A single incision all the way around the waistline. Removes the abdominal apron in front, the roll across the lower back and flanks, and lifts the buttocks and outer thighs as one continuous unit. The big operation — and the one where the gap between an advertised surgeon fee and the real total is widest.

A circumferential lower body lift, also called a belt lipectomy or a 360 body lift, uses one incision around the waist. In front it removes the abdominal apron. At the sides and across the lower back it takes the roll. The same pull lifts the buttocks and the outer thighs.
An extended tummy tuck stops short of that circle. It reaches the flanks and leaves the back and the buttocks. A posterior trunk lift is sometimes done later, or paired with an extended tummy tuck, as two smaller operations in place of this one.
Among the procedures on this site, the typical operating time here is the longest, so facility time and anesthesia dominate the bill. The gap between a surgeon's fee in an advertisement and the amount on the invoice is widest on this operation. Compare totals. In the benchmark table, read the basis: "surgeon fee only" is half a price.
The published rate and its citation are further down this page. Series like that one mostly count wound separation and fluid collections treated in clinic over the following weeks. The rate climbs further at a higher BMI; the citation says so. Recovery is long, and the ordinary problems are harder if you cannot get back to the surgeon. We are not doctors. Take the figure to someone who can apply it to you.
This page describes the operation. It is not a recommendation to have surgery.
One incision goes all the way around the waist. In front it removes the abdominal apron. At the sides and across the lower back it takes the roll. The same pull lifts the buttocks and the outer thighs.
An extended tummy tuck reaches the flanks and stops. It leaves the back and the buttocks. A lower body lift continues around the waist. A posterior trunk lift is sometimes done later instead of doing the full circle at once.
Published rate: 37%
Meta-analysis of 28 studies, 1,380 patients (StatPearls): 37% overall — dehiscence 17%, seroma 13%, infection 5%, skin necrosis 4%, hematoma 3%, DVT/PE 3%. Rises to ~50% above BMI 32.
A high number here usually means frequent minorcomplications — wound separation and fluid collections that are managed in the office over weeks — rather than disasters. It is the main reason having this surgery far from home is a bad trade. We are not doctors; discuss these figures with a surgeon.
