Thigh lift, or sometimes known as thigh surgery or thighplasty is a surgical procedure that aims to restore firmness to the thighs by cutting away loose skin through an incision along the inguinal area, resulting in smoother skin and better contours for the thighs and lower body.

This procedure is commonly performed especially for those who have gone through a great weight loss journey and have loose drooping skin on their inner thighs. In order to maintain results of thighplasty, muscle toning exercises should be done before surgery and after recovery.

1. General or local anaesthesia will be administered
2. An incision of T or L shaped; formed at the crouch along the way to the buttocks
3. The skin will be lifted and the excess fat will be removed
4. Incisions will be closed neatly

<Advantages>

· Tightens skin at the upper leg area

· Contours your upper leg area

<Limitations>
· Swelling and bruising may prolong up to 3 to 4 weeks
· Potential temporary visible scarring
· Liposuction may be necessary before undergoing a thigh lift procedure (for those with a lot of excess fat)

· Stop taking blood thinning medications at least 4 weeks prior
· Strictly no smoking for at least 4 weeks before procedure as it could lead to surgery complications
· No eating or drinking for at least 8 hours prior the procedure

· Always wear a special compression garment for 4 to 5 weeks
· Avoid physical works for 1 to 2 months.
· Refrain any participation in strenuous activities or exercises for 6 to 8 weeks

Q1: Will the scars from my thigh surgery procedure ever heal?
A1: Yes. Wound healing will continue until the scars mature over 6 to 12 months.

Q2: Are results of this procedure permanent?
A2: Significant fluctuations in weight will negate the results of surgery. If your weight is maintained, so will the results of your thigh surgery.

Q3: Will aging affect the results of my thigh surgery?
A3: Some firmness in the thighs can be lost over the years due to the natural process of aging.

Q4: If I have a lot of excess fat at my thighs, can I get a thigh surgery right after my liposuction procedure?
A4: No. If you plan on going for a thigh surgery after your liposuction session, the duration between these 2 treatments should be about half a year.
