What are the plastic surgeries that can be combined with a thigh lift ?
Thigh lift surgery may also be performed in combination with another type of surgery, for instance in combination with an liposuction and tummy tuck.
One common technique used for a thigh lift places incisions in the groin, extending downward wrapping around the back of the thigh. The underlying tissue matrix will be reshaped and tightened, and skin will be reduced and redraped resulting in more proportionate and smoother body contours.
You may qualify for a minimal incision medial thigh lift which involves an incision only in the groin area. Your surgeon will determine what’s appropriate.
What happens during the post-operative period ?
Following your physician’s instructions is key to the success of your cosmetic surgery. It is important that the surgical incisions are not subjected to excessive force, swelling, abrasion, or motion during the time of healing. Your doctor will give you specific instructions on how to care for yourself.

Thigh lift procedure : Your surgeon will choose general or twilight anesthesia (which leaves you sedated, but not unconscious). Next, he or she will make the recommended incision. Whether the skin is excised or lifted varies based on the type of incision and the amount of fat and skin that needs to be removed, re-shaped and/or tightened.
Your surgeon will likely use deep, support stitches that help form and support the new contours of the thigh as part of the surgery. He or she will also close up the incisions with sutures.
The length of the surgery and your hospital stay varies based on which type of thigh lift surgey is chosen and if it is done with liposuction or as part of a lower body lift
What type of results can be obtained ?
The smoother tighter contouring that result from a thigh lift are apparent almost immediately, although initially obscured by some swelling and bruising.You may be required to wear a compression garment for several weeks following your procedure to minimize swelling and support the tissues as they heal.Following a thigh lift, skin quality is dramatically improved both in appearance and feel.
