Lower Body Lift in Seattle, WA

Significant weight loss, pregnancy or natural aging can result in skin losing its elasticity, causing it to sag. A lower back lift surgery can help patients achieve tighter skin all the way around the lower body, the abdomen, gluteal area and thighs, creating a more youthful appearance and helping you regain confidence in your body.

At the Center for Weight Loss Surgery, we perform the lower body lift as an outpatient surgery.

What Is a Lower Body Lift? 

Body lifts address skin laxity around a person’s torso that may result from the loss of skin elasticity. Getting a lower body lift is an effective way to combat the following issues and restore tighter skin and a sculpted appearance:

  • Loose, sagging skin in the area extending from the waist to the upper thighs
  • Sagging skin in the abdomen, thighs and gluteal area
  • Skin rashes
  • Aesthetic concerns
  • Mobility, discomfort and hygiene issues
  • Lost skin elasticity
  • Body unable to shrink back even if you lose weight, despite working out
  • Lack of results from diet and exercise alone

Our Lower Body Lift Surgical Process

The lower body lift includes tightening and sculpting the abdomen, thighs, hips and gluteal area. We approach the lower body lift by:

  1. Removing excess fat and skin from the buttock, outer thigh and the abdomen.
  2. Liposuction of affected areas as needed to restore contour and improve definition.
  3. Tightening the skin all around the lower trunk (i.e., full lower body or 360-degree lift) with an abdominoplasty for the abdomen, a gluteal lift for the buttocks and a lateral thigh lift for the outer thighs.
  4. Address other loose areas: Loose skin areas in other areas are addressed separately. For example, the upper body, arms or breasts will be addressed in an upper body lift, arm lift or beast lift after healing from the lower body lift.

Recovery

Most patients are mobile within the first few hours and can recover safely at home. With advanced pain management techniques, most patients find the discomfort from the surgery is manageable with oral pain medicines and can: 

  • Go out within a few days.
  • Return to non-strenous work within 2-3 weeks.
  • Return to normal physical activity within 6-8 weeks. 

Scars tend to fade with time and reach their final appearance a year or 18 months after surgery, and will be largely unnoticeable, as they can be hidden by clothing and swimsuits. Results of a full lower body lift can be observed almost immediately and improve over the following weeks to months as swelling subsides.
