Lower Body Lift at Natural Results Plastic Surgery is performed personally by Dr. Carlos Mata, board-certified plastic surgeon (ABPS/FACS), Castle Connolly Top Doctor since 2018, and Newsweek America's Best Plastic Surgeon, at the practice's AAAASF-accredited surgical suite in Scottsdale, Arizona. 25,000+ procedures performed.

An Introduction

Serving Phoenix, AZ - patients reach Dr. Carlos Mata's North Scottsdale office in approximately 25 to 45 minutes via Loop 101 / SR-51 / I-17 depending on origin (about 22 miles). A lower body lift offered at Natural Results AZ in Scottsdale is meticulously designed to reshape the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and hips. It represents a new chapter in life, especially for those who have lost weight or are looking to counteract the effects of aging and gravity. Renowned for its ability to refine body contours, the lower body lift significantly enhances quality of life. It delivers a more youthful and toned appearance while addressing the discomfort associated with loose, sagging skin, leading to improved physical mobility and a notable boost in self-confidence.

01
The Procedure

What is a Lower Body Lift?

Medically known as a belt lipectomy, a lower body lift aims to eliminate sagging skin in the lower torso and upper legs. It's especially advantageous for those who have undergone substantial weight loss, often resulting in excessive loose skin in these areas. By tightening and lifting the skin, a lower body lift restores a more natural and aesthetically pleasing body shape.

While several body contouring procedures are available, the lower body lift is distinct in its comprehensive approach to the lower torso. Unlike a tummy tuck (which focuses solely on the abdomen) or an inner/outer thigh lift (which targets only the thighs), a lower body lift addresses multiple areas in a single procedure.

Phoenix is the central city of the Phoenix metropolitan area, located west of Scottsdale. The practice is accessible from most Phoenix neighborhoods via the Loop 101 (Pima Freeway) and State Route 51 (Piestewa Freeway).

Primary route. Phoenix patients typically reach the office via State Route 51 (Piestewa Freeway) north to Loop 101 east, then to Thompson Peak Parkway. From central Phoenix, this route runs roughly twenty-two miles and twenty-five to forty-five minutes depending on time of day.

On the day of your visit.
