What is a thigh lift?


Refined Contours

A thigh lift, or thighplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to permanently reduce excess fat and skin from the thighs to improve their shape and contours. It's ideal for individuals with sagging skin and tissue that doesn't respond to diet or exercise.

What is the thigh lift procedure like?

Meticulously Sculpted

During a thigh lift, incisions are strategically placed, typically in the groin area and extending downward, to remove unwanted skin and fat.

The extent, location, and length of the incision vary depending on several patient factors, including the amount and distribution of excess tissue. The remaining tissue is then carefully reshaped and tightened to improve the overall contour of the thighs. Once the desired shape is achieved, the excess tissue will be removed and the incisions closed prior to a compression garment to reduce swelling and support optimal healing.
