What is Belt Lipectomy Surgery?

Belt lipectomy surgery is also called a lower body lift or 360-degree abdominoplasty.
It is a body contouring procedure that targets loose skin and stubborn fat around the abdomen, lower back, hips, and sides to reshape the entire midsection.
It creates a smoother, more toned contour by addressing all sides of the midsection, not just the front, like a traditional tummy tuck.
This procedure is indicated in individuals who have:
- Experienced significant weight loss (often after bariatric surgery)
- Excess loose or hanging skin that causes physical discomfort
- Weakened abdominal muscles that need repair
- Skin laxity that cannot be corrected with diet or exercise
A belt lipectomy in Dubai can be both reconstructive and aesthetic. It restores body confidence while relieving functional issues like rashes, limited mobility, and poor posture caused by excess skin.

The Belt Lipectomy Procedure

The belt lipectomy procedure is a complex surgery that requires expert planning, surgical precision, and postoperative care.
- Pre-operative Consultation: The surgeon conducts a detailed consultation to assess your goals, current health, body composition, and suitability for the procedure.
- Anesthesia & Incisions: The procedure is performed under general anesthesia. A circumferential incision, similar to a belt, is made around the lower torso, allowing access to both the front and back of the body.
- Tissue Removal & Muscle Repair: Unwanted skin and fat are carefully eliminated from the midsection, including the belly, lower back, hips, and sides, to create a smoother, more defined contour. The abdominal muscles are also tightened for better tone and support.
- Reshaping & Closure: The skin is carefully redraped to achieve smooth contours, and sutures are used to close the incision.
- Recovery & Results: Patients are usually hospitalized for a short period for monitoring and comfort. Recovery typically takes 4–6 weeks, with visible improvements in body shape and skin firmness within the first few weeks.

This surgery can help complete your weight-loss journey, offering not just cosmetic improvement but also functional benefits.
Is Belt Lipectomy Right for You?

You may be a candidate for belt lipectomy in Dubai if:
- You are close to your ideal body weight and maintain it steadily
- You have no major health issues that impair healing
- You are a non-smoker or willing to quit soon
- You have a positive mindset and realistic expectations
Postoperative Recovery and Aftercare

- Initial recovery may take 2–3 weeks, during which you should take good rest and avoid any strenuous activity.
- Swelling, bruising, and tightness are normal and subside gradually.
- You’ll be wearing compression garments to support healing and reduce swelling.
- Light walking is encouraged soon after surgery to prevent blood clots.
