What is recovery like after a body lift procedure?
How long does a body lift procedure take?
Can I get both an upper and lower body lift simultaneously?
Because each body lift procedure is customized based on the patient’s unique goals, the details of the recovery period can vary. However, most patients require around one to two weeks of rest before returning to work and their normal routines. During this period, you can expect to experience swelling, bruising, and soreness in the treatment area(s). You’ll also need to wait at least four to six weeks to participate in strenuous physical activity.
The length of your body lift will depend on the specifics of your treatment plan. On average, though, an upper body lift takes around two to four hours, while a lower body lift takes around four to six hours.
Yes, for some patients, it is appropriate to combine an upper and lower body lift into one procedure. This is typically referred to as a “full body lift,” and it’s an option that your surgeon can discuss with you during your initial consultation.
