Information about Leg Lift Surgery
Leg Lift Surgery
As a result of advancing age and frequent weight gain and loss, both relaxation and sagging may occur on the inner face of many women’s legs in general. Especially when skirts or clothes are worn, sweating and diaper rash may occur as a result of the inner faces of the legs rubbing against each other during walking. In addition to all these, these sagging and loosening on the inner face of the legs create an aesthetically unpleasant appearance. These problems can be corrected with leg lift surgeries.
To Whom Can Leg Lift Surgery Be Performed?
Each of the people who want to correct the appearance of sagging or looseness in their legs is an ideal candidate for leg lifting, that is, thigh lift surgery. However, there are some criteria set for leg lift surgery. These criteria can be briefly listed as follows;
- Soft tissue and sagging in the legs.
- Completion of weight loss stages or the patient’s ideal weight. Otherwise, sagging may occur again in cases of weight loss.
- The psychological health of the people who want to have the operation is good.
- There is no harm for this operation in the past health history and examination findings made by the physicians.
What are the Types of Leg Lift Surgery?
Leg lift surgery is performed with different methods and special techniques according to the needs of the patients. Depending on the type of deformation in the area needed in the leg lift operation, the size, location and type of incisions may vary. At this point, plastic surgeons choose the technique for the needs of the patients. In this context, the types of leg lift surgery are briefly as follows;
Upper leg stretching; In upper leg lift surgery, the parts where the legs meet the groin are targeted. Incisions are made on the insides of the thigh, at the junction with the groin.
Mini leg lift; It is known as a form of inner leg lift operation performed with shorter incision. Recovery time is also shorter.
Internal leg stretching; Reduces excess skin and fat on the upper part of the inner leg. It is a technique designed for patients who do not like the shape of their legs or who complain of sagging skin due to weight loss. In internal leg lift surgery, incisions are made so that the scars remain on the inner parts of the leg.
What should I pay attention to before leg lift surgery?
Quitting smoking and drinking for a certain period of time both before and after surgery.
- Not to use blood thinners or medications and supplements that reduce the healing of wounds before surgery.
- There should be no infection in the area where the procedure will be performed.
- Pay attention to nutrition and sleep well the night before the operation and rest well.
Things to Consider After Leg Lift Surgery
Immediately after the leg lift operation, the area is closed with appropriate dressing. In some cases, drains may be placed to prevent blood or fluid accumulation. At the same time, compression clothing is worn to prevent blood or fluid accumulation.
Painkillers to be given after the operation are extremely useful.
In order not to increase the risk of bleeding before and after leg lift surgery, it is necessary to avoid the use of aspirin or painkillers with blood thinning properties at least 2 days in advance.
Sleep greatly helps the body recover after leg lift surgery.
Not to stretch the leg area as much as possible and to avoid excessive movements.
No stairs should be climbed after the operation.
Do not squat or do strenuous activities. However, short-term walks can be taken inside the house to maintain blood circulation in a healthy way.
