Understanding Body Lift Surgery

Body lift surgery is a transformative procedure designed for individuals who have lost significant weight and struggle with excess, sagging skin. At California Aesthetic Center, Dr. Steve T. Vu specializes in helping patients achieve their aesthetic goals by removing redundant skin and contouring the body.

What is a Body Lift?

After substantial weight loss, skin often loses elasticity and fails to retract to the body's new shape. A body lift surgically removes excess skin, helping patients feel more comfortable and confident in their transformed physique.

Procedure Options

  • Lower Body Lift:
  • Upper Arm Lift:
  • Breast Lift:

Ideal Candidates

  • Stable body weight for at least 6 months
  • BMI between 18-25
  • Good overall health
  • No smoking or excessive alcohol consumption
  • Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Surgical Benefits

Body lift surgery offers numerous advantages including:

  • Improved body contour and appearance
  • Enhanced clothing fit
  • Reduced risk of skin-related medical issues
  • Increased self-confidence

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect significant improvements in body shape, though initial recovery requires careful adherence to post-operative instructions. Wearing surgical garments and avoiding excessive activity are crucial during the healing process.

Consultation and Next Steps

Dr. Steve T. Vu recommends a comprehensive consultation to determine individual surgical needs and potential outcomes. Each body lift procedure is uniquely tailored to the patient's specific requirements.

Dr. Vu removed a basal cell cancer from my left eyelid on 1-16-24, but in the process my cornea was damaged leaving me almost blind, and requiring MANY follow up visits with ophthalmologists to heal it. 3 months later, my vision is almost back to normal, but a new nodule developed at the same spot as the original cancer. A biopsy showed it to be more basal cell cancer, indicating to me that not all the cancer was removed during the surgery. Now I am facing another surgery to remove this one. I would NOT recommend Dr. Vu to anyone (and now have an oculo-plastic doctor doing the next surgery).

We were extremely pleased with Dr. Vu and his staff. I had skin cancer surgery on my upper lip area, and though it is still healing, we are confident that Dr. Vu did all that could be done and in the very best way possible. From the moment we met Dr. Vu, we liked him. He carefully explained my options and what to expect going into and out of surgery. We appreciated the check-up visits, instruction, and encouragement that he most patiently afforded us.

Dr. Vu changed my life! This is my first cosmetic surgery and was very nervous about the whole procedure, but I knew it was medically necessary to get the breast reduction. Dr. Vu ensured he educated me with the procedure. He didn’t sugar coat it and was very straight forward with the information. After the surgery, I am 100% happy with Dr Vu’s work! He and his team made sure they took good care of me medically, insurance and any other paperwork. Rose is an amazing insurance coordinator!!! Dr Vu, Rose and Cocoa are a fantastic team! Very responsive and caring. I highly recommend Dr Vu and his team for ALL your Cosmetic Surgeries 💙

I’m 4 weeks post op from a tummy tuck done by Dr. Vu and I am already so happy with my results! I can’t wait to see the final results once all the swelling goes down. Dr. Vu is excellent and always takes the time to answer my questions and explain everything. I would highly recommend him!
