What is Thigh Lift Surgery?

Thigh Lift surgery, also known as thighplasty, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at removing excess skin and fat from the thighs to create a smoother, firmer, and more toned appearance.

Patients are encouraged to schedule a consultation with our surgeon to discuss their specific goals and receive a detailed estimate tailored to their needs.

Benefits of Thigh Lift Surgery:

Thigh Lift surgery offers numerous benefits, including:

  • Removal of excess skin and fat from the thighs.
  • Tightening and lifting of sagging skin for a more youthful appearance.
  • Improved thigh contours and proportions.
  • Enhanced self-confidence and body image.

  • Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure.
  • Do not smoke or are willing to quit smoking before and after surgery to promote proper healing.

How is the Procedure Done?

Thigh Lift surgery typically involves the following steps:

  • Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
  • Incisions: Rejuuvmed surgeon makes discreet incisions in the groin crease, inner thigh, or outer thigh, depending on the extent of correction needed and patient preference.
  • Tissue manipulation: Excess skin and fat are removed, and the remaining skin is lifted and tightened to achieve a smoother thigh contour.
  • Closure: Once the necessary adjustments have been made, the incisions are meticulously closed with sutures.

Recovery Time:

Following Thigh Lift surgery, patients can expect a recovery process characterized by:

  • Swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the thigh area, which gradually subside over the course of a few weeks.
  • Instructions for post-operative care, including wearing compression garments to minimize swelling and support the thighs.
  • Return to light activities within 1 to 2 weeks, with full recovery and resumption of strenuous activities typically within 4 to 6 weeks.

Risk Factors:

While Thigh Lift surgery is considered safe, potential risks and complications may include:

  • Infection at the incision sites.
  • Bleeding or hematoma formation.
  • Changes in sensation or temporary numbness in the thighs.
  • Unsatisfactory cosmetic outcomes, though these are rare when the procedure is performed by Rejuuvmed surgeon.

Combination with Other Procedures:

Thigh Lift surgery can be combined with complementary procedures such as liposuction or body lift to achieve comprehensive body contouring and rejuvenation.

Pain Management:

During the procedure, patients are under general anesthesia to ensure they feel no discomfort. Afterward, any post-operative pain can be effectively managed with prescribed medications as needed.

Preparing for Surgery:

To prepare for Thigh Lift surgery, patients may be advised to:

  • Quit smoking and avoid certain medications that can increase the risk of complications.
  • Arrange for transportation to and from the surgical facility.
  • Follow any pre-operative instructions provided by Rejuuvmed surgeon, including fasting before the procedure if necessary.

Alternatives:

Non-surgical alternatives to Thigh Lift surgery may include non-invasive skin tightening treatments or body contouring procedures using radiofrequency or ultrasound technology. However, these options may provide limited results for individuals with significant skin laxity and excess fat.

FAQ About thigh lift Surgery

What is a thigh lift?

A thigh lift, also known as thighplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the thighs, resulting in a smoother, firmer, and more contoured appearance. This procedure is ideal for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, aging, or have loose skin on their thighs that is resistant to diet and exercise.

A consultation with our expert team at Rejuuv Med Toronto will help determine if a thigh lift is the right option for you. 

How is a thigh lift performed at Rejuuv Med Toronto?

During a thigh lift procedure, the surgeon makes incisions along the inner thigh, groin, or outer thigh, depending on the extent of correction needed. Excess skin and fat are removed, and the remaining skin is tightened to create a smoother contour. The incisions are carefully closed to minimize visible scarring. Thigh lift surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia.

A thigh lift can provide several benefits, including: 

  • Improved thigh contour and symmetry. 
  • Reduction of sagging skin, creating a more youthful and toned appearance. 
  • Enhanced comfort during physical activities. 
  • Increased self-confidence and satisfaction with body shape. 

What is the recovery process like after a thigh lift?

Recovery from a thigh lift typically involves some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication. Patients are usually advised to rest for the first few days and avoid strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks. Most people can return to light activities and work within 1-2 weeks, but the exact timeline varies based on individual healing. 

Are the results of a thigh lift permanent?

The results of a thigh lift are long-lasting, especially when combined with a healthy lifestyle and stable weight. However, natural aging and significant weight fluctuations can affect the appearance of the thighs over time. Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise can help prolong the results.

The skilled team at Rejuuv Med Toronto follows strict safety protocols to minimize these risks and ensure the best possible outcomes. 

Will there be visible scars after a thigh lift?

Scarring is a normal part of any surgical procedure. Thigh lift incisions are strategically placed to be as discreet as possible, often hidden in natural creases. Over time, scars will fade and become less noticeable with proper care, including following post-operative instructions provided by our team at Rejuuv Med Toronto.

What surgeries can be performed with thigh lift together? 

1. Liposuction: Liposuction is frequently combined with thigh lift surgery to remove excess fat and further refine the contour of the thighs. It helps enhance the overall result by targeting stubborn fat pockets that may not be addressed by the skin tightening aspect of the thigh lift alone. 

2. Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): Combining a thigh lift with a tummy tuck is popular for patients seeking a comprehensive lower body transformation. This combination helps tighten the abdominal area while also improving the contours of the thighs, creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing silhouette. 

3. Buttock Lift (Gluteoplasty): A buttock lift can be performed alongside a thigh lift to address sagging or loose skin in the buttocks and thighs. This combination enhances the overall appearance of the lower body by tightening and lifting the skin, providing a more youthful and toned look. 

4. Body Lift (Belt Lipectomy): A lower body lift or belt lipectomy combines a thigh lift with other body contouring procedures, including tummy tuck and buttock lift, to address excess skin and fat around the entire lower body. This is often ideal for patients who have undergone significant weight loss.
