Thigh Lift
Description
A thigh lift is a surgical procedure that aims to reshape and tighten the thighs by reducing excess skin and fat. The procedure can be designed to address the inner thighs, outer thighs, or both based on the unique needs and desired results of the individual patient. It often involves an incision in the groin area, and in some cases, it might extend downward wrapping around the back of the thigh. Excessive skin and tissue are removed, and the remaining skin is tightened to provide an improved leg contour and a more youthful appearance. Thigh lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia. Postoperative recovery from a thigh lift may involve a short hospital stay. It is also typical for patients to wear a compression garment to minimize swelling and support the newly shaped thigh tissues. Pain, bruising and swelling are normal after thigh lift surgery, and generally, surgeons prescribe medication to manage postoperative discomfort. It's essential to rest and avoid much leg movements following the surgery. Most patients return to daily non-strenuous activities within one to two weeks and fully recover within four to six weeks. The result is better proportional contours of the thighs and lower body. Before deciding on a thigh lift, one should discuss the benefits, risks, and expectations with a certified plastic surgeon.
