Body Lift Surgery
Body lift surgery is a mix of several surgical treatments that are intended to be performed based on the patient's needs. It treats skin laxity as well as excess fat in the belly, waist, hips, outer thighs, and buttocks, as well as the arms, chest, and face. Body lift surgery is more than just aesthetic surgery, especially for individuals who have lost a lot of weight. It is part of the "New me" strategy, an endorsement and reinforcement of the concluding chapter in a long journey of self-improvement. A moment of 'crowning glory' after taking big risks, enduring major disappointments, and eventually reaching a physique that was once thought to be merely a dream.

Procedure and Recovery Time

Step 2 - The incisionThe next step is to make the necessary incision depending on the procedure that is being performed.
Step 3 - InfiltrationTo limit blood loss and soften the fat for smooth extraction, the surgeon will inject a very diluted anesthetic solution into the indicated location. The amount of fluid infiltrated is determined by the quality and quantity of fat, with the remaining region infiltrated with less fluid.
Step 4 - Fat AspirationTo remove the fat cells, a tiny cannula is inserted beneath the skin and moved back and forth. Liposuction can be performed using a variety of technologies, which are detailed in the liposuction section. The goal is to get rid of any remaining fat after losing weight.
