Topic:  360-Degree Body Lift
Speaker: James Koehler, MD, FAACS
Moderator: Jacob Haiavy, MD, FAACS

The 360º Body Lift is a customized body contouring procedure, typically performed on those who have lost massive amounts of weight to restore their natural figure. The 360º Body Lift goes one step beyond traditional tummy tuck surgery and liposuction by combining several techniques to sculpt and contour the entire midsection. The 360º Body Lift involves removing excess fat and skin around the entire waistline, back, and abdomen. The abdominal muscles are then tightened up to reshape and tone up the midsection, lower back, and flanks area. There are various reasons why patients might have a higher risk for complications from this surgery and we will address what surgeons can do to ensure their body lift patients' safety.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the activity, the learner should be able to:

  1. Describe the types of cases that are appropriate for a 360-degree body lift procedure.
  2. Name the safety precautions and surgical steps.
  3. Articulate the guidelines for achieving optimal patient outcomes.

  • Financial Relationships: Relationships in which the individual benefits by receiving a salary, royalty, intellectual property rights, consulting fee, honoraria, ownership interest (e.g., stocks, stock options or other ownership interest, excluding diversified mutual funds), or other financial benefit. Financial benefits are usually associated with roles such as employment, management position, independent contractor (including contracted research), consulting, speaking and teaching, membership on advisory committees or review panels, board membership, and other activities from which remuneration is received, or expected.  ACCME considers relationships of the person involved in the CME activity to include financial relationships of a spouse or partner.
