Thigh lift (femoroplasty)
Thigh lift (femoroplasty) is a plastic surgery procedure aimed at removing excess skin and fat deposits in the thigh area. The procedure helps restore skin firmness, improve leg contours, and eliminate tissue sagging, especially after significant weight loss or age-related changes.
When is a thigh lift recommended?
- After rapid weight loss, when the skin loses elasticity and skin folds form.
- With age-related changes causing sagging of the inner thigh skin.
- If there is excess localized fat that does not respond to physical exercise.
- When aesthetic correction of thigh shape is required.
How is the surgery performed?
- Surgeon consultation – the correction method is determined and the surgical technique is selected.
- Anesthesia – the procedure is performed under general anesthesia.
- Removal of excess skin and fat – the surgeon makes incisions along the inner or outer thigh surface.
- Tissue fixation and contour modeling – the skin is tightened to create a firmer, more contoured silhouette.
- Rehabilitation – the patient wears compression garments and healing is closely monitored.
Types of femoroplasty
- Inner thigh lift – correction of sagging skin on the inner thigh surface.
- Outer thigh lift – elimination of tissue laxity on the outer thigh.
- Circumferential thigh lift – comprehensive correction of all thigh areas.
- Combined thigh lift – femoroplasty combined with liposuction.
