THIGH LIFT THOUSAND OAKS, CA | ZOL KRYGER, M.D.

UNDERSTANDING THIGH LIFT SURGERY

A thigh lift is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess,
sagging skin from the inner thighs. This transformative surgery is
most commonly performed for patients who have experienced significant
weight loss and are left with loose, hanging skin that cannot be
addressed through diet and exercise.

CANDIDATE EVALUATION

Ideal candidates for a thigh lift include:

 	* Individuals with excess, loose skin on the inner thighs
	* Patients who have undergone massive weight loss
	* Those with stable body weight for at least six months

SURGICAL APPROACH

The Kryger Institute of Plastic Surgery offers two primary thigh lift
techniques:

 	* Minimal lift with an incision in the groin crease
	* Extensive lift with incisions extending along the inner thigh or
front of the thigh

PROCEDURE DETAILS FOR THOUSAND OAKS PATIENTS

Thigh lift surgery typically takes approximately two hours and is
performed under general anesthesia. The precise surgical approach
depends on the amount of skin removal required and the patient's
individual anatomy.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect some swelling and bruising, which peaks around 48
hours after surgery and gradually diminishes. Most individuals return
to work within two weeks, with full recovery taking several months.

SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS IN THOUSAND OAKS

The Kryger Institute emphasizes patient safety and personalized care.
Factors such as body mass index (BMI), smoking status, and overall
health are carefully evaluated to minimize surgical risks.

INSURANCE AND FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS

Thigh lift procedures are rarely covered by insurance, except in
specific medical necessity cases for massive weight loss patients. The
patient care coordinator can assist with understanding potential
coverage options.

SCARRING AND LONG-TERM RESULTS

While scarring is an inevitable aspect of surgery, the experienced
surgeons at the Kryger Institute utilize advanced techniques to
minimize and optimize scar appearance. Patients can expect scars to
fade and soften over 1-2 years.
