Can a body lift procedure address cellulite?
A body lift procedure primarily focuses on addressing excess skin and improving body contours rather than directly targeting cellulite. While the procedure can contribute to a smoother overall appearance, it may not completely eliminate cellulite. I would recommend discussing specific concerns about cellulite with your plastic surgeon, as they can provide you with additional options or treatments that specifically target cellulite reduction for more comprehensive results.
