I am a doctor at a big multi-profile hospital. When my husband started having serious problems with blood vessels, we decided to seek the help of specialists with extended experience in invasive and non-invasive surgeries. We chose Kardiolita because of the best price and quality ratio. Today, with our health problems behind us, we can say that we have made the right choice, and our expectations were exceeded greatly. Personal contact between the patient and the doctors, unfortunately, is rare in most world clinics. We are extremely thankful to the managers and the staff of the clinic for giving us an excellent living environment, food and medical services. Special thanks to all doctors - for their world-class professionalism. Trust me, the high quality medical services we received would not have been possible even at my colleagues, even though they would have been doing their best. With serious health problems, I highly recommend to go to Kardiolita. We are truly thankful to all the people there.

What is a Thigh Lift?

The objective of the thigh lift (thighplasty) procedure is to improve the contour of the thighs by lifting and removing excess skin and occasionally fat that has lost its elasticity due to age or fluctuation in weight. Liposuction may be used in conjunction with the thigh lift procedure.

 

A Good Candidate for Thigh Lift

Good Candidates for thigh lift surgery are healthy non-smoking individuals. The minimum age requirement for this surgery is 18 years of age.

 

Thigh Lift Procedure

The first step is a detailed consultation with your surgeon who will discuss with you the best method(s) to be used to achieve your desired end results. After the patient has undergone anesthesia, incisions may be made in one of three different places, depending on which area of the thighs need to be concentrated on the most. Incisions may be made on the inner thighs just below the pubic area for those who need to have fat, excess or loose skin removed from their inner thigh.

 

A certain amount of skin and fat is removed from the inner thigh and tightened to improve the natural contour of the leg. Another type of incision is the bilateral incision. This method is typically used for those who have lost a significant amount of weight, and have large amounts of excess skin on the front and outside of their thighs.

 

The last method is called the medial incision. During this procedure, an incision is made in the groin all the way back to the buttock, allowing for access to the entire upper thigh where excess skin and fat are to be removed. After incisions are executed, excess skin and small portions of fat are removed.

 

The incisions are closed up with dissolvable or removable stitches, in which case the patient may be required to return to the hospital for a follow-up visit to have the stitches removed. This procedure can be outpatient or inpatient. Your surgeon will determine your length of stay in the hospital following your procedure.

 

Average Duration of Thigh Lift Surgery: 2-4 hours
