360 Body Lift

Significant weight loss resulting from exercise, diet, or weight-loss surgery can be the first step in a renewed bodily appearance. Still, it can also leave behind extra skin that may have lost its elasticity. With a combination of liposuction and skin excision, a 360 body lift can surgically restore your body to a shape that looks and feels fantastic.

Shaping Your Dream Body

When you lose weight, your skin may not be able to bounce back to its original form immediately, and you’ll have some excess skin folds. This problem can be solved by the 360 body lift, a procedure that changes the shape of your abdominal, buttock, and thigh areas. Here at MG Plastic Surgery in Scottsdale, AZ, we can help you determine if a 360 body lift is the right option for you.

What Is the 360 Body Lift?

Most patients who undergo the circumferential 360 body lift have lost a lot of weight and are now struggling with loose skin around their abdominal, buttock, and leg area. This can be very distressing and undermine weight loss benefits, so surgical intervention is critical.

Dr. Gigena will personalize your surgery to your situation, so you can benefit from the exact adjustments you need. In general, we will perform a tummy tuck, a buttock lift, and a thigh lift as part of the procedure, but this will depend on your circumstances.

Tummy Tuck

It is difficult to target specific areas for weight loss, so small pockets of fat may be very hard to lose with the traditional methods of diet and exercise. If you have excess fat tissue in your stomach area, loose skin due to weight loss, or protruding abdominal muscles, a tummy tuck will address all of these issues. Your doctor will reshape your abdomen by removing unwanted tissue and tightening the abs.

Buttock Lift

A similar method can be applied to the buttock area. Your skin may be sagging, and there could be excess folds you would like to get rid of. Dr. Gigena can remove skin and fat in this area and then reposition the remaining skin tissue over the muscle. As a result, your buttock area will look more sculpted and slimmer, removing unwanted skin folds.

Thigh Lift

In addition to the issues in your tummy and buttock area, you may also have excess tissue on your thighs. A thigh lift flattens the skin and removes folds and body fat. After this procedure, you can benefit from a smoother, more toned appearance to your thighs, which you will have to maintain with a good diet and exercise routine over the long term.

Meet Your Doctor

Significant weight loss can be a major undertaking for many people, and the best way to experience the journey to your target weight and body composition is with a skilled and compassionate professional by your side. Dr. Manuel Gigena brings a wealth of knowledge in cosmetic enhancements and a gentle bedside manner to help you achieve a body you love.

How It Works

When you come to us with concerns about your body’s appearance, we will evaluate your current health status to determine whether you’re a good candidate for a circumferential body lift. If you have a very high BMI, we may suggest you reduce this through diet and exercise first, as this procedure is not designed as a weight-loss program.

However, if you’re close to your target weight but have loose skin or stubborn fat pockets, you might be a great candidate. At your initial consultation, Dr. Gigena will discuss what you’d like to achieve and what methods you have tried before. He can then decide which of the above procedures is suitable and whether all three will be necessary.

Recovery Time

You should rest for several weeks after your appointment, which means that you’ll need to take time off work, find someone who can drive you to necessary appointments, and avoid exercise for the time being. After around six weeks, you will see the final results of your surgery, and you should be back to normal at that point.

Because fat and skin tissue don’t grow back in adults, the procedure is considered permanent. You will only need to do one circumferential body lift in your life. However, to maintain optimal results, you should build up healthy lifestyle habits, such as eating a diet low in processed foods and doing gentle exercise several times a week.

Achieve Your Perfect Shape Now

The 360 body lift is a great option for people looking to achieve their perfect shape after losing weight. Although it’s a surgical procedure, the effects are permanent, so you’ll benefit from it for the rest of your life. At MG Plastic Surgery in Scottsdale, AZ, we can determine whether this is the best way forward for you. Contact us today to schedule your consultation.
