How Is An Upper Body Lift Performed?
An upper body lift at Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The surgery involves multiple procedures customized to the patient's needs. An upper arm lift removes fat and excess skin through an incision under the arm. A breast lift eliminates surplus skin, tightens tissues, and repositions the nipples for a lifted look. Male breast reduction removes excess tissue and fat for a more masculine chest. A back lift targets fat rolls and excess skin with incisions near the bra line. Each step enhances the body's contour and appearance above the waist.

Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery Reviews
Just had my consultation with Dr. Patterson and it was more than what I expected. He made me feel comfortable and informed me more than what I expected. The staff were amazing as well and the facility was clean and beautiful. Thank you! See you soon!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️From my initial consultation to my surgery and every follow-up visit since, my experience with Dr. Leveque and the entire team at Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery has been amazing.I was extremely nervous going into this process, but Dr. Leveque, Ms. Amanda, Kody, and the entire staff have consistently made me feel comfortable, welcomed, and cared for. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to answer my questions—which, trust me, I have plenty of! 😂What I appreciate most is that the care didn’t stop once my surgery was over. They have continued to provide the same level of attention and reassurance throughout my recovery and follow-up visits. Dr. Leveque has been wonderful about explaining what to expect during the healing process and making sure I feel comfortable with my progress.Choosing to have surgery is a big decision, and having a team you trust makes all the difference. I’m so thankful I chose Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery and would highly recommend Dr. Leveque and her amazing staff to anyone considering plastic surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will there be visible scars after an upper body lift?
Yes, scars are expected as the procedure involves incisions, but our team at Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery takes care to place them in less noticeable areas, such as along natural skin folds. Over time, the scars typically fade with proper care. We also provide guidance on scar management to minimize their appearance.
How long do the results of an upper body lift last?
Results are long-lasting, especially when combined with a healthy lifestyle. However, factors like aging or weight fluctuations can impact the longevity of the results. Our team in Pensacola, FL, can discuss how to best maintain your improved contours during your consultation.
Are there risks or complications with an upper body lift?
As with any surgery, there are potential risks such as infection, bleeding, or adverse reactions to anesthesia, though these are rare. Our staff will review all possible risks and how they are managed during your consultation. Following post-operative care instructions can significantly reduce the likelihood of complications.
