What is this procedure?
A thigh lift, also known as thighplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the thighs by removing excess skin, tightening the underlying tissues, and contouring the thigh area. It is often performed to address issues such as loose skin, cellulite, and excess fat in the thighs.
What body part does this procedure target?
A thigh lift primarily targets the thigh area, including:
- Inner thighs: The procedure focuses on addressing excess skin and fat in the inner thigh region, improving overall thigh contour and definition.
- Outer thighs: In some cases, a thigh lift may involve addressing sagging skin and fat deposits on the outer thighs, commonly referred to as “saddlebags.”
Who is a good candidate for Treatment?
Good candidates for a thigh lift are individuals who:
- Have excess skin or sagging in the thigh area.
- Have stable body weight and are close to their ideal weight.
- Have realistic expectations about the procedure and its outcomes.
- Are in good overall health and do not have any medical conditions that may interfere with the surgery or recovery.
- Are non-smokers or willing to quit smoking before and after the procedure.
During a consultation at PMA Dermatology, our experienced team will evaluate your specific needs and goals to determine if you are a suitable candidate for a thigh lift.
Why is this procedure used for?
Thigh lifts are used for the following reasons:
- Eliminating excess skin: The procedure can remove loose or sagging skin in the thigh area, often caused by weight loss, aging, or genetics.
- Reducing excess fat: Thighplasty can also target stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise, helping to improve thigh contours.
- Enhancing body proportions: By contouring the thighs, a thigh lift can enhance the overall balance and symmetry of the body, particularly when combined with other body contouring procedures.
How Does this procedure Work?
The thigh lift procedure typically involves the following steps:
- Anesthesia: You will receive either general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
- Incision placement: Incisions are strategically made in the inner thigh or along the groin crease, allowing the surgeon to access and remove excess skin and fat.
- Tissue removal and tightening: The surgeon will remove the excess skin and fat, and then tighten and reshape the underlying tissues to achieve a more toned and contoured thigh appearance.
- Incision closure: Incisions are closed with sutures, and sterile dressings may be applied to aid in the healing process.
- Recovery and follow-up: You will be provided with detailed post-operative instructions to facilitate your recovery. Follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor your healing progress and address any concerns.
What is the cost?
The cost of a thigh lift can vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the procedure, the techniques used, the surgeon’s expertise, and the geographic location of the practice. During your consultation at PMA Dermatology, we will provide you with a comprehensive cost estimate tailored to your specific needs and goals.
