Overview
What is a thigh lift?
When the thighs are out of proportion, a thigh lift restores balance to the lower body. The surgeon removes fat, skin, and tissue, leaving a firmer, more youthful shape. The procedure can contour both the inner and outer thighs at once. Our team at Allure Plastic Surgery tailors every thigh lift to your frame and your goals.
What are the different types of thigh lifts?
Inner (medial) thigh lift – Here, excess fat, skin, and tissue are removed from the inner thigh area. The inner thigh skin is also tightened during the procedure to combat age-related ptosis. An incision is made, reaching from the groin backward towards the buttocks.
Outer (bilateral) thigh lift – During this procedure, the outer thighs are slimmed and reshaped. The incision is made within the groin area, extending towards the hips and lower back. A bilateral thigh lift is often performed for clients after massive weight loss to excise large amounts of excess sagging skin.
What happens during the procedure?
A thigh lift at Allure Plastic Surgery is performed at our accredited facility under anesthesia and takes about 1-2 hours. Incisions are placed discreetly in the groin area. The surgeon then removes excess skin, fat, and tissue to create a slimmer, more flattering thigh. Liposuction may be used alongside it to sharpen the final result.

- A more youthful-looking physique
- Increased wardrobe options
- Enhanced security in one’s appearance

Is It Right For You
Am I a good candidate for the thigh lift procedure?
A thigh lift might be the ideal solution for you if:
- You are physically and emotionally healthy
- You are free from any significant medical concerns
- You are willing to follow your surgeon’s instructions
- You are unhappy with the appearance of your thighs
- Your thighs are disproportionate to the rest of your body
- You have tried dieting and exercise to no avail
- You are a non-smoker, or you’re willing to quit before and after surgery
- You are realistic in your expectations for your results
What will my recovery entail?
For most patients, thigh lift recovery is quick and manageable, helped by the conservative approach our surgeons use. As with any surgery, expect some swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the site. This is normal and fades within 7-10 days.
You will wear a compression garment early in recovery to reduce swelling and protect your new shape. Our team provides pain medication and antibiotics after surgery, along with a detailed aftercare plan.
