Helping you finalize the metamorphesis that has come with your weight loss

Welcome to our body lift information page. Here we will provide information on the body lift procedure provided by Dr. Golger that removes the excess skin that remains after weight loss.

Removing Excess To Reveal The New You

A total body lift is often the terminology used to describe a single procedure used by a plastic surgeon to remove excess skin after extreme weight loss by a patient. However, it can also be used to describe a culmination of several different procedures used at different points around the body to excise that same loose sagging skin.

Your skin is naturally pliable and for those who have under, or have lost under, 50lbs, they may notice little to no sagging or excess skin. However it’s those patients who have lost a large amount of weight, very quickly, such as those who have undergone bariatric surgery that will notice the greatest amount of loose skin. For some patients the new sagging skin can be as emotionally draining as when they were originally overweight making the body lift a necessary step in the transformation process. Still for others it’s just the next step to achieve the end results that they have worked so hard to achieve.

What procedures fall under a body lift:

While you will need to schedule a consultation with Dr. Golger to discuss which body lift procedures are right for you, we wanted to include them here with a bit of information on each.

Arm Lift / Brachioplasty

Often referred to as the “bat wings surgery”, an arm lift removes the excess “dangling” skin that is present after weight loss. The skin that is removed is typically the arm skin that goes from the arm pit to the elbow. Removal helps to restore the natural contour to the patients arm.

Breast Lift / Mastopexy

Some women choose to not only have the lift, but a lift that is a reconstruction with an augmentation utilizing implants to restore the size and shape of the breasts. For men excess skin present in obese men and men with gynecomastia is excised.

Stomach lift / Abdominoplasty / Belt Lipectomy

Typically the procedure(s) most often associated with a total body lift. These lifts removes the hanging sagging skin of the stomach and flanks.

Lower Body Lift

This lift includes the buttocks and thighs and can include an inner thigh lift.
