Thigh Lifts
A thigh lift is performed on patients who present with extra
circumferential laxity of the skin of the upper leg. This is very
frequently the case with massive weight loss patients. Also, excess fat
of the thighs can be suctioned and a thigh lift performed later to
improve the contour and create a taut result.
The following
vertical thigh lift with circumferential abdominoplasty
patient is only two weeks post surgery! The final result
will not be seen for 3 to 6 months! She already has a
significant improvement in the size and contour of her
thighs as well as a dramatic reduction in the appearance of
cellulite. Scar Guard®,
a topical paint used to decrease redness and swelling to the
incision site, was applied prior to taking postoperative
photographs.
