Thigh Lift Fairfax, VA | Hess Plastic Surgery: Christopher L Hess, MD

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

Thighplasty, or thigh surgery, can lift your body confidence with firmer, shapelier thighs. A thigh lift reshapes the contour and appearance of inner and outer thighs, creating a more proportioned body shape.

Procedure Types

Thigh lift surgery encompasses two primary techniques:

• Inner Thigh Lift (Medial Thigh Lift):
• Outer Thigh Lift (Lateral Thigh Lift):

Ideal Candidates for Thigh Lift Surgery

Candidates for thigh lift surgery typically include individuals who:

• Have disproportionate or sagging thighs resistant to diet and exercise
• Experienced significant weight loss resulting in loose skin
• Have excess thigh fat due to pregnancy or genetic factors

Surgical Approach

Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Christopher L. Hess expertly conducts thigh lift surgery to tighten skin and, if necessary, remove fat deposits using precise liposuction techniques. The procedure aims to create smoother skin and a better-proportioned body contour.

Recovery and Results

Thigh lift recovery typically spans 1-2 weeks, with potential variations depending on combined procedures. While a permanent scar will remain, Dr. Hess strategically places incisions to minimize visibility beneath clothing. Patients can expect firmer, more toned thighs that enhance overall body aesthetics.

Complementary Procedures

Thigh lift surgery can be effectively combined with other body contouring procedures, such as:

• Tummy Tuck
• Liposuction
• Mommy Makeover
• Arm Lift
