Understanding Body Lift Surgery

A body lift surgery, also known as a belt lipectomy, is a comprehensive procedure designed to address loose skin and tissue on the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. Typically performed after significant weight loss, this surgery removes excess skin and reshapes underlying tissues to improve overall body contour.

Consultation and Planning

During the initial consultation, Dr. Khattab conducts a comprehensive medical evaluation. This includes a detailed discussion of medical history, physical examination, and exploration of individual cosmetic goals to determine the most appropriate surgical approach.

Surgical Technique

The procedure involves creating belt-like incisions around the lower body, allowing access to remove excess skin and reshape underlying tissues. Multiple areas can be addressed simultaneously, providing comprehensive body contouring.
