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.

Derrick Plastic Surgery Reviews
Just love Dr. Derrick and his staff. They are incredibly kind and helpful. They answered all of my questions and made the whole experience so easy. I had a lift and am looking forward to implants at the end of February. He does great work!
I cannot brag enough on Dr Derrick and his staff!!!!! I have extreme anxiety, agoraphobia and the lowest self-esteem in the world! Dr Derrick actually listened to me! It’s been two months since my implants and I couldn’t be happier!! The follow up care is unbelievable and his staff is always there when you need them. My self confidence is up, my husband of 30yrs is like a kid in the candy store and I’m actually comfortable being seen in a bikini top for the first time since having kids (so 29 yrs). He chose my implant size and they’re perfect! Not too big, not too small, absolutely perfect for my small frame! I can’t recommend Dr Derrick enough!!!
Dr. Derrick did an amazing job on my procedure. He listened to my concerns and answered each question thoroughly. The staff is exceptional. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend Dr. Derrick and his staff!

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.
