Lower Body Lift in Plano, TX
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.
What Are the Benefits of a Lower Body Lift?

Patient Testimonials
- I had a breast lift with implants back in January, and love my results. Dr. Derrick is very personable, knowledgeable, and professional. The staff made me feel very comfortable and answered all of my questions. My friend had implants done and I loved her work. That is what prompted me to book a consult with Dr. Derrick, and I am SO GLAD that I did. I had breastfed two kids for three years, so my breasts were very deflated, saggy, and unsymmetrical. They look amazing now, and I have so much more confidence in my clothes. The staff and Dr. have continued to provide wonderful post-op care and clarification on my progress and questions. I very much recommend this doctor, you will not regret seeing Dr. Derrick!read moreread lessTeresa T.3/27/2025Dr. Derrick and his team are truly amazing, they ensure you feel comfortable every step of the way!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars
As a 1st grade teacher facing urgent medical circumstances, I needed a surgeon who could handle complex procedures quickly and expertly. Dr. Derrick not only met this challenge but exceeded every expectation I had. The combination of abdominoplasty, muscle repair, liposuction, alongside a very large hernia repair was no small feat, yet the results are absolutely incredible.
Due to my circumstances, timing was everything. Dr. Derrick understood the urgency and had me scheduled for surgery within just two weeks of our consultation. This rapid response, without any compromise in thoroughness or preparation, speaks volumes about the efficiency and dedication of this practice. Despite the quick turnaround, I never felt rushed or that any detail was overlooked.
From the initial consultation through recovery, the entire team made me feel comfortable and well-informed. Dr. Derrick took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, set realistic expectations, and address all my concerns with patience and professionalism. The pre-operative planning was meticulous, and it showed in the final results.
As a 1st grade teacher, I was incredibly concerned about recovery time and getting back to my classroom full of energetic six-year-olds and seven-year-olds. Dr. Derrick’s surgical technique and post-operative care plan were so effective that I was back to work in just three weeks! This recovery timeline seemed impossible given the extent of the procedures, but the combination of expert surgical skill and comprehensive aftercare made it happen. I felt strong enough to handle my teaching duties and even had the energy to keep up with my students.
The transformation has been absolutely incredible. The hernia repair resolved painful symptoms I’d been living with, while the muscle repair restored my core strength completely. The abdominoplasty and liposuction results are stunning – I look and feel better than I have in years. Being able to stand confidently in front of my classroom, move freely without discomfort, and feel strong and healthy again has been life-changing. My students even commented that I seemed happier and more energetic!
From the urgent initial consultation through my remarkably fast recovery, every interaction with Dr. Derrick and the team was professional, compassionate, and thorough. Despite the time pressure, nothing was rushed in terms of explaining procedures, setting expectations, or providing post-operative care. The communication was excellent, and I always felt like a priority patient.
I would recommend Dr. Derrick without hesitation, especially for patients needing multiple procedures or facing time-sensitive situations. The ability to handle such complex surgery with precision while accommodating urgent scheduling needs demonstrates exceptional skill and dedication. For anyone considering similar procedures, particularly those in demanding professions like teaching, you couldn’t be in better hands.
