Lifts, surgery that removes excess skin and fat. Goal is to improve the appearance after massive weight loss. You may be a candidate if you have experienced a loss of skin elasticity of the thigh, hip, or buttock areas. Incision does leave a scar and will be positioned so as to minimize visibility and will eventually fade with time. Procedure usually lasts for several hours and can be an outpatient procedure or require a short hospital stay.
