Description
A thigh lift is done to remove excess skin from the thigh and
buttock area. This sagging skin is usually caused by weight loss. After patients have lost a lot of weight, having this surgery performed is like the “icing on the cake”.
The Sugical Procedure
The inner thigh lifts are done with incisions over the inner
thigh, hidden in the groin crease. Outer thigh and buttock lifts are done with incisions extending from the groin around the back. These are well hidden by bathing suits. All of the scars fade with time.
What To Expect After Surgery
Patients may spend their first night in an overnight care facility. Bruising and swelling are to be expected as well as a “tight” feeling in the thighs.
Resumption of Physical Activities
No work or driving for 2 weeks. No exercise for 4 weeks.
