Thigh Lift

A thigh lift (thighplasty) removes excess skin and reshapes the inner or outer thighs to restore smoother, firmer contours. It’s especially powerful after major weight loss or age-related skin laxity.

Why Thigh Lifts Matter

Even with consistent exercise, loose thigh skin doesn’t reliably “snap back.” When dermal collagen and elastin are stretched beyond recovery, the result can be friction, uneven contour, and clothing that never fits quite right.

A thigh lift removes redundant skin and re-drapes remaining tissue to create a cleaner thigh line. When appropriate, liposuction may be used for refinement — but the primary goal is contouring through skin excision and tightening of the superficial fascia.

  • Inner thigh laxity and rubbing
  • Outer thigh drooping or “saddlebag” appearance
  • Crepey skin after weight loss
  • Loss of thigh definition with aging

Downtime & Healing

Recovery Timeline

Recovery depends on the extent of lifting and whether liposuction is included. You’ll wear a compression garment to control swelling and support contour.

First Week

Swelling, bruising, and tightness are expected. Walking is encouraged, but activity is limited.

○ ○

Weeks 2–3

Most return to desk work. Incisions continue to mature; discomfort steadily decreases.

○ ○ ○

Weeks 4–8+

Exercise is gradually resumed. Final contour refines over several months as edema resolves.

Common Questions

Thigh Lift FAQ

Will liposuction alone fix my thighs?

Liposuction removes fat, not loose skin. If your main concern is laxity or creping, a lift is what creates visible tightening.

Where are the scars?

Most incisions are concealed in the groin crease or along the inner thigh. Larger lifts may require a vertical scar for greater correction.

How long will results last?

Results are long-term when weight remains stable. Aging continues, but skin redundancy does not return to pre-surgery levels.

When can I exercise again?

Light walking starts immediately. Most patients resume structured exercise around 4–6 weeks, depending on healing.
