There are generally three types of body lift surgeries:

• LOWER BODY LIFT, OR BELT-LIPECTOMY.
• UPPER BODY LIFT OR TORSOPLASTY.
• FULL/TOTAL BODY LIFT, A COMBINATION OF THE TWO.

WHAT IS A LOWER BODY LIFT?

A lower body lift, or Belt Lipectomy, is a procedure performed to contour the thighs, hips, and buttocks. The procedure can also help to treat Cellulite. Many patients choose to combine lower body lift surgery with an Abdominoplasty ( tummy tuck ) or a mid body lift.

WHAT IS AN UPPER BODY LIFT?

An upper body lift or Torsoplasty procedure is performed to remove fat and extra skin from the arms, breasts and abdomen. In an upper body lift, the arms are treated with an arm lift and the breasts are contoured with a breast lift. These two surgeries can be performed separately or during a mid or lower body lift.

BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO UNDERGO BODY LIFT SURGERY

• Your weight must be relatively stable.
• Women considering future pregnancies should postpone an abdominal body lift since pregnancy may diminish the results.

PREPARING FOR A BODY LIFT PRIOR TO SURGERY, YOU MAY BE ASKED TO:

• Get lab testing or a medical evaluation.
• Take certain medications or adjust your current medications.
• Stop smoking well in advance of surgery.
• Avoid taking aspirin, Anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.
