THIGH LIFT IN JEFFERSON CITY, MO | CONCANNON PLASTIC SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING THIGH LIFT SURGERY

A thigh lift, medically known as thighplasty, is a sophisticated
surgical procedure designed to improve the contour of thighs and
buttocks by tightening loose skin. This advanced body contouring
technique addresses excess, sagging skin resulting from significant
weight loss or aging.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR THIGH LIFT

 	* Patients with significant skin laxity in thigh regions
	* Individuals at stable body weight
	* Patients in good general health
	* Non-smokers with realistic surgical expectations

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE FOR INNER THIGH CONTOURING

Dr. Concannon employs a specialized approach for inner thigh lift
procedures. The technique involves strategic incision placement along
the inner thigh, extending from the groin to the knee. This method
allows comprehensive skin tightening without compromising tissue
integrity.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

The thigh lift is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under
general anesthesia or IV sedation. The surgery generally takes two to
three hours, depending on individual patient requirements. Liposuction
is often performed concurrently to enhance overall body contouring
results.

RECOVERY AND POSTOPERATIVE CARE

Patients can anticipate a recovery period of seven to ten days before
returning to work. Some bruising and swelling are normal and may
persist for up to one month. Most patients fully resume normal
activities within four to six months post-surgery.

POTENTIAL SURGICAL RISKS

 	* Potential infection at incision sites
	* Temporary skin sensation changes
	* Possible fluid accumulation
	* Risk of blood clots

MINIMIZING SURGICAL RISKS

Patients can significantly reduce potential complications by strictly
adhering to postoperative instructions and selecting an experienced,
qualified surgeon like Dr. Concannon. Comprehensive post-surgical
guidelines are provided to ensure optimal healing and results.

MEDIAL THIGH LIFT ST. LOUIS, MO | C.B. BOSWELL, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING INNER THIGH SKIN AND CONTOURING CHALLENGES

Inner thigh skin presents unique challenges in body contouring. Unlike
other body areas, this region features thinner, less elastic skin that
shows laxity and sagging at an earlier age. Traditional weight loss
and exercise methods often prove ineffective in addressing excess fat
and skin in the inner thigh region.

THIGH LIFT PROCEDURE OPTIONS

MEDIAL THIGH LIFT

The medial thigh lift specifically targets inner thigh concerns. This
procedure involves strategically placed incisions in the natural groin
crease, allowing surgeons to remove excess skin and fat while creating
a smoother, more contoured thigh profile.

COMPREHENSIVE SURGICAL APPROACH

 	* Incisions hidden in the groin crease
	* Removal of excess skin and fat deposits
	* Lifting and repositioning remaining skin

SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR ST. LOUIS PATIENTS

For patients with significant skin laxity extending to the knee, a
thighplasty might be recommended. This more extensive procedure allows
for more comprehensive skin removal and contouring, though it results
in longer surgical scars.

STAGED PROCEDURE FOR OPTIMAL RESULTS

In cases of substantial inner thigh fat, a two-stage approach may be
recommended. Initial liposuction can "de-bulk" the area, followed by a
thigh lift approximately six months later to address remaining skin
laxity.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

SURGICAL SPECIFICATIONS

 	* Surgery Duration: 1.5 to 3 hours
	* Anesthesia: General
	* Typical Hospital Stay: Outpatient or one night

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Most patients can return to work within two weeks and resume more
strenuous activities after 4-6 weeks. While results are considered
permanent, maintaining a stable weight is crucial for long-term
outcomes.

POTENTIAL RISKS

 	* Temporary swelling and bruising
	* Potential scarring
	* Possible delayed wound healing

BODY LIFT CHESTERFIELD, MO | CHARLES NATHAN, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING BODY LIFT SURGERY

Losing a significant amount of weight is a remarkable achievement that
deserves celebration. However, substantial weight loss can often leave
behind excess, hanging skin that may cause physical discomfort and
impact your confidence. Body lift procedures offer a comprehensive
solution to help patients reveal their transformed physique.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR BODY LIFT

Body lift candidates typically include healthy non-smokers who have
experienced significant weight loss and are seeking relief from:

 	* Loose, sagging skin on arms, back, chest, flanks, abdomen, thighs,
or buttocks
	* Chafing and skin irritation caused by redundant skin folds
	* Residual fat and tissue that obscure newly achieved body contours

TYPES OF BODY LIFT PROCEDURES

TUMMY TUCK (ABDOMINOPLASTY)

A tummy tuck addresses hanging abdominal skin and can repair separated
abdominal muscles. When combined with liposuction, it can help create
a more sculpted midsection.

THIGH & BUTTOCK LIFT

This procedure tightens and firms the thigh and buttock regions,
improving movement and restoring smoother body contours after
significant weight loss.

ARM LIFT

An arm lift eliminates "batwings" by removing excess skin and
reshaping upper arm tissue, revealing more defined muscle definition.

BREAST AND CHEST PROCEDURES

Depending on individual needs, patients might benefit from breast
lifts or gynecomastia surgery to restore a more youthful and
proportionate chest appearance.

BODY LIFT RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Recovery varies by procedure but generally involves wearing
compression garments and following specific post-operative
instructions. Most patients return to work within 10-14 days and can
gradually resume more strenuous activities by six weeks.

LONG-TERM EXPECTATIONS

Body lift results can be long-lasting when patients maintain a stable
weight and healthy lifestyle. Final results are typically visible 3-6
months after surgery as swelling subsides and tissues settle.

UNDERSTANDING THIGH LIFT PROCEDURES

tighter and more youthful appearance to the thighs. This procedure is
particularly beneficial for patients with excessive skin and fat
tissue resulting from significant weight loss or natural aging
processes.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

The thigh lift procedure involves removing an ellipse of skin from the
inner thigh and eliminating excess skin and fat within that specific
pattern. Depending on the patient's anatomy and desired outcome, the
incision might be extended past the knee or into the groin to achieve
optimal contouring.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

 	* Performed as an outpatient procedure
	* Conducted under general anesthesia
	* Performed at Auburn Surgery Center
	* Requires a long scar on the inside of the thigh

RECOVERY AND POST-SURGICAL EXPECTATIONS

Recovery experiences vary between patients, but most individuals feel
prepared to return to non-strenuous work within one week of surgery.
Compression garments play a crucial role in the healing process.

RECOMMENDED POST-SURGICAL CARE

	* Expect drains to be placed and typically removed within 7-10 days
	* Avoid exercise and water submersion until specifically instructed
