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.

How Is a Lower Body Lift Performed?
A lower body lift is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 4 – 7 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 may be required for close monitoring and optimal recovery.

From checking in on me to answering all my random questions! Dr Derrick listened to all my concerns wants and needs and made my wishes come true of my result expectations and beyond. He made me feel so comfortable about the whole process and results❤️
Excellent service thank you doctor plana for making me so beautiful I loved my surgery they have the best nurses also very kind thank you 🙏🏻
I first encountered Dr Derrick in a professional setting and liked how careful he was with his patients. When I discovered recently that one of my 17 year old breast implants had ruptured he came to my mind immediately. After doing a little more research and especially after the initial consultation with him and his staff I was totally comfortable moving forward with an implant exchange with him. I am obviously not nearly as young as was the first go around which is always a worry but everything turned out even better than I had hoped for. I am so so happy with my results. Even more, I really felt like Dr Derrick and his staff appreciated my choosing them and expressed that in the way they (Katie!) greeted us for appointments and and in how they continue to check on how I’m doing and are quick with responses to any questions that I may have. Highly recommend and will be a repeat customer if I ever need/want another procedure.
Dr. Derrick and his team were absolutely incredible! After having consultations with several other plastic surgeons in the area, I had a consultation with Dr. Derrick wanting to discuss a hernia repair and possible tummy tuck with liposuction. I was incredibly nervous as this would be first surgery ever and he answered all of my questions thoroughly and even gave his opinion on what he would do and more importantly, why. He ended up performing an extended tummy tuck, liposuction and was able to repair my 13 year old hernia. His coordinator was always available to answer any of my questions both before and after my surgery. I am now 6 weeks post-surgery and I LOVE my results. Far exceeded what I thought was possible!

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.
