What is a Thigh Lift?

A thigh lift, or thighplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to improve the proportionality of the thighs in relation to the abdomen, buttocks, and legs. The surgical technique involves tightening skin to reduce drooping on the inner and outer thighs, creating a more sculpted and toned appearance.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Thigh Lift Surgery?

Potential candidates for thigh lift surgery typically meet the following criteria:

• In overall good physical and mental health
• Non-smoker
• Maintain realistic expectations about the procedure
• Desire to remove excess skin around the waistline
• Within 15 pounds of ideal body weight

Benefits of Thigh Lift Surgery

Younger Appearance

Thigh lift surgery can restore firmer, more youthful-looking legs when traditional exercise fails to improve skin elasticity and contour.

Enhanced Comfort and Mobility

The procedure eliminates thigh chafing and can improve exercise performance by reducing excess skin and improving leg mobility.

Types of Thigh Lift Procedures

Mini-Anterior Thigh Lift

Targets and lifts loose skin on the upper inner thigh, providing precise contouring and skin tightening.

Medial Thigh Lift

Treats excess skin and fat on the inner thigh, sculpting the area from the groin to the knee for a more streamlined appearance.

Lateral Thigh Lift

Removes excess fat and skin on the outer thigh, enhancing the contours of the outer thighs and buttocks region.

Recovery and Aftercare

Patients can expect some bruising and swelling for up to one month following the procedure. Typical recovery involves:

• 2-3 weeks off work
• Wearing compression garments
• Avoiding strenuous activities for 6 weeks
• Following specific post-operative care instructions

Potential Risks and Considerations

Like all surgical procedures, thigh lift surgery carries potential risks including:

• Anesthesia complications
