Thigh Lift Newport Beach, CA | Dr. Nirav Savalia | Newport Beach Center for Plastic Surgery

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

A thigh lift is a surgical procedure designed to remove loose skin and excess tissue from the inner and outer thighs. This transformative surgery addresses common concerns related to aging and significant weight loss, improving both aesthetic appearance and physical comfort.

Candidate Considerations for Thigh Lift

Ideal candidates for a thigh lift typically experience:

• Excess, sagging skin on the inner or outer thighs
• Persistent chafing during physical activities
• Reduced skin elasticity after significant weight loss

Procedure Types at Newport Beach Center for Plastic Surgery

Inner Thigh Lift (Medial Thigh Lift)

Dr. Savalia performs an inner thigh lift by strategically placing incisions within the natural groin crease to minimize visible scarring. Through these carefully planned incisions, excess soft tissue and skin are removed to create a more refined inner thigh contour.

Outer Thigh Lift (Lateral Thigh Lift)

The lateral thigh lift targets outer thigh "saddlebags" by removing excess skin and tissue through an incision extending from the groin to the hip. This procedure is often combined with complementary body contouring techniques like liposuction or tummy tuck for comprehensive results.

Recovery and Maintenance

Following a thigh lift, patients can expect initial swelling and discomfort. Dr. Savalia recommends wearing a supportive garment and engaging in light walking to promote healthy circulation. Most patients resume normal daily activities within two weeks, with full recovery taking several months.

Maintaining Thigh Lift Results

Long-term success depends on maintaining a stable weight, avoiding significant fluctuations, and following a healthy lifestyle. Proper nutrition, regular exercise, and sun protection can help preserve surgical outcomes.

Potential Procedure Combinations

• Liposuction for enhanced body contouring
• Lower body lift for comprehensive skin tightening
• Tummy tuck for overall body transformation

Cellulite Improvement

While a thigh lift primarily addresses excess skin, the skin-tightening effect can significantly improve the appearance of cellulite, resulting in smoother, more toned thighs.
