Dave Stringham, the President of LookingYourBest.com writes about plastic surgery in Santa Monica, California and cosmetic surgery procedures such as santa monica thigh and buttock lift , breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, tummy tuck, facelift, liposuction, and arm lift.
Patients who desire a thigh and buttock lift usually are seeking to reduce the size of their buttocks or lower trunk area.
This plastic surgery procedure is best for individuals who are unable to reduce their size through exercise and dieting. Such factors may affect an individual's confidence, leading them to seek their own thigh and buttock lift.
The procedure can help such individuals restore a thinner and fitter looking contour to their bodies. To better match the body of the patient, the buttocks are made smaller.
Plastic surgeon accomplishes this by removing excess fat and skin in the thigh and buttock and buttock areas and tightening the underlying muscle tissues. This not only helps to restore the physical appearance of the patient, but also restores self-confidence and respect to the patient.
The procedure is a very individualized procedure in which your goals should be realistically determined and discussed with your surgeon. Together you will determine what specific procedures will be performed.
The surgery is often performed along with other surgeries such as liposuction so that the hips can be changed to match the smaller area. Once your goals have been determined you will set a date for this procedure and will be given instructions about how to prepare.
When the date for your thigh and buttock lift in Santa Monica has arrived, you should plan on the surgery taking several hours or more depending on which procedures you are having performed.
Two surgeries are available, the buttock lift and full thigh or the buttock lift and partial thigh for patients who only choose to reduce the thighs and buttocks.
The physician will create a small incision that is placed to be as inconspicuous as possible and then will remove excess fat and skin. The muscles will then be tightened and set into place.
The procedure will remove fat and excess skin from the buttocks, thighs, and can also be done in conjunction with the lower back and hips. Because the surgery affects many different areas, it is typically a lengthy procedure taking several hours and other procedures performed in conjunction with the thigh and buttock lift should generally be scheduled on a separate day.
The surgery area may experience some pain and swelling for the first few days after the procedure. Your plastic surgeon will likely advise you on other precautions to take following the surgery.
Several weeks recovery time is usual and exercise will often help speed the recovery process after the initial recovery period. All procedures are performed with anesthesia to minimize any discomfort or pain.
Plastic surgeon can help you to achieve your goals relating to plastic surgery including procedures such as face lifts, breast augmentation, nose jobs, ear pinning, liposuction, and tummy tucks.
To schedule an appointment or to learn more about a thigh and buttock lift, please contact your plastic surgeon.
