Thigh Lift Surgery Bangalore, India
A thigh lift is a surgical procedure that lifts, tightens and smoothens sagging loose skin around the thighs while also removing fatty tissue via liposuction. It is intended to remove excess tissue to leave a firmer, smoother contour and is appropriate for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight and the tissue has stretched and hangs down from the thighs (the buttocks can be treated with a buttock lift).
Procedure:
Thigh Lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia.
Pre operative assessment and essential markings are done, including the incision line. Photographs are taken.
This procedure usually takes 2-4 hours, depending on the amount of loose skin and fat to be removed.
Thigh lift or inner thigh lift consists of two incisions, one vertical along the inner thigh and the other horizontal along the groin crease. The type of incision is determined by the dimension in which there is excess skin. The length of the incisions will be determined by the amount to be removed. They are usually hidden in the groin and are not visible. Liposuction is used to remove excess fat, and excess skin is removed. After that, dissolvable sutures are used to close the remaining skin. To drain excess fluids that accumulate beneath the skin, the surgeon may need to insert drainage tubes into the incisions. After a few days, these will be removed.
Side effects:
Swelling, bruising, seroma, hematoma, wound dehiscence.
Recovery:
The length of your hospital stay is determined by the extent of your surgery. You may be required to stay in the hospital for one to two days.
- There may be significant pain and discomfort and you will be given pain relievers
- For the first few weeks, you will need to wear a tight-fitting body garment to support the area and reduce swelling.

Results:
The result of the procedure is a more sculpted, aesthetically pleasing thigh that is firmer to the touch and has tightened, smooth overlying skin. This can be seen in 1-2 months. You can benefit from thigh lift results indefinitely if you maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine.
