Is Body Lift Right for You?
Answer a few quick questions to see if body lift could be a good fit for you — or take the full Renewal Assessment for a comprehensive treatment plan.
What to Expect
A body lift is a comprehensive recontouring procedure for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight. Dr. McGovern removes excess hanging skin from the abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs, reshaping the body in a full 360-degree approach.
Ideal Candidates
You have lost significant weight, whether through bariatric surgery or changes to how you live, and skin that no longer fits the body beneath it now hangs around your midsection.
The Consultation
Dr. McGovern will assess how much excess skin remains, walk you through the circumferential approach, and build a surgical plan suited to comprehensive recontouring.
The Procedure
A major surgery performed at RenewalASC under general anesthesia over 5-7 hours. Excess skin is removed circumferentially — front, sides, and back.
Recovery
Plan for 3-4 weeks off work. Drains and compression garments for several weeks. Full recovery at 8-12 weeks.
Artistry Meets Precision
Dr. McGovern knows what it takes to lose significant weight. She has seen the discipline behind it, and she is committed to giving your body the last piece of that work.
Her meticulous technique removes excess skin while creating smooth, natural contours — completing the work you started.
Cost & Financing
A body lift at RenewalMD typically ranges from $15,000 to $25,000, depending on the extent of the procedure. This surgery addresses the entire midsection in one comprehensive approach.
These estimates are for illustration only. Actual costs are determined after your consultation, and financing terms set by the financing companies are subject to change. Subject to credit approval.
