The patient can return home directly after the operation. According to expert advice, bandage wrapping is recommended for the arms to stay high for several days. The stitches are removed in the 2nd week. General anesthesia is performed in leg lifting operation. An elliptical fat and skin tissue is removed by an incision extending backwards from the groin area. The upper leg skin is released and re-erected in the groin area.
