Skin removal surgeries are some of the most commonly performed and combined plastic surgeries. When people lose a significant amount of weight, it does not come off from one area, it comes off from multiple. Thus, this leaves multiple areas of the body with extra skin. Two areas commonly affected by this are the abdomen and thighs. This leads many patients to ask, “Can I get a tummy tuck and inner thigh lift at the same time?”
A combined tummy tuck thigh lift procedure can address sagging skin in both the midsection and upper legs during the same surgical session. Surgeons often tailor this approach to each patient’s unique anatomy and goals, potentially shortening overall recovery time and providing more comprehensive body contouring results with remarkable efficiency.

Yes, patients who are good candidates for one of the procedures are often good candidates for combining both. However, it should be noted that not all patients can undergo a combined procedure due to the extended surgical time. In this case, Dr. Sajan may recommend splitting the surgeries into separate sessions.
Otherwise, if a patient can undergo a longer surgical session, combining the procedures can actually lead to a quicker recovery and reduce the risk of anesthesia since only going under general anesthesia once. Dr. Sajan can determine if you are a good candidate for a tummy tuck with a thigh lift.
