This procedure can either be performed in isolation or in combination with other body contouring and weight loss procedures like Liposuction, Tummy Tuck etc. What are the procedures for body lift surgery? Body Lift is performed in a hospital setting under general anesthesia and can take about 5 - 7 or may be 10 hours depending on what other cosmetic surgery procedures are performed along with it.

Body Lift also involves Liposuction of the buttocks, thighs and abdomen areas. Lastly your surgeon will work on the flabby arms (commonly called bat wings) and make them shapely.
