Thighplasty Tightens Sagging Thighs
A thighplasty, or thigh lift surgery lifts and recontours saggy and dimpled thigh skin. Many requests for thighplasty surgery come from people who have excess skin after a dramatic weight loss, or from aging. Thigh lift surgery removes excess fat and skin from the inner and outer thighs to create a tighter, firmer, more toned appearance.
Thighplasty is often paired with liposuction to remove any excess fatty deposits that haven’t been shed after dieting and exercise. The surface of the thigh should be smooth after the liposuction is complete.
After the fat is removed, the skin on the thigh is tightened and surgically removed. Any resulting scars are typically hidden in natural creases in the body. After a period of time, these scars often fade until they are barely noticeable.
What is the recovery time for Thigh Lift?
Patients return home with a compression garment to assist with swelling and skin tightening
Most patients are comfortable returning to work about 1-2 weeks into the Thighplasty recovery period
Strenuous activity such as exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for about 4-6 weeks following surgery.
What else can I combine Thigh Lift with?
Thigh Lift Surgery can be combined with other plastic surgery procedures for enhanced results, with fewer risks. Buttocks Lifts, Tummy tucks, Liposuction, and even Breast Lifts are the most requested surgeries used in combination with Thigh Lift Surgery.
