The Benefits of a Body Lift on Long Island

A body lift combines one or more of the following: a tummy tuck, buttock lift and lateral thigh lift. All together, these procedures are known as a "circumferential trunk lift," sometimes also called a "lower body lift." The purpose is to surgically remove excess skin and re-contour your torso, buttocks and upper legs to reveal the thinner figure you've worked so hard to achieve.

Many men and women on Long Island who have experienced major weight loss, either by diet alone, lap bands, or gastric bypass are delighted by their weight loss, but depressed by the hanging skin that remains. As we age, and when we are heavier, our skin loses elasticity and therefore doesn't contract when we lose weight. This can be very disappointing if excess skin ruins your new look. Also, excess skin may limit your ability to exercise comfortably, making it more difficult to maintain your weight and health.

If you are considering a body lift after bariatric surgery, you may also want to read about post-bariatric procedures. For patients who have undergone bariatric surgery, one of the most important decisions you will make is your choice of a plastic surgeon. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons expressly recommends to prospective post-bariatric surgery patients that you choose a qualified board certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in post-bariatric surgery. Because of the dimension of surgery involved in body contouring after massive weight loss, specific additional risks are involved. More than any other factor, your health and safety are paramount.
