Thigh Lift McLean, VA | Mesbahi Plastic Surgery

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

Mesbahi Plastic Surgery offers advanced thigh lift procedures for individuals seeking to enhance their lower body contours. A thigh lift, or thighplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to trim away excess skin on the outer or inner thighs, producing a tighter and more refined appearance.

Ideal Candidates for Thigh Lift

Thigh lift surgery is particularly beneficial for patients who have:

• Lost significant weight (100 pounds or more)
• Experienced skin laxity due to aging
• Developed loose skin after pregnancy
• Persistent sagging skin resistant to diet and exercise

Procedure Details

Dr. Mesbahi performs thigh lift surgery under general anesthesia. The procedure involves creating strategic incisions along the natural fold where the thigh meets the torso, allowing for precise skin removal and contouring. When necessary, liposuction can be integrated to remove stubborn fat deposits.

Recovery and Results

The thigh lift procedure typically takes 2-3 hours, with a total recovery period of 6-8 weeks. Patients can expect some initial bruising and swelling, which gradually subsides. Following post-operative instructions carefully helps ensure optimal healing and long-lasting results.

Potential Combination Procedures

Patients often combine thigh lift surgery with complementary procedures like butt augmentation or tummy tuck to achieve comprehensive body contouring. During the consultation, Dr. Mesbahi can develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to individual aesthetic goals.

Addressing Common Concerns

While a thigh lift can improve the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks, results vary. The procedure primarily focuses on skin tightening and body contouring. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help preserve surgical outcomes.
