Thigh Lift Surgery That Supports Your Goals and Confidence
A thigh lift reshapes the thighs by reducing excess skin, and in some cases fat, resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs and lower body. If fitness and weight loss efforts have not achieved your goals for a body that is firmer, more youthful-looking and more proportionate to your overall body image, a surgical thigh lift may be right for you.
Is a Thigh Lift Right For Me?
Candidates for Thigh Lift Surgery Have:
- Body weight that is relatively stable
- Excess tissue along the inner (medial) thigh and/or the outer thigh
- No medical conditions that can impair healing or increase risk of surgery
- Positive outlook and realistic goals for thigh lift surgery
- Commitment healthy lifestyle with good nutrition and fitness
What it won’t do:
Thigh lifts are not intended strictly for the removal of excess fat. Liposuction alone can remove excess fat deposits where skin has good elasticity and is able to naturally conform to new body contours. In cases where skin elasticity is poor, a combination of liposuction and thigh lift techniques may be recommended.
Anesthesia
Medications are administered for your comfort during the surgical procedures. The choices include intravenous sedation and general anesthesia. Dr. Fugo will recommend the best choice for you.
The Incision
Incision patterns vary based on the area or areas to be treated, degree of correction and patient and surgeon preference.
One common technique used for a thigh lift in New York places incisions in the groin, extending downward wrapping around the back of the thigh. The underlying tissue matrix will be reshaped and tightened, and skin will be reduced and redraped resulting in more proportionate and smoother body contours.
You may qualify for a minimal incision medial thigh lift New York which involves an incision only in the groin area. Dr. Fugo will determine what’s appropriate. Improving the contours of the outer thigh may require an incision extending from the groin around the hip.
Through these incisions, Dr. Fugo will tighten tissues for a smoother, better-toned lower body contour. Advanced techniques usually allow incisions to be placed in strategic locations where they can be hidden by most types of clothing and swimsuits. However, incisions may be extensive. Deep support sutures within underlying tissues help to form the newly shaped contours. Sutures close the skin incisions.

When You Go Home
