Thigh lift surgery reshapes the thighs by reducing excess skin, and in some cases fat, resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs and lower body. If fitness and weight loss 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.
Treating the outer thigh generally requires an incision from the natural lower crease of the buttocks extending forward, hidden under a modest bikini brief. Treating the inner thigh requires an incision in the groin area that may extend downward. If liposuction is involved, this can be accomplished without additional incisions.
Generally outpatient, under general anesthesia, a thigh lift may require an overnight stay when combined with other procedures.
Results can be long-term, but weight loss/gain or pregnancy may alter your appearance.
