Body Lift Procedure
Body lift procedure is the ideal option for removing the sagginess of the skin caused by weight loss and aging factors. The natural suppleness of your skin can be retained through this cosmetic surgery which helps in maintaining a youthful appearance. Through body lift plastic surgery it is possible to retain the body contour of almost all body areas such as thighs, arms, chest, breasts, waist, back, tummy, hips and knees.
Variety of Methods to Enhance Your Appearance
Body lift procedures include central body lift, also known as Belt Lipectomy, and lower body lift. By using central body lift procedure additional skin and fat deposits from body areas such as buttocks, hips, back, outer thighs and belly can be effectively eliminated. The lower body lift procedure enables to reshape thighs and buttocks by removing supplementary skin and fat accumulations.
Body lift can be performed in combination with other body contouring procedures including tummy tuck, breast lift, arm lift, liposuction and more. If required, skin grafting can be carried out on particular body areas. These different procedures eliminate the extra skin and fat along with the stretch marks in your body so as to enhance your appearance.
Surgical Procedure Carried Out in Different Phases
Body lift procedure is suitable for those individuals who have experienced considerable weight loss and have flabby skin in particular body areas. The entire procedure is carried out under general anesthesia. The time required for the procedure is about five to seven hours. This might change according to the different cosmetic procedures. Body lift surgery is carried out in three phases; in the first phase additional skin from the belly area is removed and the abdominal muscles are tightened. In the second phase incisions are made on the back and the buttocks for removing extra skin and fat. In the last phase the removal of excess skin from the arm portion is carried out. Incisions are closed with stitches.
The surgery might have side effects such as infection, pain, bleeding, redness and swelling. Patients can usually return to their normal activities in around four to five weeks. Removal of stitches is not required as they are dissolvable.
If you are planning for a body lift procedure, it is important to avail of the services of an expert physician who understands your needs and can provide exceptional body contouring results.

Testimonials
Like many others, I had heard about the groundbreaking SmartLipo treatment and was considering getting some work done on my flabby upper arms. However, I was clueless as I didn’t know about any doctors who offered SmartLipo in my area – New York City. My friend told me about the SmartLipo™ Plastic Surgeon Directory and I decided to give it a try. I must say that I am grateful to the brilliant minds behind this directory for putting me in contact with Dr. Christopher T. Chia of Park Avenue Smart Lipo™.
Another thing, if I had any worries at all about the procedure, all of them were quelled because of the wealth of information that was available on the site and which helped me make up my mind. About the plastic surgeon - he seemed to work a kind of magic with his hands. He not only slimmed down my arms with SmartLipo but also gave them a smooth, beautiful shape.
