A Thigh Lift Procedure Makes You Comfortable In Clothes Again

By:


Significant weight loss can result in major loosening of the skin. Laxity of the outer thigh and buttock areas can cause significant discomfort and difficulty with clothing, due to excessive hanging skin. As a result patients will often complain that the ability to feel comfortable in or out of clothing is significantly impacted due to the cosmetic deformity. Often liposuction is done before and/or during the outer thigh and buttock lift, in order to optimize the result. The outer thigh/buttock lift can lead to a major improvement in comfort and appearance.

It is important to understand that the goal of these procedures is to improve the overall appearance while minimizing the risk for complications. The scars that result from the outer thigh/buttock lift typically follow the waistline and are well covered by bathing suits and or undergarments. It is important to note that the scars that result from these procedures can be quite variable. In addition, surgery of this nature is very involved and there are inherent limitations to the degree of improvement. Your surgeon will not be able to remove every single fold and or wrinkle, however major improvement can be attainable.

In select cases, the outer thigh/buttock lift can be combined with an abdominoplasty to create "lower body lift." The patient must be a suitable candidate to undergo a lower body lift and/or buttock lift. It is extremely important for you to understand the risk and benefit as well as the limitations of this procedure. Ultimately, it will be necessary for you to express your expectations to your surgeon. Your surgeon will always make your personal safety his or her number one priority.

It is important to understand a number of potential limitations to weight loss plastic surgery. Many people believe that their body can be returned to how it was earlier in their life or that it can become their dream body. Although those ideas are not unrealistic, they may be pushing it. By having realistic expectations you will not be let down if everything does not go perfectly.

The scars for the procedure can drift down, but are typically concealed by undergarments. It is possible that some of the scars maybe visible with various bathing suits and/or underwear garments alone. The procedure can be done in combination with other procedures, but your doctor will always make your safety the number one priority. Please make sure that your surgeon knows your expectations before the procedure and you understand the small but real risk.
