The leg and buttock relaxation are almost synonymous with weight loss and age. It remains the most difficult and common problem.

In women, the rectification of this problem is more common and imperative.

The surgical treatment depends on the degree of the relaxation. In medium degree of relaxation, the surgeon treats the problem with incisions in the thigh root, so as these incisions would be hidden under the underwear. In heavier cases the surgeon must add incisions along the inner thigh area. These incisions aim to remove the excess of the skin. The results are better than the previous situation, but the plastic surgeon may not be able to maintain the lower middle part of the thigh after a few months, as well as the position of the scar of the root of the thigh, that may appear from the underwear. There are techniques being developed that maintain the result and reconstruct the knee relaxation. Very good results are expected with the use of special grids that maintain the result. These grids can be used to mild relaxations as well without incisions.

For the surgical operation that has been chosen, the patient should come foodless, so as to be pre-operationally checked. Next, he will undergo a leg surgery, which will last from 2 to 4 hours depending on the problem and the selected technique, always under general anesthesia. The technique to be chosen may not present any difficulties to the surgeon; it takes though a great amount of time. Implications in this type of operation are not expected and do not threaten the life of the patient more than other operations. In this case, the patient must stay in the hospital for a day and wear a long stay for 20 days that is up to the patient’s knees. The first trauma change is made the second post operational day, and after the fourth day the patient can make a shower, that should be on a daily basis. The patient’s mobility is deteriorated and the post-operational course is not as painless as e.g. the breast surgery. The patient should return to his previous activities after approximately 15 days.

Mild relaxations (without skin excess) can be confronted with the special grids, which can only amend the knee area. The incisions are small, (5-7 cm) in the root of the thigh and in the frontal iliac spine.

The use of aspirin for 4 days before the operation is forbidden.
