What Is A Thigh Lift?

A thigh lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to improve the aesthetic appearance of the thigh by removing excess fat and skin.

Medically referred to as thighplasty, a thigh lift procedure can achieve results of a toned and more smooth appearance that is more in proportion to the rest of your body.

The procedure is performed in a variety of ways depending on the extent of surgery required and patient goals. Liposuction is commonly used in a thigh lift in conjunction with excision to create a firmer look and more pleasing body contour.

Why Choose Thighplasty?

The fat in the thighs is known for being stubborn and difficult to remove. Even when weight loss has occurred on other parts of the body, fat and sagging skin can still remain.

Excess fat and skin can often be present in the thighs and cause distress and anxiety by the making the patient look larger or older than they actually are.

A thigh lift surgeon will target these problem areas and can reshape and smoothen both your inner and outer thighs where weight loss is difficult through natural means.

Thighplasty can bring patient satisfaction by tackling some common complaints. The procedure has many benefits, including:

  • Remove sagging/hanging skin
  • Remove stubborn fat that can cause rippling and ‘overhang’
  • Tighten underlying tissue
  • Combined surgery with liposuction for the ideal contour
  • Create slimmer and smoother looking thighs
  • Boost self confidence and open up clothing possibilities such as swimming costume / bikini

About Thigh Lift Surgery

Thigh lift surgery is performed under general anaesthetic on an outpatient basis.

The procedure can take between 2-4 hours to perform depending on your body size and type.

Excess fat and sagging skin is removed and your surgeon will tighten and reshape the remaining underlying tissue, along with lifting and smoothing the skin.

There are 4 main thigh lift procedures:

  • Inner thigh lift
  • Outer thigh lift
  • Mini thigh lift
  • Medial thigh lift

During a consultation, you will be able to discuss the different types of thigh lift available and what is right for you. Each type of thighplasty targets a different area of the thigh and will achieve different results. Liposuction can also be used to precisely target stubborn fat and assist in reaching your aesthetic goals.

Thighplasty Aftercare / Recovery

Before you undergo thigh surgery, you will be made aware of the aftercare and recovery guidance that relates to your specific patient care.

It is important to rest and clean your wounds whenever possible and ask for assistance from a companion to help with daily duties. Below is a list of the general guidance for thighplasty recovery:

  • Bandages and drains will be applied post surgery, which may remain for a few days. It is important to clean incisions, keep compression garments in place and look carefully at the fluid in the drains for signs of infection.
  • It is common to feel mild pain and discomfort, which can be managed with pain relief medication.
  • Ice can be used to ease symptoms of swelling and bruising of the thighs.
  • Using pillows are a good way to take pressure off your legs during the recovery process and be sure to rest up.
  • In the days and weeks that follow, you will need a follow up appointment with your consultant to examine the surgery and progress.
  • Patients can benefit from time off work as it provides downtime to relax and recover. Up to 3 weeks would be ideal but a minimum of 1 week off is recommended.
  • Compression garments can be removed after around 4 weeks and providing you are feeling up to it; light exercise can be resumed.
  • Scars will fade after 3 months and continue to fade in the following months to a year.

Thigh surgery comes with some common side effects and rare complications.

These include:

  • Pain and discomfort
  • Swelling and bruising
  • Change of sensation in your skin
  • Anaesthetic allergic reaction
  • Asymmetry
  • Sagging

  • Infection

Frequently Asked Questions

A thigh lift can take up to four hours to perform depending on your body type and procedure.

General anaesthetic is commonly used in thighplasty. However, some mini thigh lift procedures can be performed using only local anaesthetic. In addition, epidural is also an option for some patients – ask what your options are during a consultation.

Major weight gain or loss can affect the results of your surgery both short and long term. It is recommended to be a stable, ideal weight before surgery and engage in healthy eating and active lifestyle following surgery. This will ensure you get the most out of your procedure and that the results last longer.

Sometimes drains are required for the first few days following your thigh procedure. So if you are discharged whilst the drains are still in you will be required to care for them at home. However, your surgeon will tell you exactly what to do.

It is recommended that you have between 1-3 weeks off work depending on your job and how comfortable you feel.
