Body Lift
 
   
 

"I have a tire roll around my waist."

What is a body lift?

A Belt Lipectomy, also known as the lower body lift, offers the most dramatic transformation of the mid and lower body. It is truly a ‘resculpting’ of the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks. Broken into its components, the lower body lift includes a tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty), a thigh lift and a buttock lift.

The body lift procedure is performed on post bariatric patients as well as patients who have not had weight loss. The body lift transforms patients that have experienced massive weight loss and have excess skin. However, results are just as dramatic in patients who in addition to a tummy tuck want a tightening of the skin in their thighs and buttocks. The body lift (belt lipectomy) has the advantage that it can be done in one surgical session, or in stages, depending on the patients needs.


What is involved in the lower body lift?

The body lift procedure is done under general anesthesia. Dr. Somsak performs the body lift surgeries at Kasemrad Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand. Excess skin and fat from the entire midsection of the body is removed. The skin closure is tailored to enhance the figure.


How long is the recovery?

Following the body lift procedure patients should plan to be out of work for 3 weeks. Some patients can resume limited work functions after 2 weeks.
