A single operation that removes loose skin around the entire lower body, the abdomen, hips, outer thighs, and buttocks, through an incision that circles the waist like a belt. The definitive contouring procedure after massive weight loss, with a recovery to match.
One procedure, often the centerpiece of a staged plan
2 to 3 weeks before desk work, 6 to 8 before exercise, drains for the first week or two, compression for 6 weeks
People who have lost a large amount of weight, typically 75 pounds or more, and have loose skin around the whole lower body, at a stable weight for at least 6 months and in good health
Body Lift generally runs $12,000–$25,000 per procedure, and each Tulsa clinic sets its own price. The biggest variables are the provider's experience level and the specific device or product used. Newer technology and senior injectors price at the upper end. Pricing is quoted in US dollars (USD). Request a consultation from any of our listed Tulsa clinics for a personalized quote.
Initial results in 2–4 weeks, with full results developing over 3 months as collagen builds. Tulsa providers typically schedule follow-ups to track progress.
Results vary by patient, but most Tulsa providers report 6–18 months of sustained benefit from a full Body Lift series.
A tummy tuck treats the front of the abdomen. A lower body lift continues the incision all the way around the waist, so it also lifts the outer thighs and buttocks and removes loose skin at the hips and back. It is chosen when weight loss has left laxity all the way around, which is typical after very large losses, and a tummy tuck alone would leave the sides and back untreated.
It is the most demanding recovery in body contouring. Expect drains for one to two weeks, a compression garment for about six weeks, help at home for the first week, walking slightly bent for the first days, desk work at two to three weeks, and exercise at six to eight. Swelling settles over several months. Surgeons often stage it with arm, breast, or thigh procedures months apart.
It circles the body at the level of the waist, positioned to sit under underwear or a swimsuit line. It is long, it fades over one to two years, and patients who have lost a great deal of weight almost universally consider it a fair exchange for removing the skin. Ask to see healed scars at one year.
Typically $12,000 to $25,000 including surgeon, anesthesia, facility, and an overnight stay, varying widely with city and extent. The abdominal portion is occasionally covered when the overhang causes documented medical problems; the rest is cosmetic. Financing and staging are common conversations.
