With the increase in bariatric surgery and extreme weight loss, full body lift surgery is the optimal solution to address excess loose and weighted skin that exists due to massive weight loss, pregnancy, or damage caused by age and the sun.
A body lift, also called a belt lipectomy, lifts, and firms the skin of the thighs, buttocks, hips, groin, waist, and abdomen. Moreover, an abdominoplasty is different from a body lift. Indeed, a tummy tuck is limited to getting rid of excess skin in the abdomen only, while a full body lift encompasses other parts of the body.

The objective of the Full Body Lift surgery
Certain non-surgical treatments and sports activities cannot eliminate sagging skin resulting from weight fluctuations, sun damage, pregnancy, and aging. However, body lift allows you to have firmer and younger-looking skin.
What a Full body lift cannot do is remove large deposits of fat. Your weight should be stabilized at or near your ideal weight before considering a belt lipectomy. In cases where there are small local fat deposits, but skin elasticity is low, the surgeon may recommend a combination of liposuction and 360 body lift.
What are the benefits of body contouring in Istanbul Turkey?
Body contouring or body lift after massive weight loss are procedures performed by plastic surgeons to remove and/or shrink excess skin. The intervention is indicated for people who suffer from relaxation and/or an excess of soft tissues with a loss of regular morphology of the body. In effect, body contouring improves the shape and tone of underlying tissues and removes excess fat and skin, reducing smoother body contours and a normal appearance.
More generally, the Full body lift is recommended in case of a lack of elasticity of the skin, which does not allow finding an aesthetically acceptable body shape with non-surgical methods. The intervention is not intended to reduce weight, but rather to modify the contour of the body with an overall improvement in the silhouette.
Make an appointment with the best doctors in Turkey
Your decision to undergo this body contouring procedure should be carefully considered in discussion with a highly qualified cosmetic surgeon. He will give you more details about the surgery like the location of incisions, complications, and other detailed information about the recovery period. Make sure that you get the best treatment and a perfect result after considering all the appropriate possibilities by the surgeon.
A belt lipectomy is performed with the best surgeons in Istanbul, Turkey. The process of the intervention involves making an incision around the entire circumference of the body. The location of the incisions varies among people who decide to have this procedure.
To perform a body lift, an anesthetic is used to remove excess skin between the two slits. Then the incisions are stitched up, and you have to stay overnight in the hospital or clinic in Istanbul, Izmir, Antalya, or Ankara in Turkey.
What should be done before a belt lipectomy in Istanbul?
The first visit to a specialist in Istanbul, Turkey, educates patients about all the potential risks and complications of a 360 body lift. An overall assessment of the body structure and surgical planning is carried out. The possibility of surgical intervention is assessed according to many parameters (age of the patient, BMI, quality and texture of the skin coat, presence of laxity and muscle weakness, etc.). If the patient is fit to undergo the body contouring surgery, he is notified of the possible cosmetic results that can be achieved.
During the first visit, routine preoperative examinations will be prescribed to check the good state of health.
