What Is A Body Lift?
If significant weight loss hasn't given you the toned look you want, a body lift at Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery in Pensacola, FL may help. This procedure combines surgeries to enhance the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs by removing excess skin, eliminating stubborn fat, and tightening remaining skin. Ideal for those with sagging skin in the tummy, buttocks, or thighs, a body lift can help you achieve your aesthetic goals. Contact Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery to schedule a consultation.
How Is A Body Lift Performed?
The body lift is performed as an outpatient procedure using general anesthesia. It may be combined with other surgeries, such as a breast or arm lift, depending on your goals. An incision is made around the lower part of the body to remove excess skin from the abdomen, legs, and hips. The incision is placed as low as possible on the front of the belly and near the hip bone to keep it easily hidden under the panty line. Additionally, a new opening for the navel is created in the treated skin, and the incisions are sutured to complete the procedure.
What Are the Benefits of A Body Lift?

- Tightening the lower section of the body (such as the upper legs and belly)
- Rejuvenating and firming wrinkled, hanging skin
- Boosting self-confidence

Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery Reviews
They were absolutely wonderful. They took me in as an emergency patient. They had me in 10 minutes after somebody had made a phone call. They were very calm and friendly and informative of my situation and what the steps they were going to take to resolve my situation. Dr Nathan Patterson and his lovely team of super friendly women had me in there and out in a total of 20 minutes. NOW THAT IS HOW YOU DO BUSINESS! Super “On Point”!!!💋👍🏽🤩🥇💯
I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Dr. Butler! From my initial consultation through my recovery, I felt completely comfortable, informed, and cared for. Dr. Butler took the time to listen to what I wanted and made sure my results would look natural and fit my body.I couldn’t be happier with my results! I feel more confident, and my outcome is even better than I had hoped for. I am so thankful that I chose Dr. Butler and his team!

Frequently Asked Questions
How is a body lift different from a tummy tuck?
A body lift addresses excess skin and fat across multiple areas, including the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs, while a tummy tuck focuses only on the abdominal area. A body lift is often recommended for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight and need comprehensive skin tightening beyond just the midsection.
Will a body lift help with loose skin on my thighs?
Yes, a body lift can improve sagging skin on the thighs, particularly the outer thighs, by removing excess tissue and tightening the remaining skin. If significant laxity is present in the inner thighs, a separate thigh lift may be recommended for more targeted contouring.
How long will my results last after a body lift?
Results from a body lift are long-lasting, especially when supported by a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. While natural aging will continue, the skin and body contours will remain significantly improved compared to before surgery. Maintaining a consistent weight helps preserve the outcome over time.
