A buttock lift (also known as belt lipectomy) improves and/or removes excess, sagging buttock and thigh skin that has developed as a result of weight loss, aging and gravity, or genetics. By raising and tightening the skin over the buttocks, a buttock lift makes the buttocks appear less saggy, dimpled or wrinkled.
If fitness and weight loss efforts have not helped achieved your goals, a buttock lift may be right for you.
- Individuals with loss of skin elasticity in the buttock area due to extreme weight loss or aging
- Individuals with thighs that are crinkled, dimpled or flabby due to lack of exercise or cellulite
- Non-smokers
- Individuals with a positive outlook and realistic goals for what back lift surgery can accomplish
- Individuals committed to leading a healthy lifestyle including proper nutrition and fitness.
The best way to determine if you are a candidate for a buttock lift is through a consultation with an expert at Cleveland Clinic Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery Center.
