At Renuance Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa in Temecula, Body Lift patients will receive care at our excellent surgical facility, which has accreditation from the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities (AAAAF). You are normally given general anesthesia for the procedure, and the team of experienced nurses makes sure you’re comfortable.
Your surgeon makes an incision in the particular area receiving the body lift. For example, during an arm lift, the incision is from your elbow to your armpit, and then excess tissue or fat is removed through liposuction. The skin is pulled tightly and then trimmed. During a body lift, any liposuctioned fat can be repurposed for another procedure. Your surgeon may suggest facial rejuvenation at the same time as your body lift, where they transfer fat to your face for a youthful look. Some scarring may occur around the incisions, but your surgeon works to keep the incision points as hidden as possible.
After the procedure, when the incisions have been closed, Temecula Body Lift patients may receive bandages and compression garments. Depending on the extensiveness of your body lift, you can normally expect to return to work and daily activities in 2-3 weeks. If you’re interested in giving your body a makeover and increasing your confidence, call the office or book an appointment online to discuss your body lift options with Renuance Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa today.
