Thigh Lift

Opting for a thigh lift can restore firm curves to both the inner and outer thighs. These areas often pose a cosmetic concern for patients in the form of unsightly drooping caused by hanging skin. There are numerous reasons as to why the thighs may begin to sag and lose youthful-looking definition. Weight gain or substantial weight loss may accentuate this process, as can the loss of skin elasticity due to the natural aging process. The loss of natural thigh contours can affect self-confidence and wardrobe choices. Sagging thighs can also lead to physical discomfort in the form of chafing and irritation. Thigh lift surgery can bring back youthful-looking lower body contours by reshaping lax thigh skin and removing unwanted fat pockets.

Your Thigh Lift Procedure

Your thigh lift can be performed at an outpatient surgical facility or at a local hospital, depending on your specific procedure. Incisions are placed around the thighs so that they remain hidden under clothing. Hanging thigh skin is repositioned and reshaped to promote a tighter appearance. Any excess skin can be removed to further accentuate body contours. If necessary, your thigh lift surgeon can eliminate stubborn thigh fat that has accumulated around the inner and outer thighs.

Thigh lift surgery and liposuction are often performed together to yield the dual benefits of tightening lax skin and extracting unwanted fat in one procedure. Your thigh lift can also be combined with other body sculpting methods, including a Brazilian butt lift, lower body lift, and abdominoplasty.

What To Expect After Undergoing Your Thigh Lift Surgery

Thigh lift surgery results in moderate swelling and bruising in the weeks following treatment. Exact timeframes will vary depending on your particular procedure. However, patients can expect to return to work within 1-3 weeks and may be advised to avoid any strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks for optimal recovery. Specific guidelines and timeframes can be discussed in more detail during your initial consultation.

Undergoing a thigh lift can produce long-lasting enhancements to the inner and outer thighs. Patients who have recently completed surgery can begin to see results in the coming months.
