A body lift with an extended tummy tuck is a comprehensive body contouring procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat while tightening and reshaping the midsection, flanks, and lower back. This procedure is ideal for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy-related changes, or aging-related skin laxity and want a firmer, more sculpted appearance.
Unlike a standard tummy tuck, an extended tummy tuck addresses a larger area, including the waist and lower back, providing a more dramatic transformation. A body lift further enhances the results by lifting and tightening sagging skin around the abdomen, hips, lower back, and sometimes the thighs and buttocks. This approach creates a smooth, contoured silhouette and restores a more youthful, toned body shape.
During the procedure, excess skin and fat are carefully removed, and the underlying muscles are tightened to improve core strength and definition. Liposuction may be used for additional sculpting. Recovery varies based on the extent of the procedure, but most patients can resume light activities within a few weeks, with final results gradually revealing a beautifully contoured physique as swelling subsides.
If you’re looking for a comprehensive body transformation after weight loss or skin laxity, a body lift with an extended tummy tuck may be the perfect solution for you. Contact our office today to schedule a consultation and take the next step toward achieving your body goals!
