tummy tuck los angeles - Tummy Tuck or Body Lift?

You need to consider which body areas are bothering you the most when asked to decide between a tummy tuck and lower body lift. After massive weight loss, fat is lost differently by each patient. While some patients may lose a significant amount of abdominal fat, others may not lose much. While a significant amount of fat may be lost by some patients from their thighsand others buttocks, others may not lose anything. How well the skin will contract or shrink-wrap around he area of fat loss is another variable. The amount of skin contracture depends on factors such as age, amount of weight loss and quality of skin.

While deciding between [tummy tuck Beverly Hills] andlower body lift, it has to be considered what each procedure will do. Both tummy tuck as well as lower body lift may removeabdominal skin and fat. As both tummy tuck and lower body lift tighten the rectus or abdominal muscles, they may lead to a flat abdomen. However, the lower body lift is much advanced than a tummy tuck.

A lower body lift may be a better surgey if outer hips, love handles lower back and buttocks bother you. The lower body lift or 360 body lift involves an incision that extends around body, removing skin and fat from entire torso. The incision extends from just above the pubic region, around the hips, and meets in the back. Skin and fat may be removed from the abdomen, outer hips, lower back and buttocks by lower body lift. It may lead to flat abdomen, contoured outer thighs and lifted buttocks. Incomparison, tummy tuck only removes skin and fat from mid abdomen and doesn't address the hips or buttocks.

Minimal chances of dog-ear is another benefit of lower body lift over tummy tuck. A dog-ear is a collection of skin and fatleft at the end of incision or scar. This may occur after tummy tuck if incision being too short and not enough skin and fat was removed. A tummy tuck dog-ear is usually corrected by extending the incision and removal of excess skin and fat. Because of the design of the surgery and the fact that there is no end to the incision the chances of a dog-ear by lower body lift is minimized. Some tummy tuck dog-ears are so large that the incision is extended further towards the back to remove the dog-ear. This may lead to longer incision known as extended tummy tuck. In extended tummy tuck, the incision is longer but it does not truly lift the outer thighs. Additionally, an extended tummy tuck does not raise the buttocks. As lower body lift raises abd tightens the outer thighs and buttocks, it is usually better than an extended [tummy tuck Los Angeles].

In conclusion, the lower body lift may be a better procedure than tummy tuck if outer hips, thighs and buttocks are bothering. Although longer and more involved procedure, body lift addresses more areas in a single surgery than the tummy tuck.
