FAIRFAX, VA: JOSEPH MICHAELS, MD

ABOUT PANNICULECTOMY

Panniculectomy is a transformative surgical procedure designed to
remove excess hanging skin and tissue from the lower abdomen,
typically following significant weight loss. This treatment helps
patients achieve a more contoured body profile and improved physical
comfort.

UNDERSTANDING THE PROCEDURE

The surgical process involves carefully removing the hanging skin, or
panniculus, that often remains after substantial weight reduction. Dr.
Joseph Michaels performs this procedure with precision, creating
horizontal incisions to eliminate excess tissue and create smoother
body contours.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

During a panniculectomy, patients receive general anesthesia. Dr.
Michaels makes strategic incisions to remove excess skin and tissue,
then carefully closes the surgical site. The procedure typically takes
several hours and focuses on creating a smoother, more contoured
abdominal area.

post-operative instructions. Most patients can return to light
activities within 2-3 weeks and experience full recovery within 6-8

THIGH LIFT FAIRFAX, VA | HESS PLASTIC SURGERY: CHRISTOPHER L HESS, MD

UNDERSTANDING THIGH LIFT SURGERY

Thighplasty, or thigh surgery, can lift your body confidence with
firmer, shapelier thighs. A thigh lift reshapes the contour and
appearance of inner and outer thighs, creating a more proportioned
body shape.

PROCEDURE TYPES

Thigh lift surgery encompasses two primary techniques:

 	* INNER THIGH LIFT (MEDIAL THIGH LIFT):
 	* OUTER THIGH LIFT (LATERAL THIGH LIFT):

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR THIGH LIFT SURGERY

Candidates for thigh lift surgery typically include individuals who:

 	* Have disproportionate or sagging thighs resistant to diet and
exercise
	* Experienced significant weight loss resulting in loose skin
	* Have excess thigh fat due to pregnancy or genetic factors

SURGICAL APPROACH

Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Christopher L. Hess expertly
conducts thigh lift surgery to tighten skin and, if necessary, remove
fat deposits using precise liposuction techniques. The procedure aims
to create smoother skin and a better-proportioned body contour.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Thigh lift recovery typically spans 1-2 weeks, with potential
variations depending on combined procedures. While a permanent scar
will remain, Dr. Hess strategically places incisions to minimize
visibility beneath clothing. Patients can expect firmer, more toned
thighs that enhance overall body aesthetics.

COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

Thigh lift surgery can be effectively combined with other body
contouring procedures, such as:

 	* Tummy Tuck
	* Liposuction
