Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery
For men and women concerned about the appearance of their thighs, a thigh lift can help create smoother and more proportional contours that have a firmer, more youthful look and feel. Thigh lift surgery, or thighplasty, effectively addresses excess skin and fat in the inner and outer thighs for individuals who haven't achieved desired results through diet and exercise or have experienced substantial weight loss.
Types of Thigh Lift Procedures
Hamilton Surgical Arts offers three primary thigh lift techniques tailored to individual body goals:
- Inner (Medial) Thigh Lift:
- Mini Thigh Lift:
- Outer (Lateral) Thigh Lift:
Surgical Approach and Techniques
Dr. Robert F. Jackson performs thigh lift surgery using IV sedation or general anesthesia. The procedure involves removing excess skin, re-draping remaining skin, and tightening underlying tissue to create a smoother, more contoured silhouette.
Recovery and Expectations
Patients can expect some initial soreness, swelling, and bruising following the procedure. Compression garments are recommended to minimize swelling and support newly defined thigh contours. Typical recovery milestones include:
- First 10-14 days: Rest and careful movement
- Subsequent weeks: Gradual return to normal activities
- Up to 8 weeks: Avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting
Long-Term Results
Patients typically observe immediate improvements in thigh shape and contour, with results continuing to refine as healing progresses. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help ensure long-lasting surgical outcomes.
Candidacy and Consultation
Dr. Jackson conducts comprehensive consultations to evaluate individual patient needs, discussing potential techniques and recommending personalized treatment plans. Patients may be considered for thigh lift surgery if they have:
- Excess skin and fat resistant to diet and exercise
- Significant weight loss resulting in loose skin
- Disproportionate thigh contours affecting body image
