A body lift includes any combination of procedures that remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen, hips, inner or outer thighs, and buttocks while improving the contour of the underlying tissue. Also includes tightening of the abdominal muscles. This procedure is ideal for those who have poor tissue elasticity caused by aging, significant fluctuations in weight, pregnancy, or genetic factors resulting in sagging of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs.

Considerations
Some procedures are frequently covered by insurance plans if considered medically necessary.
Ideal candidates are close to their ideal, maintainable weight for their body type and size, committed to a healthy lifestyle, and have realistic goals for what surgery can accomplish.
