Thighplasty
Thighplasty
Thighplasty, commonly known as a thigh lift, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and contour the thighs by removing excess skin and fat. It is ideal for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss or have loose, sagging skin due to aging. This procedure enhances the overall shape and proportion of the lower body, resulting in smoother, firmer thighs that better match the rest of your physique.
Procedure:
Thighplasty is performed under general anesthesia. Incisions are strategically made in the groin or along the inner thigh to remove excess tissue. The remaining skin is tightened and sutured for a firm, contoured look. Depending on your goals, the procedure may be combined with liposuction for enhanced results.
