Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery (Thighplasty)

A thigh lift, medically known as thighplasty, is a sophisticated body contouring procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper legs. The primary goal is to create a more sculpted and proportionate leg appearance, particularly for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss.

Reasons for Considering a Thigh Lift

After substantial weight loss, skin often fails to retract, leaving patients with loose, hanging skin that obscures the natural leg contours. This excess skin cannot be effectively addressed through diet or exercise alone. Thigh lift surgery offers a comprehensive solution to restore leg aesthetics and enhance body proportions.

Key Characteristics of Thigh Lift Procedures

  • Removes excess skin and fat
  • Improves leg contours and proportions
  • Different from standard liposuction
  • Customized surgical approach

Ideal Candidates for Thigh Lift Surgery

Determining candidacy for a thigh lift involves evaluating several critical factors. Ideal candidates typically have:

  • Stable weight near their ideal body weight
  • Good overall health
  • No medical conditions that impair healing
  • Commitment to maintaining a healthy lifestyle

Surgical Approach and Technique

Thigh lift surgery is an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. Board-certified plastic surgeons strategically place incisions to minimize visible scarring while removing excess skin and fat. The technique may involve combining liposuction to achieve optimal leg contouring.

Recovery and Results

Recovery varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Patients receive a compression garment to manage swelling and support healing. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle is crucial for preserving long-term surgical results.

Potential Procedure Combinations

Patients may combine thigh lift surgery with other body contouring procedures like butt lifts or tummy tucks to achieve comprehensive aesthetic goals. A personalized consultation helps determine the most effective treatment plan.

My surgery has not come out as promised. I wanted a tummy tuck and a flat stomach. That has not occurred. At my last visit I was told, "There is nothing more we can do".

My surgery was July 2022 and I purposely waited a year to provide feedback. From my first meeting with Dr. Singh to my last follow up visit, which I just had today, I have been impressed with every phase…consultation, surgery, follow up visits and lastly, the results! I only planned to have a scar revision done under my arm. During the consultation, Dr. Singh suggested a few things that would make my overall scar better and balance out that area. Dr. Singh is the third plastic surgeon that has operated on this area under my arm and she is the first doctor that has holistically looked at the entire area and provided an awesome solution. If you are looking for a plastic surgeon who is an expert at her craft and is still humble enough to listen to what matters to you, then Dr. Singh is your doctor. I also must mention her bedside manner is second to none.

I came to Dr. Singh disfigured, dejected, and insecure from a botched post-mastectomy reconstruction done by another surgeon. Most doctors did not want to help due to the complications that arise from fixing another surgeon's work, and I was thrilled and humbled when Dr. Singh took my case. Her attention to detail and bedside manner is unparalleled, and she provided results that far exceeded my expections. I would give her 10 stars if I could!
