Thigh Lift Procedures

Dr. Bolitho helps clients achieve smoother, more toned thigh contours through two basic techniques.

Lateral Thigh Lift:

Focuses on the outer thigh area, addressing sagging skin along the sides.
Involves an incision along the hip and outer thigh, allowing for skin and tissue tightening.
Suited for individuals seeking improvement in the outer thigh and buttock area.
Often combined with abdominoplasty or ‘tummy tuck’

Medial Thigh Lift:

Targets the inner thighs, addressing sagging skin in this area.
Involves an incision along the inner thigh, allowing for skin and fat removal.
Ideal for individuals with significant skin laxity in the inner thigh region.

Maximizing Your Desired Outcome for Shapely Legs

A thigh lift is often combined with liposuction to enhance the overall results and achieve a balanced body contour. Liposuction is used to remove excess fat deposits from areas surrounding the thighs, further refining their shape and improving proportions. This combined approach helps address both excess skin and stubborn fat, resulting in smoother and more sculpted thigh contours. Dr. Bolitho's expertise ensures a harmonious combination of these procedures tailored to your individual goals and needs.

How Long Until I Can Return to My Usual Routine?

Thigh lift recovery time varies but typically involves a downtime of about 1 to 2 weeks. During this period, you may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort. It's advisable to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for several weeks to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
