Thigh lift surgery tightens and reshapes the thigh by removing loose skin and fatty tissue. It can help to reduce bulges of the inner or outer thigh and improve overall contour. If you are having trouble achieving the thigh shape you want with exercise or weight loss, a thigh lift may be appropriate for you. In some cases, liposuction alone can sufficiently refine the thigh. However, when there is excess sagging skin, as is often the case with significant weight loss, thigh lift surgery is needed. At Advance Laser and Cosmetic Plastic Surgery a variety of techniques are available to customize the treatment to the specific area which bothers you most, whether it be the inner thigh, outer thigh, or both.
Some of the most popular reasons that patients pursue a thigh lift procedure are:
During your consultation with Dr. Roham, he will discuss what your unique surgical procedure will look like. This includes deciding which type of incision will best suit your goals and anatomy. The most common types of thigh lift incisions are:
Dr. Roham will also choose an incision based on the best locations for concealment with clothing or the natural contours of your body. Dr. Roham will also thoroughly discuss your recovery and care steps to take during that time so that you understand what to expect.
Dr. Roham will take the time to understand your specific concerns and help guide you to the procedure best suited to your needs because every surgery is designed to treat your unique concerns. This surgery is generally performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. After anesthesia is administered, an incision is made to allow Dr. Roham to remove loose tissue and redrape the remaining tissue in a higher, more youthful position. Once this is completed, the incisions are closed with absorbable sutures that remain under the skin and do not need to be removed. If liposuction is used as a supplement to any of the above techniques to further refine the result, this can be done without any additional incisions.
The recovery period after a thigh lift depends on the extent of your procedure. As with most body procedures, a restful week is advised. Light activity can be done on the day following your surgery. Most patients experience some discomfort after a thigh lift, but this is usually controlled with medications prescribed by Dr. Roham. You can generally resume normal activities 2-3 weeks after surgery, though you may be able to return to work before this depending on the nature of your job. Wearing a compression garment will be important during your recovery to help reduce fluid retention and shape your new curves. You will be given detailed before-and-after surgery instructions, and Dr. Roham will always be available to answer any questions you may have along the way.
A thigh lift improves the body’s contour resulting in a firmer appearance. You’ll get immediate results such as your thighs and buttocks will appear firmer.
We use a technique consisting of a small incision in the groin area extending downward and grasping onto the back of the thighs. The tissue is reshaped and tightened.
The procedure begins with removing excess fat and skin from the inner and outer thighs and buttocks. Then tightening the remainder of the skin resulting in a natural appearance.
The peak results appear one month after the procedure.
