Revive XLift™ in Miami, FL

High BMI doesn’t automatically rule you out from body contouring with our signature Revive XLift™ procedure. We evaluate each case individually to determine eligibility and can often remove excess skin and fat safely—even for patients with elevated BMI. XLift™ reshapes the body by targeting specific problem areas to achieve a slimmer, more sculpted silhouette. This procedure was created by our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Askari, who has more than a decade of experience in various cosmetic treatments. Patients appreciate the inclusive nature of XLift™, which uses the latest techniques to achieve dramatic changes with maximum safety and comfort.

What Is Revive XLift™?

Revive XLift™ is our signature cosmetic surgery that removes excess skin and fat. It is designed to contour the body by targeting specific problem areas. While the XLift™ doesn’t have strict BMI or weight requirements, candidacy is evaluated individually—making it a great option for many patients, as long as they’re in good overall health.. In the past, most people with high BMI were denied surgery due to concerns about risks and the lack of effective techniques. We have addressed these limitations and modified the body lift procedure to make it available for everybody.

The surgery time varies because it is customized for each patient’s needs. XLift™ requires anesthesia and incisions to remove excess tissue and reshape the target areas. This procedure creates a slimmer silhouette, helping patients with any BMI improve their appearance.

Surgeries That Can Be Included in XLift™

XLift™ for the Abdomen

XLift™ for the abdomen targets excess fat and loose skin in the stomach area. This customized procedure removes stubborn belly bulges and tightens abdominal muscles to achieve a flatter, more toned appearance. It may involve different types of tummy tuck – full, extended, and fleur-de-lis. The surgeon can also perform liposuction to achieve better results.

XLift™ for the Back

XLift™ for the back removes back rolls, bra bulges, and excess skin between the bra line and hips. After contouring problem spots in those areas, the back appears smoother and more streamlined. The surgeon may perform a bra roll lift, back lift, or total body lift.

XLift™ for the Breasts

This XLift™ procedure changes the shape of the breasts using advanced plastic surgery techniques customized for each patient’s unique goals. Excess skin is removed, and the underlying breast tissue is reshaped to achieve an ideal size and perkiness. This procedure may include a breast lift and/or breast augmentation.

XLift™ for the Arms

XLift™ can also sculpt and define the upper arms. Excess tissues are excised (cut away) to create a slimmer, better-contoured shape. Our surgery transforms sagging upper arms into the ones with improved tone and firmness. It involves an arm lift and other skin-tightening procedures.

XLift™ for the Thighs

This procedure helps our patients slim their thighs. It removes loose, overhanging skin from the inner and outer parts. As a result, patients can enjoy their refined thigh contours with smoother skin texture and silhouette. This procedure may include different types of thigh lifts – mini, full, medial, and spiral.

Consultation & Preparation for XLift™

Preparation for XLift™ begins with a consultation to assess the patient’s problem areas and cosmetic goals. During this meeting, Dr. Askari evaluates skin laxity, fat deposits, muscular structure, and breast tissue to determine the customized approach for surgery. Then, blood testing, medical clearance, and other standard screening procedures are prescribed.

Once a treatment plan is mapped out, the patient receives pre-operative instructions, such as not eating or drinking after midnight before the operation. The patient should arrange for a friend or family member to drive them home after surgery and help during initial healing.

We recommend preparing a comfortable recovery environment by stocking up on soft foods, ice packs, pillows, entertainment, loose clothing, and anything else that promotes rest and healing.

Revive XLift™ Procedure

General Anesthesia

Patients are given general anesthesia before the start of the XLift™ procedure to prevent any pain and maximize comfort. Our anesthesiology team monitors vital signs closely throughout the operation.

Surgical Incisions

Dr. Askari makes incisions at target areas that were marked during the consultation. These openings are created in natural folds and places that can be easily concealed by underwear or a swimsuit after healing.

Removal of Excess Tissue

Unwanted skin and fat deposits are carefully removed through the incisions using surgical tools and liposuction. The amount depends on the patient’s level of sagging and cosmetic goals. We do not have any restrictions. This customized approach is what makes XLift™ distinct from standard body lifts.

Reshaping and Contouring

After removing excess tissue, Dr. Askari skillfully reshapes the remaining fat, muscle, and skin for optimal contouring effects and proportions. His artistic approach helps him create the best form for the patient.

Closing the Incisions

Once the desired shape and silhouette are achieved, Dr. Askari closes the incisions with stitches and special surgical glue. Using proper techniques, we can promote faster healing and minimize visible scarring.

Post-Operative Garments and Dressings

The final step involves placing appropriate compression garments to facilitate recovery. Sterile dressings and bandages are also applied over the closed incisions before the patient is moved to recovery.

Recovery After XLift™

Patients can expect swelling, bruising, and other symptoms during the initial recovery period after an XLift™. This is normal and will begin to decrease after about two weeks. Bandages and compression garments must be worn to control swelling and promote skin retraction.

The first week of recovery requires plenty of rest with limited activity. Patients should not exert themselves and must have assistance standing up, sitting down, or walking. Showers can usually be taken after 48 hours of recovery. Baths should be avoided for one month to minimize risks.

Pain medication is prescribed to keep patients comfortable as their tissues heal. Oral antibiotics may also be given to prevent infection. Patients usually experience numbness and other unusual sensations, which steadily improve over 3-6 months.

Follow-up appointments begin a few days after surgery to monitor progress, change dressings, and check for complications. Temporary fluid drainage tubes may be removed at this time. Dr. Askari examines the sites and gives detailed instructions on wound care for optimal healing.

Sutures and staples are taken out 2-3 weeks after the surgery. At this point, patients start slowly returning to work if it does not require physical exertion. Strenuous exercises are restricted for 6 weeks.

Swelling decreases substantially after one month, so patients can return to all regular activities. Their bodies continue healing, and results keep improving over the next year. The final outcomes are usually visible after 12 months of recovery.
