THIGH LIFT
Thigh lift (also known as thighplasty) is a body contouring procedure that reshapes the thighs by removing excess skin and fat from either the inner or outer thighs.
Through thighplasty, thighs become leaner and more proportionate, and the lower body gets a more youthful and curvaceous appearance.
Candidates for a thigh lift are men or women, who have sagging skin and excess fat deposits on their thighs. However, we should note that thigh lifts are not intended strictly for the removal of excess fat. Liposuction alone can remove excess fat, when skin is able to naturally conform to new body contours.
Thigh lift is a procedure that addresses every aspect of the thigh’s aesthetics; skin, fat, and overall shape. The surgery can address the inner thighs (medial), outer thighs (lateral), or both.

Inner Thigh Lift
An inner (medial) thigh lift can be performed with various surgical techniques.
The most common variations involve an incision in the inner thigh, through which excess skin and fat are removed. The area from the knee to the groin is recontoured and the procedure is repeated for the other thigh. If a more substantial removal of excess skin is required, a longitudinal incision may be made along the inner thigh.
In some cases, especially when skin elasticity is poor, liposuction may be included in the procedure.
Outer Thigh Lift
An outer (lateral) thigh lift is a more complex procedure, as it usually involves recontouring of both the outer thighs and the buttocks.
Additionally, the incisions are also more extensive, as more skin and fat are removed. In some cases, liposuction may be included in the procedure as well.
At VF Laser Clinics, Thigh Lift procedures are always tailored to address the individual needs of the patient.

As with all surgeries, we follow specific medical protocols, e.g. we review the patient’s medical history, we conduct physical exams, medical tests, etc.
During your initial consultation, you will have the chance to talk about any concerns you may have with our experienced surgeon.
Recovery time may vary depending on the surgery method used, and on the amount of tissue and skin removed. As a result, some patients could be able to return to their work in a few days, while others might need up to 14 days after their procedure.
Generally, a patient should rest as much as possible for the first week, and then gradually increase her activities. For the first 2 weeks the patient should avoid some movements. Thighs will feel sore, and there will be some bruising and swelling.
The final appearance will be visible in 5-8 weeks.
Thigh lift can be combined with tummy tuck or breast enhancement procedures (mommy makeover).
