A brief detailing of each body lift surgery is as follows:

  • Upper Body Lift Surgery:

The upper boy lift surgery includes the combination of Brachioplasty, upper back lift, and breast lift.


  • Lower Body

Lift/Beltplasty/Circumferential Abdominoplasty: It includes circumferential abdominoplasty, butt lift may be with auto-augmentation, and outer thigh lift. This type of body lift addresses the mid-section of the body, including the flanks, outer thighs, buttocks, and lower abdomen. An incision is made across the lower part of the abdomen down to the inner thighs. Loose skin will be removed and the remaining skin will be tightened, giving the lower section of the body a greatly improved aesthetic. Lower body lift is usually performed under general anesthesia.


  • Dermolipectomy/Panniculectomy :When only the skin is loose and muscle tone is very good and recti are attached to each other in the mid-line, there is no need to plicate muscle. Only skin excision is done, which is called dermolipectomy or the only skin abdominoplasty. As muscle is not tightened, recovery is very fast. So many men just require dermolipectomy.
    Dermolipectomy is also performed in elderly or obese means less fit patients if they are disabled to take personal hygiene care because of the hanging pendulum of the abdomen.- Fleur De Lis Tummy TuckAfter massive weight loss skin is extra not only in a vertical dimension but also in a horizontal dimension. in such situation
    When skin is too much in excess in both dimensions, It requires excision in the horizontal and vertical directions. the fleur de lis name is derived from this type of incision. After removing fat and tightening of muscle, the skin is excised in three petal shapes. One reaches up to the breast bone and two go lateral around the hip bone. The skin is pulled down and centrally. The resultant incision is like an inverted “T” shape.

    • Inner Thigh Lift:

    Thigh lift or thighplasty is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin from the inner thighs. This procedure is commonly performed for those patients who have lost a large amount of weight and now experiencing loose sagging skin on the inner thighs.

    • Face Lift:

    To address the visible sign of aging such as sagging, thinning of the face, double chin, deepening of fold lines as well as the appearance of wrinkles the procedure of Rhitedectomy or facelift surgery is performed. A facelift is not just skin tightening surgery; it re-positions the facial tissue into a more youthful position. Another procedure that might be performed with facelift surgery is brow lift and eyelid surgery to rejuvenate aging eyes.

Assessing the problem area: On the day of the surgery, the discussion will be done again, your physical fitness is also evaluated and preoperative formalities are done.

Marking: The Cosmetic surgeon will mark the treatment area to use as guidelines in the procedure.

Anesthesia: Body lift surgery requires general anesthesia.

Incision: The next step is to make a tiny incision.

Infiltration: The surgeon will inject a highly diluted anesthesia fluid into the marked area to reduce blood loss and soften the fat for gentle extraction. The amount of infiltration is done depending on the quality and quantity of fat and the remaining area is infiltrated with less fluid.

Fat Aspiration: A small cannula is slid under the skin and moves back and forth to remove the fat cells. Liposuction can be done through various technologies that are described in liposuction. The aim is to remove residual fat after weight loss.

Skin Excision: the excision technique varies according to the plan of the surgery, i.e.,

  • Excised extra skin
  • Skin is closed in layers under appropriate tension
  • Bilateral symmetry
  • Hidden scar
  • Smooth healing.

You will be provided with pressure garments and post-surgical care instructions once you’ve awakened fully from the anesthesia. The Doctor and the surgical staff will be there to monitor you.

However, you will also be experiencing some swelling post-surgery, which will resolve over time. The concerned body area shape gets improvement, which goes on for 6 to 8 months.
