Body Lift with Body Contouring
Serving Kansas City & Lee's Summit, Missouri
A body lift is a personalized set of body contouring procedures. A tummy tuck removes the excess skin and fat that has been stretched due to diet and exercise or bariatric surgery. The skin may lose its elasticity and will not be able to reduce in size and conform to the shape of your new post-weight loss body. The common areas of sagging skin after major weight loss are the:
- Face
- Neck
- Upper arms
- Breasts
- Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Thighs
These areas of excess skin create an irregular and misshapen appearance and body image. Kansas City Plastic Surgeon Dr. Chhatre provides many body contouring procedures to design a personalized body lift for your needs. The body contouring procedures Dr. Chhatre specializes in are:
- Liposuction
- Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty)
- Thigh lift
- Arm lift
- Buttock lift
- Breast lift
- Breast reduction
- Gynecomastia
Candidates for a Body Lift
Anyone who has undergone massive weight loss or is at their most advantageous weight loss goal and has healthy self-esteem is a good candidate for a body lift. Dr. Chhatre will help you through the body lift procedure and explain each procedure you may need in a personal body lift consultation. You may not need every body contouring surgery available. Dr. Chhatre will know which procedures will help you gain the optimal results.
The body contouring procedures involved in a body lift will be done in stages because a body lift combines many procedures and your body will need time to recover. Many of these procedures result in surgical scars, which will be placed to make them appear least visible. Many patients accept these scars because the overall results of the body lift help them live happier, healthier lives. Wearing a swimming suit or shorts with confidence produces such joy that any scars seem insignificant.
