Reshape your Upper Thighs
A thigh lift is a surgical procedure that removes the excess skin and fat from the thigh.
Patients will often undergo a thigh lift when they have lost a significant amount of weight. The loss of skin elasticity is magnified after significant weight loss. Most surgical techniques focus on excision of excess skin and tightening what remains.

The procedure usually requires 2-3 hours to complete. Incisions are placed in the natural crease between the thigh and pubic area. In patients with massive weight loss, a vertical incision down the inside part of the thigh may be required. Drains may be used depending on the specific procedure.
