What Is a Body Lift?

A body lift is a comprehensive surgery that removes excess skin and fat while tightening supportive tissues. It is especially beneficial for patients after major weight loss, creating smoother contours and a more proportionate silhouette. A body lift addresses:

Loose or sagging skin on the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks
Tissue laxity after significant weight changes or pregnancy
Areas of discomfort or restricted mobility from excess tissue
Desire for long-lasting improvement in body contour and shape

Who Is a Candidate for a Body Lift?

Candidates for a body lift in Orlando are typically in good overall health and nonsmokers, with significant skin laxity following weight loss, pregnancy, or aging. A consultation allows the surgeon to assess individual goals, review medical history, and create a tailored plan to ensure safe and natural outcomes.

Body Lift Recovery and Results

Recovery involves swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the initial weeks. Most patients return to light activity in two to three weeks, with full recovery taking several months. As healing progresses, final results reveal slimmer, smoother contours that can last for years when paired with stable weight.

Different Approaches to Body Lift Surgery

Body lifts can be customized to address specific areas of concern. Options include:

Upper Body Lift

Targets sagging in the lateral chest and back.

Lower Body Lift

Focuses on the thighs, hips, and buttocks.

Total Body Lift

A comprehensive approach for patients after massive weight loss.

Other Options Beyond a Body Lift

Thigh Lift: Refines the legs by smoothing and tightening skin.
