Due to losing a lot of weight or simply due to ageing, the skin of the thighs loses its elasticity. This causes excess and sagging skin on the inner thighs. Exercising can make the thighs look firmer again, but it will not improve the sagging skin. With a thigh lift, the skin on the thighs can be re-tightened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The doctor will ask general questions about your health and possible medication. In consultation with the plastic surgeon, it will be determined whether a thigh lift is the ideal procedure for you and you will be informed about the expected result. If necessary, liposuction of the entire medial thigh and knee or of the back of the buttocks will be recommended. Depending on your specific problem, the procedure will be explained step by step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before the procedure, a wedge shape is symmetrically drawn on the inner side of each thigh or at the level of the buttocks. The wedge shape consisting of fat and skin is removed after liposuction of the medial thighs. The scar is located at the level of the groin or at the level of the posterior buttock crease. In case of extreme excess skin on the medial thigh, an additional wedge is cut away that runs from the top of the groin to the knee. In this case, one gets a T-shaped scar (one in the groin, and one running from the groin to the knee).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You may leave the clinic as early as the same day as the operation. This procedure causes little pain. There are no drains. Any discomfort in the first 24 hours is controlled with the classic painkillers such as paracetamol and ibuprofen. During the first two weeks, sitting and\/or walking may be difficult because the skin is so tightened. The ankles may be temporarily a bit swollen. You may also experience some bruising at first. You will not be able to work for about a week. After one week, you will come for a check-up and the bandage will be renewed.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Waarom een dijlift? Door veel af te vallen of gewoon door het ouder worden verliest de huid van de dijen haar elasticiteit. Dit veroorzaakt overtollige en verslapte huid aan de binnenkant van de dijen. Sporten kan de dijen er weer steviger doen uitzien, maar de verslapping van de huid zal hierdoor niet verbeteren.
