Improves The Shape

Lower Body Lift Surgery

A lower body lift improves the shape of your body and removes extra skin. This surgery is utilized after significant weight loss or liposuction and body contouring procedures in removing large areas of fatty deposits.

When the body is overweight, the skin develops a dimpled, irregular skin surface known as cellulite. Caused by significant weight gain, pregnancy or heredity, a lower body lift deals with the impact of those effects on the body.

Series Of Surgical Procedures

What is a lower body lift?

A lower body lift is a series of surgical procedures performed at one time with excess skin removed from areas most affected by a major weight loss. Body contouring deals with:

  • The abdominal area, locally and into the lower back area and sides
  • The buttocks, that may be low, flat or shaped unevenly
  • The groin that may sag into the inner thigh
  • The inner or outer thighs.

Best Way To Improve The Appearance

Why undergo lower body lift?

Even if you’ve lost a significant amount of weight, you may still have areas of excess skin which has been severely stretched and damaged. The skin has lost its elasticity. It can hinder your daily performance in the activities you participate in. It can also cause serious hygiene issues. What’s the best way to improve the appearance in these areas? Surgically remove the skin. See which body lift procedure is best Lower Body Lift Northern VA for you:

Lower Body Lift Surgery

Combines techniques from the tummy tuck and the butt lift. Our surgeons work around the lower body by removing the apron of loose skin and tissue. The incisions are placed within natural skin folds to hide post-surgical scars. They may suggest you get body lift and liposuction to remove small areas of excess fat.

Panniculectomy

A panniculectomy is an operation that removes a large hanging apron of skin (pannus) from the abdomen. Patients requiring a panniculectomy often have severe hygiene issues that have resulted in infection, and may require surgical removal to correct these problems. This is not a cosmetic procedure but we do discuss aesthetic considerations with you.

Mons Rejuvenation

Even with significant weight loss, many people still have sagging of tissue over the pubic bone, a region called the mons. Fullness and sagging in this region can cause difficulty with urination and sexual function. Addressing mons issues provides a more youthful appearance.

Extended abdominoplasty

An extended abdominoplasty falls between an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and a body lift. The incision extends onto the back but does not go completely around the torso (like a body lift procedure). It allows for the complete excision of larger abdominal areas and flank region and some lifting of the lateral thighs (but less than with a body lift).

Upper Body Lift

Significant back rolls can be corrected with an upper body lift. Women hide this incision beneath the bra-line. Men’s incision is dictated by the position of the back rolls.

Achieve The Best Results

Are you a good candidate for a lower body lift?

If you’re considering a lower body lift, make sure your weight is stable and that you are in good health overall. Be realistic about the outcome of your procedure and work with Dr. Feledy to achieve the best results for your needs. Let us know if you have high blood pressure, blood-clotting issues, or form excessive scars.

Avoid strenuous activity for six weeks and exposure to the sun for several months. Dr. Feledy will provide specific steps about your recovery following your surgery.
