Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

Thigh lift surgery is a specialized plastic surgery procedure designed to reshape and contour the thighs by removing excess skin and fat. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Mune Gowda offers this transformative procedure at his Troy, Michigan practice.

Procedure Overview

Thigh lift surgery, or thighplasty, targets loose, sagging skin typically resulting from significant weight loss. The procedure aims to:

• Eliminate excess skin and fat
• Improve thigh contours
• Reduce skin chafing and discomfort
• Create smoother, more proportionate lower body aesthetics

Types of Thigh Lift Approaches

Dr. Gowda offers multiple thigh lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Inner Thigh Lift: Targets inner thigh skin and contours
• Outer Thigh Lift: Addresses outer thigh skin laxity
• Belt Lipectomy: Comprehensive skin tightening around the body

Surgical Procedure Details

Thigh lift surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. The plastic surgeon carefully marks and removes excess skin, creating a more taut and youthful appearance. While scarring is inevitable, most patients find the improved contours well worth the surgical marks.

Complementary Procedures

Thigh lifts can be combined with complementary procedures such as liposuction to enhance overall body contouring results. Dr. Gowda evaluates each patient's unique anatomy to recommend the most effective surgical approach.

Ideal Candidates

Patients considering thigh lift surgery typically include individuals who have:

• Experienced significant weight loss
• Undergone bariatric surgery
• Loose, sagging thigh skin
• Desire improved lower body aesthetics
