A body lift is a culmination procedure, best saved for the end of a weight loss journey. We tell our patients to lose weight first, and then to see us about body contouring and skin removal. Ideally, a patient should be close to their target weight and stabilized. The ability to maintain a healthy weight is essential to long-lasting results from your procedure.
A body lift is an extensive surgical procedure and patients should be in good overall health. If you have medical conditions, like diabetes or high blood pressure, you’ll need to work with your doctor to control and regulate these conditions before surgery is a possibility.
