Body Lift in Baltimore

Body lift surgery delivers dramatic, long-lasting results—but maintaining them depends on your lifestyle:

• Stable weight: Fluctuations can compromise your results. Patients should be near their goal weight for at least 4–6 months before surgery.

• Healthy habits: A nutritious diet, regular exercise, and good hydration all contribute to sustained outcomes.
• Sun protection: Protecting incision areas from UV exposure helps scars heal better and keeps your skin looking its best.

Patients often report improved mobility, self-confidence, and clothing fit long after their surgery.
