What exactly is a Thigh Lift?

Thigh Lift benefits include:
Thigh lift surgery reshapes the thighs by reducing excess fat and skin, resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs. Incision patterns vary based on the area or areas to be treated, your physician would evaluate that beforehand, it depends on the degree of correction the patient may need and of course the insight and knowledge of the Doctor to the specific case.
Having said that, the extension of the incision would be based on the patient’s specific necessities. There are different types, such as, inner Thigh Lift which involves an incision only in the groin area. There is also the outer Thigh Lift entails an incision extending from the groin around the hip and across the back. And finally you may require an extended Thigh Lift, which begins on the upper portion of the leg and the incision goes all the way down up until the knee, sometimes a bit further up or right to the knee, it depends on the amount of skin you’d need to be removed.
Recovery process
Removal of tissue from the inner thigh or medial thigh will leave an incision along the groin crease. This requires 2-3 weeks of healing. You should take it very easy the first two weeks after surgery. You can resume most activities usually by three weeks.
Larger thigh reductions, such as a lower body lift (which addresses the buttocks/posterior thigh, hips/lateral thigh, and anterior thigh), may require 4 to 6 weeks of recovery. The longer the incision, the longer the time required to allow them to heal. Expect bruising and swelling it is completely normal, it will fade with time.
In all recovery process rest is the key to a good outcome, resting and following the indications given to you by your surgeon, always follow the indications given to by the Doctor who did your surgery, any other indication given by other Doctors are not be followed since every Doctor has his own way of working any alternation can contribute to a bad outcome.
Start with a one on one consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to determine which thigh reduction procedure will achieve your particular goals in improving the appearance of your thighs. Afterwards, your surgeon will determine the incisions and the amount of time you will need to set aside to heal properly.
