Body lift vs lower body lift

John P. Stratis, MD answers: Is a lower body lift the same thing as a body lift?

What is the difference between a body lift and a lower body lift?  I see some doctors say body lift and others call it a lower body lift and I just don't understand how the actual surgeries are different...they seem like the same thing to me.

These terms are most often used interchangably. Strictly speaking the lower body lift will involve a tummy tuck laterl thigh and buttock lift all at one time.  The "body lift" may include the inner thigh lift, breast lift, upper back lift and arm lift.
