Advanced Thigh Lift in Tulsa, OK | Tulsa Surgical Arts

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

Weight loss represents a significant personal achievement, but sometimes excess skin can remain a challenge. For individuals in Tulsa, OK who have undergone substantial weight loss, a thigh lift offers a transformative surgical solution to remove loose skin and create a more refined leg contour.

Benefits of Thigh Lift Surgery

Excess skin on the thighs can create multiple challenges, including:

• Persistent skin chafing
• Potential skin rash development
• Difficulty wearing form-fitting clothing
• Reduced self-confidence

Who Can Benefit from Thighplasty?

Thigh lift surgery is ideal for patients who have:

• Lost over 100 pounds
• Experienced significant weight fluctuations
• Developed loose or sagging skin due to aging
• Encountered skin-related complications from weight changes

Surgical Procedure Details

At Tulsa Surgical Arts, thigh lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The surgical approach involves carefully placed incisions to minimize visible scarring while effectively removing excess skin and reshaping the thigh area.

Surgical Technique

Dr. Cuzalina employs a precise surgical technique that typically includes:

• Strategic incision placement in natural body creases
• Targeted liposuction to eliminate fat pockets
• Precise skin trimming and tightening
• Secure suturing for optimal healing

Recovery and Expectations

Thigh lift surgery typically requires 2-3 hours and involves a recovery period of approximately 6-8 weeks. Patients can expect some initial discomfort, bruising, and swelling, with gradual improvement over time.

Long-Term Results

Most patients experience long-lasting results when maintaining a stable weight and following a healthy lifestyle. While the procedure cannot permanently halt skin aging, it can significantly improve thigh contour and personal confidence.

Complementary Procedures

Tulsa Surgical Arts often recommends combining thigh lift surgery with complementary body contouring procedures for comprehensive transformation, such as lower body lift or liposuction.
