Is a Lower Body Lift the Same Thing As a Body Lift?

Asked By:

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.
