I have gained and lost weight over the years. Lost over 100lbs after high school, gained some of it bck after having two kids 15 months apart. I am also interested in breast lift and fat transfer to breast. I am losing weight but not as fast as when i was younger, there is loose skin and specific areas where fat deposits are stubborn, even when I was smaller. Will a body lift help with further weight loss while contouring my body, or should i continue to lose weight and have the body lift later?

Answer: Surgery timing For the best results you should wait to have surgery until you have reached your goal weight and are able to maintain it which will give your surgeon the opportunity to maximize your results. Gaining or losing significant weight after your surgery can impact your results. Once you have reached your goal you can consider a tummy tuck with liposuction for contouring and a breast lift. It appears you may be a candidate for a breast lift with autoaugmentation which uses your current breast tissue to provide more upper pole fullness.

Answer: Body lift Thank you for the question. Body and breast lift are transformative surgeries and you should have them after your weight loss is complete, and you have maintained your goal weight for several months.
