What Is a Body Lift?
A body lift, or belt lipectomy, is a post-weight loss procedure that contours the entire circumference of the waistline and lifts the thighs and buttocks in one procedure. With unwanted skin removed, Dr. Morales’ body lift patients experience increased mobility, comfort, and confidence.

What Can a Body Lift Do?
Eliminate Excess Skin
After massive weight loss, your skin cannot completely bounce back to where it once was, and individuals are often left with a significant amount of excess skin. Body lift surgery eliminates loose skin from the lower half of your body to help you achieve the appearance you worked so hard for.
Reduce Stretch Marks
Many people are left with visible stretch marks after massive weight loss. Stretch marks can be frustrating since there's no way to remove them naturally. With body lift surgery, scars and stretch marks on the removed skin are eliminated to provide you with a smooth skin appearance.
Repair Damaged Muscles
Extreme weight gain can stretch and damage your abdominal muscles, which often results in the outward bulging of the stomach that does not go away with exercise and weight loss. A body lift procedure works to repair and tighten loose or separated muscles to create a smooth, flat abdominal appearance.

Preparation
& Anesthesia
Body lift surgery is performed as an inpatient procedure with an overnight stay recommended in a selected hospital in Dallas. The procedure usually takes about four to five hours to complete, during which general anesthesia is used.
An incision is made circumferentially around the body, beginning at the lower abdomen and going around the lower back just above the buttocks. Abdominoplasty techniques will be performed first, which include removing excess fat, tightening the abdominal muscles, and relocating the navel to its anatomically correct position. Excess skin is removed from the posterior side of the body, which will improve the buttocks and thighs.
