Thighs

A Cruroplasty (or a Thigh Lift) is the procedure for treating sagging skin and the accumulation of fatty tissue in the inner thigh. Alterations in weight, dramatic weight loss and genetic characteristics are the main causes of sagging skin and the accumulation of fat in the thighs.

Patients with a mild accumulation of fat and toned skin do not need a cruroplasty. In these cases, liposuction of the thighs will effectively provide a harmonious result. However, with patients who have a degree of skin sagging, it is often necessary to perform a thigh lift, combined with liposuction. In the majority of these cases, the procedure results in a scar in the groin area and along the inner thigh. In some cases, where there is little sagging, patients may benefit from a cruroplasty with reduced scarring, located only in the groove between the perineum and the thigh.

This may be performed in conjunction with other surgical procedures, such as an abdominoplasty, mammoplasty, liposculpture, etc.
