Leg Lift (Thighplasty)

Leg lift; or more commonly known as thighplasty, surgery is a cosmetic operation that can remodel your thighs by removing excess skin and fat, leaving you with smoother skin and improved lower body contour. 

You may be seeking a way to achieve smoother, more evenly shapely legs if you’ve recently lost weight in your thighs. Or maybe you’re seeking for a solution to tighten the skin on your thighs, which tends to sag as you get older. 

What are the various forms of leg lifts?

• Thigh lift on the inner (medial) side
• Mini thigh lift
• Thigh lift on the outside (bilateral) side
• Thigh lift in the vertical position
• Liposuction with lift.

The remedy is available with the ‘Vaser Liposuction’ procedure if there is an increase in fat and a drooping appearance. ‘Fat Injection or Prosthesis’ could be utilized to resolve problems of asymmetry and curved shape. If the drooping is severe enough, a surgical procedure along with liposuction may be required. A cut in the inguinal region is used to remove excess skin and fat.

Doctors recommend that if you’re considering this operation after losing weight, you’ve been at a stable weight for at least 6 months and have already reached your goal weight. This is due to the fact that weight changes can affect the outcome of thigh lift surgery.

The surgery will take place at our hospital under general anesthesia. The procedure could last anywhere between 2 hours or 3 hours. Depending on the type of application, you must stay in the hospital one night.

Before the leg lift operation, you will be evaluated and briefed by an anesthetic doctor. Blood diluent drugs, vitamins, and anesthetic factors such as alcohol and smoking should be avoided beginning on the date specified by your doctor.

After the procedure, you may experience slight pain that may be controlled with pain relievers, and you may need to wear a corset for few weeks. After a week, you can return to your normal routine.
