Aesthetic Surgery of the Medial Thigh

Abstract

Aesthetic surgery of the medial thigh is indicated in three instances: excess of skin, localized steatomery, and diffuse obesity after loss of weight. In the first two cases it is possible to limit scarring to the gluteal fold. In obese patients the functional benefits of a combination excision-suction lipectomy outweigh the disadvantages of the scarring over the medial thigh.
