Body Lift FAQs
Is body lift for me?
Answer:
If you’ve lost a dramatic amount of weight and been left with sagging skin in your lower body, you’re an ideal candidate for a lower body lift plastic surgery in our Sydney clinic.
What's involved?
Answer:
A lower body lift is a complex surgical procedure, so you must ensure you choose only the very best, most experienced plastic surgeon in Sydney.
Dr Hunt will perform your lower body at your chosen hospital, under a general anesthetic administered by one of his hand-selected anesthetists.
During the body lift procedure, Dr Hunt will make an incision around your waist, across your lower abdomen and down your thighs. He will trim any excess skin, tighten the muscles and remove all excess fat, before suturing your incisions closed with absorbable sutures.
In many cases, Dr Hunt will perform a tummy tuck at the same time as your lower body lift.
When can I go home?
Answer:
You will stay in the hospital for five to seven nights following body lift surgery. Once you are comfortable and able to get to and from a bathroom, you will be able to go home. Once home, you should limit your movements to around the house for a week or so.
Will I have to return for post-operative care?
Answer:
You’ll see Dr Hunt weekly for the first month after your surgery in one of our Sydney clinics. As you progress, the time between visits will become longer.
How long will I be off work?
Answer:
You will need to be off work for around three weeks following your lower body lift surgery.
When can I resume my normal activities?
Answer:
It will take around three weeks for you to fully recover from body lift.

When will I see the end result?
Answer:
The effects of your lower body lift will be immediate, although it may take up to two months to appreciate then full benefits.
You will have some scarring on your abdomen and thighs, and it will take at least a year for the scars to mature and fade so that they are pale and discreet. Dr Hunt will explain where your scars will be before your surgery. He will do his very best to ensure they are not visible in your swimsuit or underwear.
