does a lower body lift include a tummy tuck?



Recommended Posts

If anyone can answer this it would be very helpful. I'm trying to calculate how much money I'll need to save after having my VSG.

I think a lower body lift is like a combo of a: Tummy Tuck, butt lift , and thigh lift. They cut you all the way around and it lifts and tightens everything.

I believe when I finish losing weight, I will need a complete body-off restoration!! (Google it if you don't know what it is) LOL!

I had this procedure 10 plus years ago....(Since I have lost 53 pounds, my hour glass figure is starting to re-emerge :D )

Deb

Circumferential abdominoplasty An circumferential abdominoplasty is an extended abdominoplasty plus a buttock lift. The resulting scar runs all the way around the body, and the operation is also called a Belt Lipectomy or Body Lift. This operation is most appropriate for patients who have undergone massive weight loss.

yep it does -- I just got a Tummy Tuck and breast lift/augmentation -- down here in Paraguay they don't do the lower body lift -- just the tt and breast stuff -- thighs and butt are separate -- I think I'll be doing that in about 6 months. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
