body lift: achievING a beautiful, shapely body after weight loss OR BARIATRIC SURGERY

Dramatic weight loss, aging skin, and major weight fluctuations can result in non-elastic skin that sags. Many patients who have undergone massive weight loss or bariatric surgery opt to get a body lift procedure. This procedure is completely customizable to fit your desired goals. By talking to Dr. Hardesty, he will come up with a unique treatment plan for you to make sure that at the end of the procedure you will feel confident and beautiful.

What is a Body Lift?

A body lift is a combination of procedures, thus keeping our motto of, “One Goal, Many Options”, that help patients to attain a slender form. After massive weight loss, the body is often left with loose, sagging skin that lacks elasticity. Exercise does not always shrink the overstretched, non-elastic skin, or remove the areas of diet-resistant fat. Thus, you are left with excess skin that falls off the stomach areas, thighs, and buttock. The body lift performed by Dr. Robert Hardesty restores the body to a more slender, athletic, and firm shape with one circular incision located at the lower hip area that is easily hidden with normal clothes or swimwear. This one-stage circumferential body contouring operation is truly liberating, allowing patients to again reclaim their body, wear the clothes they desire, as well as exercise without loose, hanging, and sagging skin.

Body Lift Recovery

Body lift procedures are typically in-patient (an overnight stay) due to the extent of the procedures. Patients usually spend one to two days in the hospital or after-care facility being cared for by staff. To help prepare you for the procedure and the recovery period, Dr. Hardesty will provide you with detailed instructions. The recovery period varies, but you will most likely need to rest for two weeks, most patients can return to work within three weeks. Full exercise is allowed after six weeks. Normal activities can be resumed within a few days to a week. It is important to make follow up appointments with Dr. Hardesty to make sure you are healing properly. A special and scientifically proven, anti-scar program is instituted after the incisions are healed consisting of Embrace technology and silicone gel strips. The body lift recovery can seem lengthy, but after one operation and one recovery, it is worth the life-long results that you will enjoy.
