Body lifts are an ideal procedure for those who have lost massive amounts of weight due to weight reduction surgery.
Dr. Maas continues to offer Avéli treatment for cellulite, as well as select liposuction procedures performed in conjunction with facial fat transfer surgeries. For additional surgical body procedures, patients may be referred to trusted specialists and colleagues. Please contact our office for more information or for a list of recommended providers.
A lower body lift involves a dramatic re-sculpting of the buttocks, hips, and abdomen, and is commonly performed on post-bariatric patients with an excessive amount of skin in a specific area. Typically, these people have a good amount of excess skin around their arms, stomach, hip, and buttocks, which can lead to skin ulcerations, embarrassing body odor, and other issues.
Patients will stay in the hospital for a few days and will receive temporary drains to clear out a build-up of fluids. Compared to a traditional tummy tuck, a body lift will require more recovery time, but the long-term health benefits make it an optimal procedure for those who have experienced a large amount of weight loss.
Dr. Maas has an extensive network of plastic surgeons specializing in body lift procedures in Northern and Southern California. For a referral to a surgeon in your area, please contact us today.
