Body Lift Surgery
Unfortunately, many people who lose massive amounts of weight, whether through diet and exercise or bariatric surgery, are left with sagging skin and stubborn deposits of fat on various parts of their bodies, especially around the midsection. This can make it difficult for them to embrace their new bodies and find clothes that fit properly, as well as making them more vulnerable to skin infections and causing self-consciousness and general discomfort. Fortunately, plastic surgery offers a highly effective solution in the form of body lift surgery.

Body lift is an extremely effective plastic surgery procedure for patients with excess skin, fat, and other tissues that linger after substantial weight loss. Depending on the location of the surplus skin, patients may choose to undergo either an upper, mid, or lower body lift. For patients with significant amounts of excess skin throughout the midsection, lower body, and extremities, a combination of these techniques called full or total body lift may be the best option.
As is the case with most other plastic surgery procedures, body lift surgery is highly customizable to the unique needs and goals of the individual patient. If you believe that body lift surgery might be right for you, it is important that you entrust your procedure to a skilled, experienced plastic surgeon with a history or producing outstanding results for patients with similar cases.
