A thigh lift is a surgical procedure to reshape the thighs by removing excess skin and fat and smoothing the contour of the thighs. If fitness and weight control efforts have not achieved your goals for a body that is firmer, more youthful-looking and more proportionate to your overall body image, a surgical lift may be right for you.
There are several techniques used in a Thigh Lift procedure including a small incision in the groin area, extending downward and wrapping around the back of the thigh. The underlying tissue is then reshaped and tightened, skin will be reduced and re-draped resulting in a more proportionate and smoother body contour. You may be a candidate for a minimal incision medial thigh lift that simply involves an incision in the groin area. Your surgeon will help you determine which is more appropriate.
Small thin tubes will be placed under the skin to allow excess fluid to drain from the wound. You may be required to wear a compression garment following your surgery to minimize swelling and support your new contours as you heal. Patients sometimes report minor pain which can be treated with oral medication. While complications are rare, patients can minimize the risk of potential problems by carefully following the post-operative direction given after surgery to ensure a successful recovery.
