Thigh Lift Stockton, CA | Dr Nathan A. Kludt, MD

Understanding Thigh Lift Procedure

A thigh lift is a specialized surgical procedure designed to tighten the skin of the inner and outer thighs, addressing issues of skin sagging and improving overall body contour. The procedure focuses on removing excess skin to create a more refined, youthful lower body appearance.

Procedure Details

During a thigh lift, also known as thighplasty, surgeons make strategic incisions in the groin or along the inner thigh. The specific incision location and extent depend on individual patient anatomy and aesthetic goals. This precision allows for significant skin tightening and thigh reshaping.

Surgical Approach

• Incisions strategically placed in groin or inner thigh area
• Excess tissue carefully removed
• Remaining skin pulled upward and tightened
• Sutures used to secure new contour

Comprehensive Body Contouring Options

The Plastic Surgery Center of Stockton offers comprehensive body contouring solutions. Patients may choose to combine a thigh lift with complementary procedures like butt lifts or lower body lifts for more comprehensive results. These combined approaches can address multiple areas, creating a more harmonious body profile.

Procedure Specifics

Thigh lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility. The procedure typically takes 2-3 hours, though duration may vary based on additional treatments. Patients can expect a recovery period of approximately 2-4 weeks.

Potential Benefits

• Improved thigh contour and skin tightness
• Enhanced body proportions
• Increased self-confidence
• Reduction of skin redundancy

Important Considerations

Patients should understand that surgical scarring is an inevitable part of the thigh lift procedure. Proper scar care and following post-operative instructions are crucial for optimal healing and aesthetic outcomes.
