Thigh lift surgery is one of the most under-explained body contouring operations. The technique chosen depends entirely on the pattern of skin excess.
Medial (inner) thigh lift
Incision hidden in the groin crease; tightens the inner upper thigh. Best for mild-to-moderate laxity without significant vertical excess.
Vertical thigh lift
Long incision down the inner thigh; addresses both circumferential and vertical excess. Reserved for massive-weight-loss patients with significant skin redundancy.
