Muscle Repair with Lower Body Lift?

February 1, 2010
Asked By:Dlite in California

Hi, I read something recently about the Lower body lift addressing "muscle repair" that had "fallen." I do know that muscle repair is often involved with a Tummy tuck to repair weakened ab muscles, but I did not know other muscles could be involved in a lower body lift. Could you enlighten me?On the one hand it seems logical as the newly sewn skin needs to be tethered to something, but on the other hand, I'm not a doctor and that's what they pay you guys the big bucks for. Thanks in advance!
