Body Lift in Statesboro, GA
Consultations and follow-up visits at our Statesboro office on Merchant Way, with surgery at RenewalASC, our accredited surgery center in Savannah.
Body Lift for Statesboro Patients
Losing a significant amount of weight changes your life before it changes your mirror. Skin that once fit a larger body often stays behind, hanging loose around the abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs, long after the weight itself is gone. A body lift addresses that directly. Dr. McGovern removes the excess skin in a single circumferential procedure, working all the way around the midsection rather than treating one area at a time, so the body that emerges finally matches the effort already spent losing the weight.
For patients from Statesboro and the surrounding Bulloch County towns, your consultation happens close to home, at our office on Merchant Way. There, Dr. McGovern examines how much skin remains, explains the 360-degree approach, and builds a surgical plan around your particular case. The surgery itself takes place at RenewalASC, our accredited surgery center in Savannah, about an hour away, where Dr. McGovern performs the procedure under general anesthesia over 5 to 7 hours, removing skin from the front, sides, and back in one operation.
A body lift at RenewalMD typically ranges from $15,000 to $25,000, depending on the extent of the procedure. Plan on 3 to 4 weeks away from work, with drains and compression garments in place for several weeks, and 8 to 12 weeks for a full recovery. Final results settle in at around 1 year. Individual results vary.

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.

Why Statesboro Patients Choose RenewalMD
Consultations stay close to home
Your consultation and follow-up visits take place at our Statesboro office. The one trip to Savannah is for surgery day itself, at RenewalASC, about an hour from Merchant Way.
One surgery, full circumference
Rather than treating the abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs separately, Dr. McGovern removes excess skin in a single circumferential procedure, so your midsection is addressed as one connected area.
She understands the work behind the weight loss
Dr. McGovern has seen the discipline it takes to lose significant weight, whether through bariatric surgery or changes in daily habits, and she builds the surgical plan to finish that work with care.
A scar placed to stay hidden
The incision runs around the entire midsection but is placed low enough to stay beneath underwear. Over 1 to 2 years, it fades considerably, a detail Dr. McGovern plans for from the start.
Dr. Meghan McGovern, board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, performs every body lift herself, and she sees Statesboro-area consultations and follow-ups at the Merchant Way office.

Is a body lift done in Statesboro or Savannah?
Your consultation and follow-up visits are done at our Statesboro office on Merchant Way. The surgery itself is performed at RenewalASC, our accredited surgery center in Savannah, about an hour from Statesboro, under general anesthesia over 5 to 7 hours.
How much weight should I lose before a body lift?
You should be at or near your goal weight and stable for at least 6 months before a body lift. Dr. McGovern will review your weight history at your Statesboro consultation to confirm the timing is right.
How long is recovery from a body lift?
Plan on 3 to 4 weeks off work, with drains and compression garments needed for several weeks after surgery. Full recovery takes 8 to 12 weeks, and final results settle in at around 1 year.
Can a body lift be combined with other procedures?
Some patients choose to pair a body lift with an arm lift, thigh lift, or breast procedure, though these are sometimes staged across separate surgeries for safety. Dr. McGovern will go over what makes sense for your health history at consultation.
