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.

This procedure is done for those who have undergone a diet control. Transverse or vertical incision is as explained below:

· Transverse Incision: An incision that creates a horizontal cut and may produce a visible scar. However, patients are often willing to tolerate the scars to solve their issues.

· Vertical Incision: An incision that creates a vertical cut at the inner part of the thigh and may be done until the knee or ankle. Typically applied for patients who have excess skin around the thigh. May leave a T-shaped scar.

The right type of incisions should be determined by our affiliated doctors. The right incision type will be chosen based on your condition and desired result, as well as other factors.
