About Male Medial (Inner)Thigh Lift

You may be a candidate for a Inner Thigh Lift procedure if you have experienced a loss of skin elasticity of the thigh, hip, or buttock areas. You may also desire this procedure if your skin in the thigh area is saggy, has an orange peel, flabby and/or dimpled appearance. The procedure may also be indicated if your thigh appearance improves dramatically when you lift the lax skin. If you are self-conscious about your lower body appearance you may also want to look into this procedure. The procedure is intended to produce tighter, more attractive thigh and buttock skin with improved contours. It is also intended to decrease irregularities in skin surface.

Inner Thigh lift surgery removes excess skin and fat from your  inner thighs. The goal of the procedure is to improve the appearance of your thighs by removing the "dimpled look" produced by cellulite. In most cases the procedure is more effective for the front and side thigh areas, less effective for the back and inside areas. The incision does leave a scar at the hip, but it fades in time and can be hidden by a bathing suit.

The surgery begins with an incision in the groin area, near the hip. After the incision is made, Dr. Broujerdi separates the skin on your thigh from the fat and muscle below by pulling the flap of skin upwards. Then, he removes the excess skin and stretches the remaining skin back in place. Additionally Dr. Broujerdi can perform Liposuction of the thighs at the same time to create a skinner and smoother contour to the thighs.  

When the procedure is complete, Dr. Broujerdi closes the incisions with small stitches and covers them with bandages. A small drainage tube may be inserted in your skin for several days to drain excess fluid from the surgery.

You are a good candidate for Inner Thigh Lift procedure if:

• You  are or have become physically healthy after weight loss
• You have a stable weight for several months
• You have realistic expectations
• You are a non-smoker
• You are bothered by the feeling that your thighs are hanging and touching
• You are willing to go through some downtime
• You have made a permanent change in lifestyle

Your surgery will be preformed as an outpatient surgery, 23 hours or longer admission at an accredited ambulatory surgical center or hospital. Dr. Broujerdi prefers patients to spend at least one night at a private nursing facility hotel in Beverly Hills or in the hospital depending on your health status. This will be determined by Dr. Broujerdi and your primary care physician. Our professional office staff will assist you with post surgical care information.  You should expect a minimum of two weeks of down time after this procedure, some patient will require longer healing period. You should stay away from strenuous activity for several months after your surgery to allow complete healing internally as well as externally.
