Body Lift in Atlanta, GA | DiFrancesco Plastic Surgery

What is a Body Lift?

Body lift surgery is a comprehensive cosmetic procedure designed to address excess skin and fat following significant weight loss. This advanced technique focuses on reshaping the lower body, including the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs in a single surgical session. DiFrancesco Plastic Surgery utilizes strategic incision placement to minimize visible scarring while effectively removing excess tissue and tightening underlying muscles.

Body Contouring Procedures

Body contouring often involves multiple potential procedures, which may include:

• Facelift
• Neck Lift
• Arm Lift
• Breast Lift
• Thigh Lift
• Buttock Lift
• Tummy Tuck
• Lower Body Lift

Ideal Candidates for Body Lift Surgery

The most suitable candidates for body lift surgery are individuals who have experienced massive weight loss and are left with stretched skin and stubborn fat deposits. Candidates should be at or near their goal weight and have maintained a stable, healthy lifestyle. It's crucial to understand that a body lift is not a weight loss procedure but a body contouring solution.

Recovery and Expectations

Body lift recovery typically requires one to two weeks away from regular activities. Patients should expect to wear compression garments for approximately six weeks and follow specific post-operative instructions. Most patients return to normal daily activities within 1-2 weeks, with full recovery taking 4-6 weeks.

Procedure Details

A comprehensive body lift includes circumferential skin excision around the lower abdomen and back. The procedure may incorporate liposuction, tummy tuck techniques, and potential buttock augmentation to achieve optimal body contouring results.
