What Is Lower Body Lift Surgery?
A lower body lift is a body contouring surgery that removes hanging sagging skin and stubborn fat to reshape and lift parts of the body that are most commonly affected by pregnancy and weight loss. Lower body lift surgery concentrates on the mid- and lower body, including the buttocks, stomach, flanks, low back, and upper thighs. At Chirag Mehta MD Plastic Surgery, we can custom-tailor your lower body lift based on the amount of excess skin, fat, and sagging you want to address. Using his experience and training, Dr. Chirag Mehta can deliver results that look both subtle and dramatic. If your body has seen changes due to pregnancy, weight loss, or age, a lower body lift can help you feel tighter, younger, and more confident. Learn more about this treatment and start building your custom lower body lift plan by contacting our Sherman, TX plastic surgery office.
How Do You Perform Lower Body Lift Surgery?
Lower body lift surgery is performed using general anesthesia, and most patients require at least one night's stay in the hospital to monitor their recovery. Depending on the amount of work being done, the surgery itself can take anywhere from 4 – 7 hours. The incision is usually placed along where a belt is worn, which is why it is also known as a circumferential 360 (or, in some cases, a beltectomy). After making the incision, Dr. Mehta will perform liposuction to remove any fatty pockets before trimming away the excess skin. After that, he will pull the remaining skin taut and secure it with sutures. Compression garments may be worn over the incisions to help create a slimmer appearance, as well as to minimize swelling, bruising, and bleeding.

Chirag Mehta MD Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr. Mehta is hands down amazing!! If you want to not only look amazing but feel amazing after surgery, then look no further! I had a breast augmentation with lift last year by a surgeon in the metroplex and was under the impression that I would be getting 380ml implants going into surgery. I went home with a drain on each side of my breasts and when I was finally awake enough, and read over my paperwork, I discovered my implant size was only 295ml!!! The previous surgeon told me that it was because I didn’t have enough skin to stretch any bigger of implant into and even with the 295ml implants, he had barely enough tissue to stitch back together!! Due to him stitching my skin so tightly it lost blood flow and became necrotic immediately!!! After 6 months of healing and being off of work: not being able to take a shower, only sponge baths for 3 months, having multiple debridements by the previous surgeon and his NP’s, having a wound vac for 3 of those months to my breasts, leaving that previous surgeon because I thought I was going to die due to the tissue kept dying, getting deeper and more necrotic each week that went by, to seeking help from a wound care professional, I finally healed, but was left with horrible scarring and hating the appearance of my breasts, that honestly looked no different than before surgery!!! Fast forward one year. I was in a car wreck and due to impact from the air bag, and pain/injury to my breasts, I was referred by a friend and co-worker to Dr. Mehta, and thank God I was!! He was upfront with me from the beginning. He told me that he would try his best to go a little bigger with my implant size, but was unsure if that would be possible, and I was just happy knowing what to expect waking up from surgery, and knowing that my breasts would be repaired and corrected at least!! Waking up from surgery with Dr. Mehta, I was told by his amazing staff in the surgery center that he was able to place 385ml implants, after all!! Immediately, you could see cleavage, unlike before, and my postop instructions has been a breeze!!! I didn’t have 1 drain leaving the surgery center, was able to shower 2 days after surgery, went back to work 1 week later, and I still can’t believe how easy he made this surgery!! The previous surgeon had even put me on antibiotics and Gabapentin prior to the surgery, and I kept asking Dr Mehta and his office if I needed this and was so scared that I would, but I didn’t and haven’t needed it at all!! I was traumatized by the previous surgeon and I am 100% sure I have PTSD from my prior experience, but Dr. Mehta has restored my faith in Plastic Surgery, and I WILL NEVER go to anyone else but DR. MEHTA!!!! I can’t praise him or thank him enough!! My outcome being just 3 weeks out is amazing and I’m so happy with my results!! Everyone comments on how much different my appearance looks now in just T Shirts, and my husband’s sanity has also been at ease because of the experience this time!!! If I could give Dr. Mehta 100 stars in this review I would!! So, again, if you are looking for a kind, honest, caring, and professional surgeon, I can promise you that you’ve found it Dr. Mehta!!! 🖤🖤🖤
Dr Mehta performed my trigger finger surgery and I've had terrific results. I had abdominoplasty-extended with flank and central liposuction plus mastopexy in Dec 2023. The results I've had with this surgery has surpassed all of my expectations in my wildest dreams! I couldn't have asked for better results ! Dr Mehta and his staff are awesome and I would recommend them for anyone looking for skilled surgeon that truly cares for his patients!
Great Dr. Great staff.
