THIGH LIFT IN GRAND RAPIDS, MI | DR. SHANNON D. ARMSTRONG, MD

UNDERSTANDING THIGH LIFT SURGERY

Life's transformations can result in unwanted excess skin and fat in
the lower body. A surgical thigh lift, or thighplasty, effectively
improves areas of sagging in the inner and outer thigh region,
restoring a more pleasing body contour.

WHY CONSIDER A THIGH LIFT?

Fatty deposits on inner and outer thighs often resist diet and
exercise. Many patients become discouraged after losing weight without
seeing significant changes in their lower body's proportions. A thigh
lift can successfully trim excess fat, skin, and tissue to achieve a
more attractive body balance and symmetry.

THIGH LIFT PROCEDURE DETAILS

CANDIDATE QUALIFICATIONS

The ideal thigh lift candidate is at a healthy, stable weight with
realistic expectations. Elite Plastic Surgery prefers non-smoking
patients without health conditions that might complicate healing or
increase infection risks.

PROCEDURE TECHNIQUES

 	* Inner Thigh Lift: Targets sagging skin in the inner leg region
	* Outer Thigh Lift: Addresses tissue along the outer thigh and hip
area
	* Potential combination with liposuction for enhanced contouring

POTENTIAL PROCEDURE OUTCOMES

A thigh lift can comprehensively address the upper leg's entire
circumference, from buttocks to knees. Surgeons can remove loose skin,
reduce cellulite appearance, and create a more toned, streamlined
lower body profile.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Results typically last five to ten years, depending on maintaining a
stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Initial recovery involves limited
activity, with gradual return to exercise under surgical guidance.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

 	* Possible surgical risks include infection, scarring, and healing
complications
	* Scarring is strategically minimized through precise incision
placement
	* Individual healing processes vary

COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

Thigh lifts can be combined with other body contouring procedures like
liposuction or abdominoplasty to achieve comprehensive aesthetic
goals.
