What Is a Lower Body Lift Surgery?
Lower body lift surgery is a transformative procedure that targets excess skin and fat around the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and lower back, typically after significant weight loss or aging. This surgery contours and tightens the lower body, creating a smoother and more toned appearance while improving comfort and mobility. At Derrick Plastic Surgery, Dr. Chase Derrick provides personalized lower body lift procedures to help patients achieve a balanced, sculpted look and renewed confidence. For more information or to learn if you're a candidate, contact our Plano, TX or Anna, TX office to schedule a consultation.
How Is a Lower Body Lift Performed?
A lower body lift is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 3-5 hours to complete. During the procedure, Dr. Derrick makes precise incisions around the lower torso, usually along the beltline, to remove excess skin and fat. The underlying tissues are tightened, and the skin is repositioned for a smoother, more contoured appearance. Liposuction may also be used to refine stubborn fat deposits. Due to the complexity of the surgery, an overnight stay can be added for close monitoring and optimal recovery if a patient desires.

Lower Body Lift Reviews
"I LOVE THEM!!!"
I'm so glad I did it! I felt so comfortable from the moment I walked into the office. Dr. Derrick was confident in the plan and answered all of my questions. LOVE my results!
I'm SO HAPPY!!!
Dr Derrick and his team were fantastic. I had round 1 of my plastics journey in January after massive weight loss his work is INCREDIBLE. My scars are thin and are healing beautifully. I always was scared of looking boxy, and I feel like he did an amazing job of following my contouring and truly making my body look amazing! Dr Derrick and his team were fantastic about following up with me and keeping in touch. I was able to text or email with any concerns and they got back with me ALWAYS within a timely manner (I eventually learned I had to tell them not to answer me if it was after 5 or on weekends if it wasn’t important because they will and they deserve time off too!) I can’t wait for round two. They truly provide what I believe to be holistic service and I’m so grateful for my choice!
He did such a GREAT JOB! My breasts look AMAZING!

What to Expect
A lower body lift is classified as an advanced surgery. It takes many patients at least two weeks to get back to everyday activities, and in certain cases, up to six months before getting back to more strenuous movements such as aerobic exercise. Dr. Chase Derrick or a member of His staff will go over clear instructions and information on caring for the wound so that scarring is minimized as much as possible. While the recovery can seem long, the results can be extraordinary, providing patients with a smoother, tighter body without the loose, hanging skin that holds them back from experiencing a full life. Many patients feel it is one of the most worthwhile cosmetic surgeries available today.
