THIGH LIFT EDINA, MN | DAVID F. RUEBECK, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING THIGH LIFT SURGERY

Thigh lift surgery is a specialized body contouring procedure designed
to improve the appearance of the inner thighs by removing excess skin
and fat tissue. Patients typically seek this procedure after
significant weight loss, which can result in loose, sagging skin in
the inner thigh region.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

 	* Performed under general anesthesia
	* Same-day discharge
	* Addresses excess skin and fat in inner thigh area

RECOVERY AND HEALING

Recovery from thigh lift surgery involves a structured timeline for
healing and return to normal activities. Most patients experience the
following recovery progression:

 	* 7-10 days: Majority of initial discomfort subsides
	* 3-6 weeks: Clearance to resume vigorous exercise
	* 6-12 months: Surgical scar maturation

SURGICAL APPROACH

The procedure involves placing a long, curved scar at the upper aspect
of the inner thighs. This strategic placement helps minimize visible
scarring while effectively addressing skin laxity and contour
irregularities.

CANDIDATE CONSIDERATIONS

Ideal candidates for thigh lift surgery should be in overall good
health and currently non-smokers. A comprehensive consultation and
examination will help determine individual suitability for the
procedure.

THIGH LIFT WAYZATA, MN | DR. RALPH W. BASHIOUM, MD

UNDERSTANDING THIGH LIFT SURGERY

Thigh lift surgery, also known as dermatolipectomy, is a specialized
cosmetic procedure designed to reduce sagging and improve the
appearance of thighs. Particularly beneficial for individuals
experiencing skin laxity after significant weight loss or due to
aging, this procedure combines liposuction and skin removal
techniques.

Dr. Bashioum's thigh lift procedure involves a comprehensive four-step
approach:

 	* Detailed preoperative planning and marking

should understand that complete symmetry is not guaranteed, and some
asymmetry is normal.

IMPORTANT SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS

	* Results can be maintained with stable weight
	* Multiple procedures may be combined for enhanced results

RISKS AND RECOVERY
