Restore Your Shape with Comprehensive Midsection Contouring
If you’ve worked hard to lose weight or overcome the changes that come with ageing or pregnancy, you may still be left with loose, sagging skin around your abdomen, flanks, back, or buttocks. A 360 body lift could be the life-changing solution you’re looking for — helping you achieve a firmer, smoother, and more youthful silhouette.
At Manchester Private Hospital in Manchester UK, our specialist surgeons offer this advanced body contouring procedure with expert care and personalised treatment plans to suit your unique body and goals.
What Is a 360 Body Lift?
A 360 body lift — sometimes referred to as a 360 lower body lift or belt lipectomy — is a comprehensive surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the entire midsection. It addresses the front of the abdomen, the sides (love handles), lower back, and buttocks in one coordinated operation.
Unlike a standard tummy tuck, 360 lift surgery reshapes your body from all angles, tightening the muscles and lifting the tissue around your waistline. The result? A more contoured, sculpted body profile that reflects the hard work you’ve already done.
Are You a Suitable Candidate?
You may be an ideal candidate for a 360 body lift if:
- You’ve experienced significant weight loss, whether through lifestyle changes or bariatric surgery
- You have loose, hanging skin around your waist, hips, back, or thighs
- Your weight has remained stable for at least 6–12 months
- You are in good general health and do not smoke
- You are emotionally prepared for a surgical recovery and have realistic expectations
This procedure is especially popular among patients seeking to complete their transformation after weight loss. It helps remove the physical reminders of your previous size and gives you a body that aligns with how you feel inside.
How the Procedure Works
Performed under general anaesthesia, the surgery involves a continuous incision that runs around the lower torso. Through this incision, your surgeon will:
- Remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen, flanks, back, and buttocks
- Tighten underlying abdominal muscles if needed
- Reshape the midsection and lift sagging buttock tissue
- Use liposuction in specific areas to enhance definition
The goal of 360 lift surgery is to deliver natural-looking yet dramatic improvements in your body contour. The procedure usually takes several hours and often requires an overnight hospital stay.

Many patients report not just physical improvements, but emotional ones too — feeling more confident, comfortable in clothing, and free to move.

What to Expect During Recovery
Recovery following a 360 body lift can take several weeks, and our clinical team will support you every step of the way. Here’s a general timeline:
- 1–2 nights in the clinic for observation
- You’ll need to wear a compression garment for 4–6 weeks
- Light activity can resume after 2–3 weeks
- Full recovery usually takes 6–8 weeks
Swelling, bruising, and fatigue are normal in the early days. You will also have visible incisions — typically placed low around the waist — which will gradually fade over time. While there will be a 360 body lift scar, our team uses advanced techniques to minimise its appearance and position it discreetly below clothing lines.
We provide a full 360 body lift recovery guide and access to your care team throughout the healing process.
