Hello Im 54yr white female 2yrs post Bariatric surgery. I had a ry gastric bypass. Ive lost 90lbs. My max weight was 215lbs and my current weight is 125lbs. I am 5 feet tall. I really want a 360 body lift , arm lift, breast lift with implants and butt implants. Im hoping to find a surgeon to do my bodylift and hopefully butt implants togther.
Answer: Pace yourself! Congratulations on your weight loss! Now to answer your question, can a surgeon do it all at once safely with decent results? Possibly. Should they? Probably not. I’d recommend breaking it down into 2-3 separate procedures. No one wants to deal with the down time multiple times but sometimes that’s necessary to avoid having less than optimal results. It looks like you have a lot of excess skin to remove. You’re already going to be under anesthesia for an excessive amount of time if you decide to lift all of the areas needed. Plus for optimal results you will want to already have the excess skin removed to see what size implants you’ll want to go with for buttocks. For Butt implants, you’ll also need to be laying on your tummy for a while, that is not conducive to the arms, breast or abdomen procedures having optimal results. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon to reach your goals with minimal complications and optimal timing for the results you desire. We would love to see you here at Smith Plastic Surgery when you are ready.

Answer: Can you get butt implants at the same time as 360 bodylift? The lower body lift is a surgery that involves removal of loose skin by way of an incision that goes around the waist and helps tighten the abdomen, sides, lower back, outer thighs, and butt. The lower body lift will create a flat abdomen along with an improved waist and an improved lower back. At the same time, the buttock can be lifted and the outer thighs can be improved. You may also need a TT to take care of the skin and abdominal wall laxity in the front of the body. However, some patients may have loose skin on the back, buttocks, or lateral (outer) thighs as well. This is referred to as a posterior lower body lift. The TT and the posterior lower body lift performed at the same time is a lower body lift.

Answer: Combination of procedures Dear Wannabesexy2, I understand your concern. It is best however that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine whether you can have several aesthetic surgeries in one session, as this would depend on various factors including but not limited to your general health condition, the type of anesthesia that will be used, and the type of surgeries that will be performed among others.

Answer: Body lift and buttock augmentation Thank you for your question. I routinely perform buttock augmentation with implants, fat transplantation to the buttocks, and body lift together. I believe this is the best combination to achieve the most attractive buttock. My practice is uniquely set up for this as I have an assistant surgeon that works with me on a regular basis and we keep patients in our facility overnight. Best wishes to you.

Answer: 360 lower body lift and buttock implants combo? Allow me to answer your question as best i can based upon your photos. However, please keep in mind that an in-person, or at least a virtual, consultation with physical exam is first necessary before any legitimate evaluation or final surgical recommendations can be made. I typically would perform both procedures together for several reasons. One, significant increase risk of wound healing complications if done together. Two, a surgeon can be much more accurate in both procedures when doing them separately. I personally like to place the buttock implants first to recreate the buttock mound/projection/landmarks so that i can more accurately later place the incisions/scar for the 360 lower body lift 6+ months later. Keep in mind however that very few plastic surgeon truly specialize in intramuscular buttock implants and the first time around has the absolute best chance for aesthetic success. Revision for botch-jobs are not only very expensive but extremely challenging to achieve, at minimum, a reasonable aesthetic final outcome. Because of this, patients not infrequently have to fly long distances to have their surgery done by a board-certified plastic surgeon whom specializes in buttock implants. Glad to help.
