Answer: Is body lift surgery too big surgery for someone over 70 years old? Thank you for your query. If you are in otherwise good health, body lifts can be done at your age with acceptable risks, but in multiple sessions. I do skin excisions and contouring of the anterior part of the stomach in the first setting, for instance, and do the back a few weeks later. I do not combine procedures to keep the recovery safe and comfortable. Please find an experienced Board certified Plastic surgeon who can examine you and help you with all your concerns. All the best!

Answer: Is there an age limit for surgery If you are in good health and a good candidate for the procedure you still can be considered for a body lift. Your board certified plastic surgeon may require medical clearance or certain preoperative tests or labs to ensure you are a good candidate for the procedure. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.
