Total Body Lift

A total body lift is sometimes referred to as a circumferential body lift or an upper and lower body lift. It is a major operation involving the removal of areas of excess skin and soft tissue, particularly of the abdomen and lower back areas.

It may involve lifting the whole abdominal skin, repositioning of the belly button and tightening of the abdominal muscles and also lifting of the buttock skin and repositioning.

A total body lift procedure can cover numerous individual procedures such as liposuction, thigh lifts, buttock lifts, arm lifts and tummy tucks as a whole operation.

Thigh Lift

A thigh lift is done to remove excess skin and fat around the upper thighs, in order to make them appear slimmer, firmer and to improve a sagging appearance.

The thigh lift procedure consists of making an oval incision in the upper thigh, removing the skin and stitching the remaining skin back together.

Buttock Lift

A buttock lift is a procedure that involves removing excess skin and tissue to tighten the skin around the buttocks. Buttock lifts are commonly performed along with other surgical procedures, such as a thigh lift or liposuction, although this is not necessary and the procedure may also be performed effectively on its own.

Arm Lifts

An arm lift or brachioplasty is an operation designed to rejuvenate the upper arms. .

The operation removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms. Some procedures require that liposuction be performed on the patient to rid the upper arm region of excess fat deposits, while other procedures are more extensive, requiring the removal of the excess skin.

Liposuction

Liposuction surgery removes unwanted fat deposits from parts of the body, usually from the hips, stomach, thighs, buttocks, back, arms, knees and ankles and other areas.

Liposuction is carried out through a metal tube (known as a cannula) which is inserted through small incisions in the skin and sucks out the fat deposits with a vacuum pump.

Fat Transfer

Autologous fat transfer is designed to remove the fat from one area of the body, usually the abdomen, and transfer it to an area that requires reshaping in order to achieve better body shape and contour, usually the breast or face. It is also know as fat grafting or fat injections

The fat cells taken from one part of your own body are injected back into the desired area such as the cheeks, lips or chin replenishing the skins collagen layer, smoothing lines and wrinkles and plumping out the treated area.

Tummy Tuck

Abdominoplasty or ‘tummy tuck’ surgery is an operation designed to rejuvenate the abdominal area.

The operation removes excess tissue from the abdominal area and the type of abdominoplasty needs to be tailored to the individual. Various types of tummy tuck procedures are available and may be combined with liposuction. It may involve lifting the whole abdominal skin, repositioning of the belly button and tightening of the abdominal muscles.
