Lower Body Lift

Reshape Your Lower Body with Dr. Salvador Medina

After major weight loss, pregnancy, or aging, many people notice loose, sagging skin around the lower body. A lower body lift can help tighten this area, giving you a smoother, more contoured look. Dr. Salvador Medina specializes in lower body lift surgery to help you feel more confident about your shape.

What is a Lower Body Lift?

A lower body lift is a cosmetic surgery that removes excess skin and fat from the lower part of the body. This includes areas like the stomach, hips, thighs, and buttocks. The surgery tightens the skin, giving a more toned and firm appearance. It is a popular option for people who have lost a lot of weight or want to improve sagging skin from aging.

Benefits of a Lower Body Lift:

  • Smoother Body Shape: Removes sagging skin and tightens the lower body for a more contoured look.
  • Improved Confidence: Feel better about your appearance and fit into clothes more comfortably.
  • Long-Lasting Results: The effects can last for years if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.

How the Surgery Works:

During a lower body lift, Dr. Medina makes incisions along the lower body, usually around the hips, lower abdomen, and thighs. He removes extra skin and fat, then tightens the remaining skin for a smoother look. The incisions are placed carefully to minimize scarring and are usually hidden in natural body folds, like the waistband area.

Recovery:

Most patients can return to light activities in about 2-3 weeks. However, you will need to avoid strenuous activities or heavy lifting for about 6 weeks to ensure proper healing. Dr. Medina and his team will provide detailed instructions to help you recover smoothly and safely.

Who is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for a lower body lift if you have loose skin on your lower abdomen, hips, thighs, or buttocks and are in good overall health. The surgery is ideal for people who have lost significant weight or who have skin that has become loose due to aging.
