How is a body lift procedure carried out?

Body lift – the removal of excess skin following weight loss – is carried out under general anaesthetic; it is a relatively demanding operation that can only be undertaken by a patient in good health.

A body lift takes 1–4 hours, depending on the extent of the area being treated. Incisions are always made in such a way as to avoid unnecessary unsightly scars.

A body lift is a highly effective solution, for example, for unsightly sagging skin resulting from weight loss.

It is a surgical procedure that effectively removes excess skin and subcutaneous fat both in the upper body, such as the arms (arm lift) and breasts, as well as sagging skin on the abdomen (abdominoplasty), and the lower body, which includes the hips, buttocks and thighs.

Body lifting is performed either in a single area or around the entire circumference of the body. However, it is always carried out approximately 6 months after weight loss, to allow the weight to stabilise.

If extreme obesity associated with high blood pressure, diabetes, sleep apnoea, etc. has been diagnosed, the ideal time is 1–2 years later.

In exceptional cases, body lifting is also performed on women after childbirth who are dealing with loose skin following repeated births and are left with excess skin folds.

Removal of excess skin following weight loss and the subsequent recovery period

The treated areas are sensitive and painful. Commonly available painkillers are recommended to relieve the pain.

Swelling and bruising may occur after the procedure, but these will disappear within a few days. We recommend icing the treated area. Rest and the necessary home care are recommended for approximately 2–6 weeks.

To ensure the procedure is as effective as possible, it is necessary to wear elastic compression garments for up to 3 months. The procedure can be repeated after a certain period of time. Body lifting is performed only on healthy patients.

Unique and safe anaesthesia

At Premier Clinic, we are the only clinic in the Czech Republic to use unique German anaesthesia units that enable fully digital administration of anaesthesia.

All our anaesthesia is therefore administered as so-called low-flow anaesthesia using premium anaesthetic gas. This makes it easier for the patient to wake up and virtually eliminates the unpleasant side effects of anaesthesia.

FAQ

Frequently Asked
Questions

How and why does sagging skin develop?

Obesity is a long-term problem; it is sometimes linked to metabolic or other health issues, but following significant weight loss, excess skin always remains, which needs to be removed.


Who can benefit from having sagging skin removed?

The procedure is intended for people who have lost a significant amount of weight, as well as those who have developed excess skin due to ageing or multiple pregnancies. If you are looking for a gentler, non-surgical rejuvenation treatment, photorejuvenation or double chin removal may be an alternative.


Could there be any complications?

Provided the operation is carried out by an experienced surgeon at Premier Clinic, there is no risk of complications. Nevertheless, it is essential to undergo a pre-operative examination and consultation before any procedure.


When should a point lift not be performed?

We do not carry out the procedure in the event of an infection, immediately following a serious illness, or during pregnancy. We will discuss all contraindications during the consultation and as part of the pre-operative examination.
