectomy, is a comprehensive cosmetic surgery commonly used after extreme weight loss. This umbrella term often includes multiple procedures designed to reshape and tighten the lower body, including the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs. Excess skin and fat are removed, liposuction may also be utilized to sculpt away excess fat deposits, and refined surgical techniques are used to minimize scarring and offer highly natural-looking results.

What’s the difference between a Lower Body Lift and a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck focuses specifically on the abdominal area, removing excess skin and fat and tightening abdominal muscles for a flatter, firmer stomach. In contrast, a Lower Body Lift is an all-encompassing group of procedures that address the entire lower body together. This may include the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, hips, and thighs, making it ideal for patients with extensive sagging skin due to significant weight loss or aging.

Benefits of Lower Body Lift

Whether sagging, loose skin is due to aging, weight loss, or other factors, a Lower Body Lift is a completely customizable way to transform your look and regain lost confidence. Shop for swimwear, shorts, or lingerie again with a renewed sense of positivity and finally enjoy your weight loss results to the fullest.

What areas of the body can be treated by a Lower Body Lift?

A Lower Body Lift can effectively treat the following areas:

  • Abdomen | Target excess skin and fat in the abdominal area, providing a firmer, flatter stomach.
  • Flanks (Love Handles) | Create a smoother, more contoured waistline.
  • Buttocks | Lift and reshape the buttocks, improving overall contour.
  • Hips | Enhance the body's curves and see a more toned and proportionate look.
  • Thighs | Focus on the inner and outer thighs to achieve a smoother, firmer shape and contour.

Candidates

Ideal candidates for a Lower Body Lift are patients who are in generally good health and have reached and maintained a stable goal weight. It's important that patients also have realistic expectations for the outcomes of this procedure and be able to closely follow recovery instructions for proper healing.

At your consultation, Dr. Stark will discuss an assortment of options to fully customize your procedure and include techniques to address each one of your aesthetic concerns. He will also perform an examination and learn about your full medical history to ensure this will be a safe and effective procedure for you to undergo. Preparation for a body lift may require lab work or other information to be collected.

Procedure

Prior to a lower body lift Philadelphia patients will have the targeted areas marked on their bodies to confirm the desired transformation. Lower Body Lift is usually performed under general anesthesia and takes four to five hours. Dr. Stark will use a combination of surgical skill and artistic vision to transform your lower body for a natural look with as little scarring as possible.

Results, Recovery, and Aftercare

Some Philadelphia lower body lift patients may stay one night in recovery depending on the extent of surgery, but most are home the same day or the next. Since this is typically an extensive surgery, recovery from this procedure typically takes about two to four weeks at which point most patients can return to regular activities and up to eight weeks for exercise and other vigorous activities. Final results may take up to one to two years as residual swelling resolves and tissues continue to heal.
