Hello Interloper!

The ideal candidate for a lower body lift procedure is an individual who has obvious saggy skin throughout the stomach, thigh, hip and buttock area. This looseness may be the result of normal ageing, of many pregnancies, or of huge weight loss. Areas affected by this drooping skin could include the stomach, back, thighs and buttock. Liposuction and abdominoplasty (“tummy tuck”) can be performed alongside a lower body lift to improve the overall result.
You should be aware that a lower bodylift could affect a huge area of your body. As well as the lengthy recovery time, the long visible scars are a major drawback. However, in the hands of a skilled surgeon, the results from this operation can dramatically improve the appearance of droopy buttocks and sagging thighs.
It is very important for you to describe exactly how you see your body looking after the lift with an experienced surgeon who can perform both liposuction and buttock implants. They should be able to assess you properly and recommend the most appropriate procedure, or combination of procedures, for you.
How long the effects of this operation will last is difficult to predict, and depend upon you keeping your weight at a consistent level. If you do gain lots of weight, your skin will stretch following the procedure and undo all the surgeon’s good work. Your surgeon will discuss how long he expects the results to stay looking smoother and firmer based on their own experience and the experience of their colleagues.
