Tightening of belly, legs, arms
A lifting operation can also be applied to the thighs, upper arms or abdominal wall.
- In abdominoplasty, the skin of the upper abdomen is pulled down and excess tissue is removed. The incision is made between the two iliac crests. This form of surgery requires sufficient health on the part of the patient, as there may be severe blood loss, among other things.
- An upper arm lift is often combined with liposuction of the upper arm to remove slack tissue.
- Excess tissue is also removed when lifting the thighs; in some cases, fat is also removed by suction.
