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.

VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) is an ultrasound-assisted liposuction that is able to precisely target large or small problematic areas. It's an effective option for people who struggle to remove stubborn fat. It works by disrupting the fat cells with ultrasound and then sucking the fats out with a cannula. This enables a quick treatment and better skin contraction after the suction. Among its benefits are minimally invasive, reduced downtime, quick recovery and fast results. If you have stubborn excess fat around the thigh region, then this procedure can help to give a more satisfying result when combined with a thigh lift surgery.
