The Body Lift procedure is often performed after a patient undergoes bariatric surgery or achieves a significant, fast weight loss through traditional diet and exercise. The Body Lift procedure may be customized to meet each individual patient’s specific needs, or may be paired with other body contouring procedures such as liposuction if there is still excess, stubborn fat in the area as well. When you achieve a substantial weight loss, you want to be able to confidently show off the results, but excess, sagging skin can put a damper on that–so, the body lift can be the finishing touch you need to complete your incredible weight loss achievement.
Ideal candidates for the Body Lift procedure are in good mental and physical health, with realistic expectations for the procedure and its potential results.
