Lower Body Lift
Lower body lift addresses the midsection and upper thigh region. It is the surgical process of removing the excess skin and fat that remains after weight loss.
The result is a smoother, toned skin surface and an overall thinner midsection and thigh.
Weight loss can be an exciting milestone for many, but what often remains is excess skin that is simply impossible to eliminate by diet and exercise alone. General aging , as well as child bearing can also cause this sagging of the skin. The lower body lift can restore the tone and shape of the abdomen, back, buttocks, hips and thighs.

A customized strategy is determined for each individual. The procedure is often combined with breast lifts, arm lifts and liposuction to retain proper body proportion. Best possible outcomes can be determined and discussed in a consultation with Dr. Brady.
A lower body lift requires great artistry and can be seen as a sculpting process. The goal is a balanced, natural and beautiful overall look.
When a lower body lift is considered after weight loss, it is important that the individual reach and maintain their goal weight for at least a few months prior to the procedure.
During the procedure, skin is lifted from underlying tissue, muscles are tightened and stitched, fat is removed where necessary, and the skin is sutured closed. The navel is often relocated to a new position.

After surgery, patients are encouraged to walk as soon as they are able to, although strenuous activities must be limited for about a month. Results are visible immediately.

Testimonials
I have not felt this good, nor slept as well in a very, very long time. My knee (arthritis from an ACL surgery) my wrist (from that break) and all my old lady aches and pains are so much better. I saved the best for last. My back hasn’t felt this good in 20 years. No joke. I am simply amazed!! When one lives with chronic pain, one doesn’t think relief is possible. Thank you, my friend.

I can not say enough good things about my experience with Dr. Brady. Not only is he an excellent doctor who stays on top of the very latest procedures, breakthroughs, etc...(which my situation greatly benefitted) but just important to me, Dr. Brady is a kind & compassionate person. I'm fortunate to know him.

About a year ago I learned I had Dupuytren's contracture in my hand as a result of a previously broken wrist. When I researched this condition, I found out there was no cure and I would have to undergo extensive surgeries to maintain the use of my hand. I later learned that my own stem cells could be used to eliminate the thickening and tightening in my hand. Dr. Brady extracted fat from my torso, processed these cells and injected them into my hand. I started to notice the difference in a few weeks and now, 6 months later, I have no thickening or tightening in my hand. Now that I understand how stem cells work I want to help spread the word about their effectiveness. This simple procedure saved my hand and I’m very thankful.

During a consultation with Dr. Brady I brought up an issue with my hands. Due to normal aging and developing arthritis at my thumb joints, I was in a lot of pain throughout the day and losing my ability to have a strong grip, practice yoga without pain and beginning to drop things. Dr. Brady offered an option of taking fat cells from my abdomen and injecting them into the joints on both hands. He reviewed the benefits of the 10-20% stem cells in the fat and the healing qualities. Within several weeks, the pain disappeared, I regained full strength and pain when doing things with my hands and the resting pain I experienced for over 1 year was gone. This simple non-invasive procedure has been life changing for me.

As a new patient of stem cell therapy, we have so far done seven injections into the site in which the results have been nothing but positive. Unlike cortisone, the results are not instant but instead take few days to kick in. On the upside, they seem to last much longer and are all natural to your own body. So far, there have been zero side effects and the pain in the arthritic joint seems to dissipate for around 3-4 months after each injection. Dr. Brady has been a lifesaver for me.

I have had extremely painful hands due to past injuries. Fishing is an important part of my life and this pain increasingly affected my ability to enjoy fishing. Stem cell therapy reduced my pain level allowing me to again enjoy fishing and other activities. I will continue with Stem cell therapy because I believe it is a great alternative to other therapies.
