Lower Body Lift Cost
A lower body lift is known as a belt lipectomy. It addresses sagging and droopy skin in the area of the body below the belt. A lower body lift or belt lipectomy concentrates on the abdomen, buttocks, hips and thighs. In the operation, the surgeon removes surgically sagging fat and excess skin. It is an operation requiring 5 to 8 hours operating time if the surgeon and patient decide to do everything at once. It will require less time if the decision is to break it up into segments. The operation is extensive and may also be expensive. Lower body lift costs are more than the cost of the surgeon's fee. In considering the overall lower body lifts cost, the patient must include the price of the hospital, laboratory work and anesthesia costs.
