Understanding Body Lift Surgery

Massive weight loss can dramatically transform your life, but excess, deflated skin can remain a persistent challenge. A body lift procedure offers a comprehensive surgical solution to remove redundant skin and reshape body contours after significant weight reduction.

Comprehensive Body Contouring Approach

Body lift surgery is designed to improve the overall shape of your trunk by addressing multiple areas simultaneously, including:

• Abdomen
• Outer thighs
• Back
• Buttocks

Surgical Technique

Dr. Hustak performs a comprehensive body lift procedure through a strategic incision that extends low across the abdomen, around the buttocks, and across the lower back. This technique, often called a belt lipectomy, allows for comprehensive tissue removal and body reshaping.

Procedure Details

• Duration: 4-6 hours
• Anesthesia: General anesthesia
• Recovery: 1-2 night hospital stay
• Post-operative restrictions: No heavy lifting for 4-6 weeks
• Typical return to work: After two weeks

Holistic Body Transformation

Beyond removing excess skin, Dr. Hustak often combines body lift with additional procedures to provide a comprehensive transformation, including:

• Monsplasty
• Labiaplasty
• Buttocks enhancement
• Liposuction

Ideal Candidates

Body lift surgery is ideal for individuals who have:

• Experienced significant weight loss
• Excess, loose skin unresponsive to diet and exercise
• Stable weight for at least 6 months
• Good overall health
