Features of femoroplasty
This procedure is performed in various areas, including the inner and outer thighs, as well as the area around the knee joints. Main indications:
- Significant changes in the thigh area due to weight loss
- Problems with skin structure and elasticity caused by aging (sagging legs)
- Friction and discomfort caused by excess skin folds
- Unsuccessful liposuction leading to sagging skin
- Manifestations of cellulite, formation of ptosis and “ears” on the hips
Surgery to tighten loose skin on the legs allows you to achieve not only an aesthetic effect. In some cases, it helps to significantly improve walking comfort - in particular, femoroplasty helps improve the general condition of the skin.
Femoroplasty techniques
Femoroplasty requires careful diagnosis and planning.
Depending on the characteristics of a particular clinical case, the surgeon offers various thigh lift techniques.
Main types of femoroplasty:
- Internal cut method This approach is appropriate when it is necessary to eliminate moderate skin ptosis on the inner thigh.
- Spiral technique This is a more radical correction method. With this technique, significant excess skin can be effectively eliminated by redistributing the tissue around the thigh.
- Vertical lift This technique is preferable for cases with pronounced sagging skin, especially in the inner thigh area.
- Combined approach Combining elements of various techniques, it is used to solve particularly complex or voluminous problems - for example, to eliminate ptosis (pathology is drooping or sagging skin on the thighs).
General information about the procedure
Preoperative preparation
Preparation for a thigh lift includes complex diagnostic procedures. This stage is extremely important because it ensures the safety of the surgical intervention and contributes to a faster recovery after it.
In order to identify diseases that can affect the surgical process and subsequent recovery, the doctor refers the patient to:
- Clinical and biochemical blood tests
- Urine analysis
To obtain a complete picture of the state of the cardiovascular system, the patient is prescribed an ECG, CT scan or chest x-ray. Additionally, ultrasound examination of blood vessels is performed. This is especially important to identify risks associated with anesthesia and the surgery itself. It is also recommended to consult with a therapist and (if necessary) a cardiologist and phlebologist.
One of the key stages of preparation for surgery is the purchase of compression garments. Wearing it helps reduce the risk of thrombosis during the rehabilitation stage.
All medical reports and recommendations must be in writing, as they serve as official confirmation of readiness for surgery. If a person is taking any medications, be sure to inform the doctor. He will tell you whether you can drink them before the intervention and during rehabilitation.
