Lower Body Lift Surgery in San Antonio, TX

A lower body lift in San Antonio, TX, commonly known as a circumferential tummy tuck, is a comprehensive surgical procedure designed to enhance and reshape the lower body's contours. 

Lower body lift surgery targets the removal of excess skin and fat from areas such as the abdomen, lower back, outer thighs, and buttocks, making it particularly appealing for individuals who have undergone significant weight loss and are dealing with loose skin.

This procedure is ideal for those seeking to address sagging skin, persistent fat deposits, or discomfort caused by excess tissue. 

By tightening the underlying structures and excising surplus skin, a lower body lift can help achieve a firmer and more youthful silhouette. 

Depending on the needs of the patient, the surgery may be conducted in one session or divided into two stages to ensure optimal outcomes.

Following a lower body lift, patients typically experience a recovery period of about 1 to 3 weeks. During this time, some swelling and discomfort are normal, and patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting and intense activities. The results of the surgery generally become visible after 12 to 18 months as the body heals and settles into its new shape.
