Abstract

The abdomino-cruroplasty is the result of a combination of an abdominoplasty (or "mini-lift" as described by French authors) and a reduction plasty of the thighs. Our prime objective is the one-stage correction of the cutaneous and fatty excess of both the abdomen and the thighs with a single scar hidden in the skin folds; we also obtain an equilibration of "up" and "down" forces to avoid deformation of the pubic region. The technical points are explained.
