Lower Body Lift Plastic Surgery After Weight Loss

Sagging skin below the waistline may occur because of weight fluctuation, dramatic weight loss, and natural aging. Lower body lift procedures are meant to sculpt and tighten the back of thighs, buttocks, inner thighs, outer thighs, abdomen, and hips. Aesthetically displeasing loose skin which causes mobility restrictions is removed.

Lower body lift is appropriate for people that are near their ideal weight. The procedure may follow or precede an upper body lift procedure. Thousands of patients undergo lower body lift surgery successfully every year with satisfactory results.

Board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Kristi Hustak provides lower body lift surgery to patients in Houston, Texas, and surrounding locations.

Advantages of a Lower Body Lift

Performing a Lower Body Lift Procedure

Complete lower body lift plastic surgery procedure will treat abdomen, buttocks, waist, thighs, and hips in a single procedure. It is usually part of mommy makeover. The pattern and length of incisions will depend on the extent of excess skin removed and where the skin was located.

This is how a typical lower body lift cosmetic surgery procedure is performed:

First option is to combine abdominal contouring with lower body lift. This is also known as an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck. The second option is to combine the procedure with an inner thigh lift. The second option is for people that don’t require or have already had an abdominoplasty.

Appearance of Lower Body Lift Scars and Incisions

The incisions leave noticeable and permanent scarring around the lower trunk. The scar appears right above the pubic hair region and extends to the hip bones. The scar may gently curve upwards towards the buttock crease to meet the incision made on the other side.

Scar placement is generally determined by your clothing style to ensure it is easily hidden. Female cosmetic surgeon Dr. Kristi Hustak receives patients from Houston, Texas, and nearby areas for lower body lift surgery.
