Frequently Asked Questions in Consultation
WHAT ARE THE COMPLICATIONS OF A BODY LIFT?
Body lift surgery is a lengthy procedure. It therefore necessarily involves risks.
A distinction can be made between immediate and delayed post-operative risks.
The risk post-operative is the hematoma. It is necessary to return to the operating room to evacuate the hematoma.
The second most common risk is scarring. Scars are long, covering the entire abdominal circumference.
Healing problems, such as thread allergies, can occur 3 weeks to 1 month after the operation. Nursing care is all that's needed to heal properly.
Healing problems most often occur at the union of the posterior scars, where tension is greatest.
CAN OTHER SURGERIES BE PERFORMED AT THE SAME TIME?
The body lift alone is a major operation.
It is therefore unreasonable to perform other surgeries at the same time.
The surgeon works with the patient to draw up a care plan for scheduling other surgeries at a later date: breast lift (mastopexie), arm lift (brachioplastie), lifting des cuisses (cruroplastie).
It is recommended to wait 3 months between two cosmetic surgeries.
