Aging can cause a toll on bodies, including the thighs. If you are experiencing the effects of sagging skin, cellulite, or loose tissue, you may benefit from this procedure. It can also benefit those who have lost a large amount of weight who wish to obtain toned thighs, or those whose clothes do not fit properly due to heavy thighs. A consultation with one of our board certified plastic surgeons can help to determine which type of procedure is right for you. [/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”The Procedure”]
Patients who are unhappy with the appearance of their thighs may benefit from these procedures:
Inner Thigh Liposuction
At our practice, we perform tumescent liposuction to the thighs for effective results. There is minimal scarring, minimal downtime, and a drastic improvement to the silhouette.
Inner Thigh Lift
This option can benefit individuals with excess loose skin or fat in the upper thighs. This procedure is done by creating an incision stretching from the back of the mid-thigh to the front, creating a crescent shape. This allows the surgeon to remove excess skin and fat, for a slimmer thigh appearance. Any scarring can generally be hidden beneath clothing.
Extended Inner Thigh Lift
Patients who have extremely loose skin, muscles, and fat on their thighs can often benefit from an this lift. The procedure is an extended version of the inner thigh lift, removing significantly more excess fat and skin. Scars are often T-shaped or L-shaped rather than crescent-shaped, but can still commonly be concealed with clothing.[/accordion-item]

Following a thigh lift, patients will experience bruising, swelling, and soreness. Prescribed pain medication can help to relieve any discomfort. It is important to follow your surgeon’s specific recovery instructions to ensure optimal outcomes. During the first two weeks, patients should stick to light activities. Driving and walking for exercise can be resumed after two or three weeks. Patients who maintain a healthy lifestyle should see long-lasting results.[/accordion-item]
