Added on 26th March 2019

In this video we’ll be looking at who is a good candidate for a body lift procedure, an operation that rejuvenates the abdominal area, removing excess skin and fat. It can also be referred to as a ‘belt lipectomy’ or ‘full body lift’.

Many patients feel disheartened after losing a substantial amount of weight only to be left with excess skin or fat. Therefore, patients that have accomplished significant weight loss are ideal candidates a body lift procedure, whereby they may wish to lose excess skin that’s accumulated following the changes in their body. The body lift procedure removes circumferential tissue from around the body to achieve the abdominal skin removal.

In this video we’ll take a further look into the placement of the skin removal scars. We’ll be giving a detailed view of scars after a lower body lift surgery, and also skin removal scars from the upper body part of the chest – referred to as a reverse bodylift.

We explain the difference between candidates who would benefit from a typical abdominoplasty, and those who would be more suited to a bodylift. In this instance, the patient was recommended a body lift procedure due to the excess skin on his back and sides. The images in this video are taken from our case studies featuring previous patients, clearly showing the positive results of a lower bodylift.
