Following a lower body lift, you'll likely notice a significant reduction in loose, sagging skin around your midsection, buttocks, and upper legs. This procedure often results in more defined body contours and smoother, tighter skin across the abdomen, flanks, lower back, buttocks, and thighs. Additionally, the lift can relieve chafing and other discomforts commonly experienced after substantial weight loss. Many patients find they can engage in physical activities more comfortably post-surgery, as excess soft tissues no longer impede movement and athletic wear fits more appropriately. The boost in confidence from these physical improvements frequently encourages patients to enjoy outdoor activities and social engagements more readily.
Recovering from a Body Lift Surgery at Pacific Sound Plastic Surgery in Bellevue, which proudly serves the Seattle community, is a crucial phase in your transformative journey, expertly overseen by Dr. Kristopher M. Day. Post-surgery recovery is a time of healing and gradual reawakening of your body’s contours. Initially, rest is essential, with activities limited to promote optimal healing. You’ll receive comprehensive instructions on wound care, pain management, and guidance on when to safely resume daily activities. Swelling and discomfort are common but manageable with medications and proper care. Dr. Day provides continuous support and follow-up consultations to monitor your progress and ensure your recovery aligns with the goals of your surgery.

Body lift surgery is a comprehensive procedure that removes excess skin and fat from various parts of the body, typically following significant weight loss. It commonly targets areas like the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, and hips, aiming to improve overall body contour and tone.
Ideal candidates are individuals who have undergone massive weight loss resulting in excess, sagging skin that can’t be addressed through exercise alone. Candidates should be in good overall health, have stable weight, and realistic expectations about the results.
A body lift may include an abdominal lift (tummy tuck), thigh lift, and buttock lift. Incisions are made in strategic areas to remove excess skin and fat, and then the remaining skin is lifted and tightened.
Recovery typically involves several weeks of downtime, with swelling and discomfort. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities for a period specified by Dr. Day and to follow post-operative care instructions closely.
As with any major surgery, risks include infection, bleeding, scarring, and complications related to anesthesia. Dr. Day will discuss specific risks, such as fluid accumulation or changes in skin sensation, during your consultation.
Results from a body lift are generally long-lasting, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. However, natural aging will continue to affect body contours over time.
Scarring is inevitable, but Dr. Day is skilled in placing incisions strategically to minimize visible scarring. Over time, these scars typically fade and become less noticeable.
The cost varies depending on the extent of the procedure and specific areas treated. A detailed quote will be provided during your consultation.
Yes, we offer various financing options to help manage the cost of the surgery.
