Lower Body Lift
A lower body lift, sometimes known as a belt lipectomy, is a surgical procedure that reshapes the patient’s abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks. You might be a candidate for this surgical procedure if you have experienced significant weight loss and are now at your desired weight but experiencing loose and overhanging skin. This is a major operation requiring several hours of general anesthesia and possibly an overnight hospital stay. The recovery period will last weeks and your activities may be restricted for up to two months. Long, permanent scars of an unpredictable nature are the trade-off for skin tightening.
Dr. Chiasson will evaluate you carefully and make recommendations based on your unique situation. This is considered cosmetic surgery and will not be covered by your insurance.
