I can't seem to find the correct term for this procedure so I can do more research. It's the removal of love handles but when I search this ,all I see are pics of liposuction and it's results. Thanks and I hope it's not a silly question

Answer: Lower body lift If the incision is circumferential (or goes all the way around), then this is a lower body lift (LBL). A belt lipectomy also uses a circumferential scar. Though both procedures help correct circumferential skin laxity, a lower body lift is different from a belt lipectomy. Lower body lift aesthetically addresses the abdomen, lateral thigh, flanks, and posterior buttocks. With a lower body lift, the incision is kept low. The goal of a lower body lift is a well hidden scar below most panty lines. A Belt lipectomy puts the scar high around the "belt line" of the abdomen. The belt lipectomy is more of a circumferential excision of pannus.The lower body lift produces a more aesthetically pleasing result, especially when combined with liposuction. In healthy patients, I perform a lower body lift. Please read my peer reviewed publication for more details regarding lower body lift and liposuction.
