Answer: Is lower body lift needed? From the photos it appears you would have nice correction with revision for the dog ears and liposuction to further sculpt your curves. It doesn't appear a full body lift is needed. You can also consider adding Aveli to address the cellulite.

Answer: 'pseudo lower body lift" Just correction of the dog ears would likely extend your incision another few inches, making it very close to a skin roll at the top of your buttocks where your liposuction incisions are (what you call a shelf). Extending it to the midline would take care of both the dog ears and that shelf, making a complete 360 degree incision without actually performing a true buttock/lateral thigh lift (LBL, or lower body lift). I don't feel you need a true LBL because you don't have true descent of buttock and thigh soft tissue off of their respective deeper structures. This would obviate the need for a second bbl if that shelf was the only reason for considering it. BTW, if that sounds good to you, I would perform some liposuction in that waist and hip area (hipwhere the dog ear and buttock shelf are). This would enhance the shape of your buttocks and narrow your waist in addition to the planned skin excision. You look fabulous, you are almost there!
