Thigh Contouring with Plastic Surgery
A thigh lift, or thighplasty, reshapes the thighs by reducing excess skin and fat, resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs and lower body.
If fitness and weight control efforts have not achieved your goals for a body that is firmer, more youthful-looking and more proportionate to your overall body image, a surgical lift may be right for you.
Who gets a thigh lift?
You may consider getting a thigh lift procedure if you lose a significant amount of weight. Major weight loss can lead to poor skin tone and loss of elasticity in areas that store excess fat, like your thighs. This can cause:
- Cellulite or lumpy, dimpled skin.
- Rashes or chafing.
- Bleeding and discoloration.
- Sagging skin.
Who is a candidate for a thigh lift?
You may be a candidate for thigh lift surgery if you:
- Don’t smoke.
- Have any underlying medical conditions that are well managed (like diabetes), or you don’t have any conditions that can complicate your recovery.
- Have maintained your goal weight for a year, and don’t plan to lose more.
Dr. Azharian will evaluate whether you’re a candidate for a thigh lift procedure by checking your general health and medical history.
