Thigh Lift
A thigh lift improves loose skin and contour irregularities in the thigh area, often after weight loss or natural ageing. It helps create smoother legs and a more comfortable feel during movement. Many patients choose it to reduce chafing and improve confidence in fitted clothing.

How Does Thigh Lift Work
A thigh lift works by removing excess skin and reshaping the thigh contour. Incisions are usually placed in the groin crease and may extend depending on the amount of skin to be removed. Your surgeon selects the approach that delivers the most natural and balanced outcome.
What are Benefits of Thigh Lift?
A thigh lift can create firmer legs, reduce discomfort from skin rubbing and improve overall symmetry and confidence. Results are long lasting and often make walking, exercising and clothing choices more comfortable and enjoyable.
FAQ's
What areas can a thigh lift improve?
Thigh lifts can target the inner thighs, outer thighs or both depending on where laxity is present. Inner thigh lifting is common when there is sagging and chafing. Your surgeon will advise the best technique for your anatomy.
What is recovery like?
Swelling and tightness are common for the first couple of weeks. Many patients return to work within two weeks depending on activity levels. Exercise and stretching are introduced gradually to protect healing.
Will there be scars?
Yes, but scars are placed in natural creases where possible. The extent of scarring depends on how much skin needs to be removed. Scars generally fade over time with proper scar care.
Does a thigh lift remove fat?
It primarily addresses loose skin, but liposuction can be added when excess fat contributes to the contour. Combining techniques can improve smoothness and shape. Your plan is personalised to achieve the best result.
Are results permanent?
Results are long lasting with stable weight and healthy habits. Major weight changes can affect the contour again. Many patients enjoy improved leg shape for years after surgery.
