Lower Body Lift in Abu Dhabi
A transformative procedure by Dr. Bravo to reshape and tighten the abdomen, thighs, flanks, and buttocks — ideal for post-weight loss body contouring.
What Is a Lower Body Lift?
A lower body lift, also known as a belt lipectomy, is a comprehensive contouring surgery that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen, flanks, lower back, buttocks, and outer thighs. It is most often performed on patients who have undergone massive weight loss and are left with sagging, redundant skin around the midsection and lower body.
This procedure restores proportion, skin tone, and function — not only improving aesthetics, but also comfort, mobility, and clothing fit.
Dr. Bravo performs the lower body lift as part of his signature post-weight loss body contouring program, offering natural-looking, long-lasting results tailored to each patient’s anatomy and goals.
