Thigh lift surgery – the procedure and recovery
The clients going through with this surgery have a consultation with a plastic surgeon beforehand. During the consultation, the plastic surgeon evaluates the client’s health status, discusses their desires and expectations, and determines the suitable operation technique.
Thigh lift surgery is most often done with anesthesia. The operation begins with liposuction to remove excess fat and shape the soft tissue on the thigh. The surgeon makes the incisions based on the chosen technique, removes the excess skin and fat, and tightens the remaining skin.
The procedure is typically done in one day, and spending the night at the clinic is not needed. After the procedure, compression garments are worn to reduce swelling and promote healing. The length of recovering varies, but we recommend refraining from exhausting activities for several weeks.
