What is Body Lift?

A body lift—often referred to as a lower body lift—is a comprehensive surgical procedure designed to reshape and tighten the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and buttocks. It’s especially ideal for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss and are now left with loose, sagging skin that no amount of diet or exercise can address.

By removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissues, a body lift helps create a firmer, smoother, and more sculpted lower body contour. The results are not only physical, but also deeply personal—restoring your confidence, enhancing clothing fit, and helping you feel more at home in your own skin.

At our practice, Dr. Victoria Aimé customizes each body lift procedure to align with your unique goals, anatomy, and post-weight loss journey. We are here to help you complete the transformation you’ve worked so hard for—with safety, precision, and artistry.

Preparing for Body Lift

The journey to your lower body lift begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this meeting, Dr. Aimé will discuss your goals, review your medical history, and perform a physical evaluation to determine if the procedure is right for you. A lower body lift is a highly personalized surgery, and during your consultation, we will work with you to create a plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Once you decide to move forward, we’ll schedule a pre-operative appointment to prepare you for surgery. This may include ordering lab tests, such as blood work, to ensure you are in good health. Depending on your medical history, you might also need clearance from your primary care physician or specialists to confirm you are ready for surgery.

During the pre-op visit, we will provide detailed instructions about how to prepare, such as adjusting medications, stopping smoking, and arranging for someone to assist you during recovery. We’ll also review the surgical plan, answer any remaining questions, and ensure you feel fully informed and confident as you take this exciting step toward achieving your goals.

Body Lift Procedure

A lower body lift is a comprehensive procedure designed to reshape and tighten the midsection and lower body by removing excess skin and fat. During the surgery, incisions incisions are typically made around the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs. These incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring and allow for the removal of sagging skin and underlying fat.

The remaining skin is then tightened to create smoother, firmer contours, and in some cases, liposuction may be used to further refine the results. If needed, abdominal muscles can also be tightened during the procedure to enhance the overall shape and support of the midsection. The incisions are meticulously closed to promote optimal healing.

This procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and may require an overnight stay for monitoring.
