What Procedures Are Included in a Lower Body Lift?

Posted April 08, 2025 in Lower Body Lift

A lower body lift is an extensive surgical procedure designed for patients who have achieved significant weight loss but struggle with excess, sagging skin. By combining multiple body contouring techniques, lower body lift is designed to enhance the contours of the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, making it a popular option for patients who want transformative results. Dr. Scott Green, a board-certified plastic surgeon, specializes in lower body lift surgery to help patients achieve a smoother, firmer, and more sculpted physique. This comprehensive procedure involves multiple surgical techniques to address excess skin and improve overall body shape.

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

A lower body lift includes an abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck. This procedure removes excess skin and tightens weakened abdominal muscles to create a flatter, firmer midsection. It is particularly beneficial for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight and struggle with sagging skin around the lower abdomen.

Outer Thigh Lift

Sagging skin around the outer thighs can be a common concern after weight loss. An outer thigh lift is performed to reshape the thighs by removing excess skin and tightening the remaining tissue. This helps improve the overall contour of the lower body, creating a more toned and youthful appearance. Adding volume to the buttocks can help make the torso and legs appear smaller in comparison.

Buttock Lift

A buttock lift is another essential component of a lower body lift. This procedure removes sagging skin from the buttocks, improving their shape and position. In some cases, patients may also choose to combine a buttock lift with fat transfer or augmentation to restore lost volume and enhance curves.

Lower Back and Flank Contouring

Excess skin around the lower back and flanks can be addressed as part of a lower body lift to create a more balanced, smooth appearance. By removing this loose skin and tightening the underlying structures, patients can enjoy a more defined waistline and improved body proportions.
