Thigh Lift Keller, TX | Dr. Candis Lovelace, MD, FACS

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

A thigh lift is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fatty tissue from the thighs. This body contouring surgery is not a weight loss treatment and is best suited for individuals who have achieved a stable weight.

Ideal Candidates for Thigh Lift

Candidates for thigh lift surgery should:

• Have maintained a stable weight for at least 6 months
• Be at least one year post-bariatric procedure
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Consultation Process

During your thigh lift consultation, Dr. Lovelace will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, discussing your aesthetic goals, medical history, and determining the most appropriate surgical technique for your specific needs.

Preparing for Your Thigh Lift Procedure

Preparation is crucial for a successful thigh lift. Key considerations include:

• Arranging transportation to and from surgery
• Planning for 5-7 days of recovery time
• Preparing a comfortable recovery area

Surgical Procedure Details

The thigh lift procedure involves administering anesthesia and creating strategic incisions to remove excess skin. Dr. Lovelace will use advanced techniques to minimize scarring and optimize aesthetic results.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery typically involves wearing a compression garment for 8 weeks and gradually resuming normal activities. Most patients return to light work within 1-2 weeks and can engage in strenuous activities after approximately 8 weeks.

Potential Risks

As with any surgical procedure, thigh lift surgery carries potential risks, including infection, scarring, and healing complications. Dr. Lovelace will thoroughly discuss these during your consultation.
