A lower body lift, also known as a belt lipectomy, is a transformative cosmetic surgery designed to reshape and tone the lower body by removing excess skin and fat. This procedure targets the abdomen, buttocks, hips, and outer thighs, offering a more sculpted and youthful contour, especially after significant weight loss or pregnancy.
Who is it for?
You may consider a lower body lift if you have:
Loose, sagging skin around the abdomen, buttocks, or thighs
Excess skin folds causing discomfort, rashes, or hygiene issues
A desire to improve body contour and confidence after major weight loss
Stable weight for at least 6-12 months
Good general health with realistic expectations
Benefits of Lower Body Lift
🔹 Fine lines & wrinkles (especially around the eyes & mouth) 🔹 Acne scars & other facial scars 🔹 Uneven skin tone or texture 🔹 Sun-damaged skin 🔹 Age spots, freckles & hyperpigmentation 🔹 Enlarged pores 🔹 Stretch marks (in some cases)
Procedure Details
During the surgery:
Anesthesia – General anesthesia is administered for comfort.
Incision – A circumferential incision is made around the waistline (like a belt).
Excess Skin Removal – Loose skin and fat are removed from the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs.
Tissue Repositioning – Underlying tissues are tightened and repositioned for a smoother contour.
Closure – Incisions are closed with sutures, and drains may be placed to reduce fluid buildup.
The surgery usually takes 4-6 hours, depending on the extent of correction required.
Recovery After Lower Body Lift
Recovery is gradual but rewarding. You can expect:
Hospital stay of 1-2 days for monitoring.
Swelling, bruising, and discomfort for the first 2-3 weeks.
Wearing compression garments to support healing and reduce swelling.
Light walking encouraged soon after surgery to promote circulation.
Most patients return to work in 3-4 weeks, while full recovery and results become evident in 2-3 months.
Following your surgeon’s post-operative care instructions ensures the best outcomes and minimal complications.
