10 Thigh and Buttock Lift
https://t.me/med1917
Incision of the Skin (Fig. 10.8)
The incision is made according to the marks made preoperatively. Note that the incision line runs for approximately two fingerwidths to the cranial side of the groin, since the scar moves caudally owing to the later traction.
The incision is made using a size 10 scalpel, radically, as far as the subcutaneous adipose tissue and may, without repositioning the patient, be continued as far as the middle third of the buttock region. If no buttock lift is indicated, the incision should be as far as possible into the buttock region so that the posterior part of the thigh is also tight­ened and modeled.
Dissection (Fig. 10.9)
When dissecting away the cutaneous/fatty flap, the assistant uses two sharp retractors and holds these under tension so that the dissection using sharp instruments can be carried out without any problems. It is rigorously dissected off as low down the thigh as the extent of the slackness demands.

Deep Dissection and Hemostasis (Fig. 10.10)
https://t.me/med1917
Deep dissection is carried out using the Metzenbaum dissecting scis­sors by pulling the cutaneous/fatty flap caudally. Bleeding is stopped using bipolar or monopolar tweezers. If dissection is carried out in the correct layer, precisely above the thigh fascia, no vessel ligatures are required.
10 Thigh and Buttock Lift
Deep dissection is taken as far as was drawn on the day before the operation (dissection area) and discussed with the patient.
Only in rare cases do we carry out a vertical incision in addition to the inguinal incision, since most patients, when given detailed information about the operation, have problems with the prospect of what is usually a visible scar. If, however, there is very loose skin as far down as the knee, this incision line cannot be avoided.
Definition of Resection Boundaries (Fig. 10.11)
The assistant pushes the area of skin that has been dissected away in a cranial direction. Similarly, the cutaneous flap is pulled upwards with a sharp retractor and surgical tweezers in a cranial direction. The thigh is rotated inwards by the assistant so as to achieve as straight a position as possible, as is it would be in the standing position. The skin incisions are made precisely in these positions so that step by step the incision points (a) correspond with the cranial inguinal incision.

Skin Resection (Fig. 10.12)
Skin resection is performed with precise monitoring of the resulting tension on the cutaneous suture. The resection boundaries are dictated by the positions of the key sutures, which are taken out again after the resection, because the cutaneous flap – and this is the most important part of the operation – needs to be anchored deeply at two points with permanent sutures in order to achieve a satisfactory long-term result.
After skin resection, residual areas of fat are removed. In the process, it should be noted that subcutaneous fat is removed in the shape of a wedge, so that later joining can be step by step without any excess material. For all lifts concerning skin and extremities, it is important to have wedge-shaped joining in the form of an equilateral triangle. This prevents formation of seromas and promotes good wound healing, and therefore scar healing.

Second Fixation Suture on the Inguinal Ligament (Fig. 10.14)
After the deep demonstration of the inguinal ligament has taken place over its whole length using dissecting scissors, the subcutaneous adi­pose sheath with the subcutaneous fascia is anchored to the inguinal ligament using 2.0 Monocryl interrupted sutures, to distribute the main weight, avoid secondary descen t of the scars and divarification of the labia majora.
Deep Wound Closure and Insertion of a Redon Drain (No. 10) (Fig. 10.15)
Before deep wound closure, the flap is trimmed and the excess fatty tissue is resected. After dissection of the subcutaneous fascia (Scarpa’s fascia), this is closed by means of deeply concealed 3.0 Monocryl inter­rupted sutures. This suture and the two fixation sutures on the inguinal ligament and the periosteum of the pubic bone ensure that little tension is placed on the final subcutaneous and cutaneous suture. This is important to ensure good healing of the scar later on. Redon drains (size10)areinserted.

Intracutaneous Skin Closure (Fig. 10.16)
https://t.me/med1917
After subcutaneous adaptationusing 3.0 Monocryl interrupted sutur es, the skin is closed without tension with a running intracutaneous 4.0 Monocryl suture. ‘Dog ears’ should be avoided and if they are present, they should be corrected at the caudal end of the incision line running into the buttock crease.
10 Thigh and Buttock Lift
If, following a thigh lift, a buttock lift is carried out, the patient is turned onto his/her stomach, but in the same position.
The intervention is completed with a 4.0 running intracutaneous Monocryl suture.
Dressing (Fig. 10.17)
Dressing is with Steri-Strips that are removed after 8 days once the wound has been checked. For the first 2 days after the operation, com­pression dressings and Cutiplast® with special girdles are used. The Redon drain can be removed on the first or second day after the opera­tion, depending on the results. Antibiotics and thrombosis proph ylaxis should be given.

Note:
If the fixation shown here appears to be too static, then it is possible to suture the thigh fascia to the deep pubic fascia for dynamic anchoring instead of fixation to the periosteum of the pubic bone.
