Surgical Technique 

Dr. Snyder employs a multifaceted approach to lower body lift surgery, combining several techniques to achieve optimal results: 

  1. Liposuction: Liposuction may be performed to remove excess fat deposits and improve body contours before skin tightening. This step allows for enhanced lower body sculpting, creating a smoother and more proportionate appearance. 
  1. Fat Grafting: Fat grafting may be used to restore volume and shape the buttocks or hips. This technique involves harvesting fat from donor sites via liposuction, purifying it, and strategically injecting it into targeted areas for natural-looking enhancement. 
  1. Skin Tightening: The core component of the lower body lift involves removing excess skin and tightening the remaining tissue to create a firmer, more youthful contour. Dr. Snyder utilizes advanced surgical techniques to achieve optimal skin tightening while minimizing scarring and preserving natural body proportions.

Lower Body Lift Step-by-Step 

Before  

Before the operation, patients undergo a consultation to discuss their aesthetic concerns, medical history, and desired outcomes. Dr. Snyder conducts a thorough evaluation to develop a customized treatment plan tailored to each patient’s unique needs and goals. Patients are then guided through a detailed pre-operative process, including guidelines for medication, smoking cessation, and lifestyle modifications to optimize surgical outcomes.  

During 

Patients receive general anesthesia to ensure comfort throughout the procedure. Dr. Snyder then begins by performing liposuction to remove excess fat deposits and sculpt the lower body contours. Next, excess skin is carefully excised, and the remaining tissue is tightened and repositioned to achieve a smoother, firmer appearance.  

The surgery lasts 5 – 8 hours, depending on the number of procedures performed. Fat grafting may be performed as needed to enhance volume and shape in specific areas. Patient safety and comfort are prioritized throughout the surgery, and meticulous attention to detail and surgical precision are used. 

After 

Dr. Snyder provides post-operative instructions to promote healing and minimize discomfort. Patients may experience swelling, bruising, and temporary limitations in mobility, which can be managed with prescribed medication and compression garments. Dr. Snyder and his compassionate team are readily available to address any questions or concerns that may arise during the recovery process, ensuring a smooth and successful outcome. 

Aside from extensive incisions, the body and skin need adequate time to adjust to their new positions created by the surgery. Most patients will need 2 – 3 weeks before returning to a light routine. It can take up to a full year for the final results of this surgery to appear.
