Total Body Lift at One Setting

If you mean performing a "body lift" that includes the abdomen, buttocks, and outer thighs, there many plastic surgeons who will perform this surgery in one setting in most situations. However,if you are adding on the breasts, arms, back, and inner thighs on top of the other procedures, then there will far fewer surgeons willing to perform this amount of surgery in a single session. The issue is really safety which is the most important thing in any surgery but... more

Combined Procedures and Body Lift

Combining procedures requires that your surgeon, assistants, and his OR team have experience doing these cases. Most doctors who do have a dedicated interest in the care of weight loss patients.

You can find many qualified plastic surgeons doing body lift in one stage

The meaning of the body lift is different from surgeon to surgeon. The most accepted definition is combination of tummy tuck and buttock lift.This can be done in one stage and in less than 6 hours(may be longer in complicated cases ). Arm lift,breast lift and thigh lift are other procedures that can be done at the same time but not advised.

It depends on your definition of full body lift.

If you are referring to a body lift that includes the lower body only(abdomen, buttock and outer thighs), there are lots of plastic surgeons who do this procedure. However, if you are referring to a body lift that not involves the lower body lift but also, breast, arms, inner thighs, upper back, etc., you are definitely looking at a much smaller group of plastic surgeons. These folks do tend to operate in teams, tend to work in major academic medical centers, and are typically... more
