Thigh Lift

Achieve smoother thighs and a more contoured lower body through a thigh lift procedure tailored to your aesthetic goals.

 

What Is a Thigh Lift?

A thigh lift is a surgical procedure focused on improving the contours of the upper thigh by removing excess thigh skin and tightening underlying tissues. During this procedure, Dr. Bailey targets areas where loose skin tends to collect—often along the inner thigh (medial thigh) or outer thigh (lateral thigh)—to create a more streamlined appearance. While some patients may benefit from a mini thigh lift to address subtle sagging, others with significant excess tissues or massive weight loss may require a more comprehensive approach, such as a circumferential thigh lift.

The Benefits of a Thigh Lift

  • Improved Contours: A thigh lift helps remove loose, excess thigh skin for sculpted thighs that look naturally toned.
  • Reduced Chafing & Discomfort: Eliminating excess tissues can minimize irritation caused by skin-on-skin contact.
  • Enhanced Comfort in Clothing: Tighter thigh skin often allows for a better fit in pants, shorts, and swimsuits.
  • Boosted Self-Confidence: Achieving a smoother thigh shape can improve body image and enhance overall lifestyle satisfaction.
  • Long-Lasting Results: When combined with a healthy lifestyle and stable weight, the results of thigh lift procedures can remain for many years.

Who Is a Candidate for a Thigh Lift?

A thigh lift may be the right treatment if you:

  • Struggle with Excess Thigh Skin: Particularly after massive weight loss, weight loss surgery, or age-related skin laxity.
  • Maintain a Stable Weight: Significant weight fluctuations can affect the longevity of your results, so achieving a healthy weight before surgery is crucial.
  • Desire Smoother Thighs & Firmer Contours: Ideal for those seeking a more proportionate lower body appearance.
  • Are in Good Overall Health: A thorough medical history review will help determine if you can safely undergo thigh lift procedures.
  • Have Realistic Expectations: While a thigh lift can dramatically improve thigh shape, it’s important to understand potential risks and benefits.

 

If you’re unsure whether you fit these criteria, an appointment with Dr. Bailey can clarify your options and help you decide if a thigh lift technique aligns with your aesthetic goals.
