Thigh lift procedure is a cosmetic operation performed with different techniques.
Its goal is to improve the appearance of the thigh area, remove wrinkles, and get rid of some amounts of fat that didn't respond to diets or exercise, which may spoil the shape of the thighs.
Fat removal is not considered a primary goal in this operation. It is preferred to perform liposuction when accumulating large amounts of fat in the thigh area.
This operation is suitable in the following cases:
● People with stable weight are not obese, with a body mass index of less than 30.
● People in good health don't suffer from any organic diseases.
● People who suffer from noticeable sagging and prominent wrinkles, whether in the outer or inner part of the thighs.
● People who follow a healthy lifestyle eat healthy food and exercise regularly.
● Non-smokers, as in most surgical and cosmetic procedures.
● Patient with full awareness of expected results and possible complications.
Thigh lift operation can be done in different techniques:
there are two types of surgical thigh lift operation, including an inner thigh lift that targets the upper inner part of the thigh, where a surgical incision is made in the area where the thigh meets the torso area, through which part of the fat is removed, the excess skin is cut, and the limbs are reinstalled.
Outer thigh lift that targets the front and outer area of the thigh, where the surgical incision is made in the outer zone of the thigh, through which a quantity of fat is removed, the skin is tightened and reinstalled again, and this type is often considered highly suitable in most cases of sagging that tracks significant weight loss.
this technique is ideal for women who want to get rid of cellulite and sagging skin effectively and quickly. It is one technique that suits almost everyone without exception, and it also carries the least amount of potential risks.
this technique is performed by injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the thighs. It helps stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which improves the appearance of the skin and reduces the appearance of wrinkles on its surface.
by shining radio waves on specific areas of the skin, these waves increase the skin's temperature and thus help burn fat, improve the appearance of the skin and increase its smoothness.
ultrasound waves penetrate the layers of the skin, reach the deeper layers, then break up fat cells by heat and stimulate the secretion of collagen responsible for increasing skin elasticity.
Before undergoing the operation, several precautions are taken:
Thigh lift surgery begins with the anesthesia stage, where doctors often perform general anesthesia in such operations. This stage is followed by the step of making the surgical incision, whose location, length, and shape vary according to the patient's condition.
After that, the doctor begins by removing unwanted fat, tightening the skin, removing the excess parts, then reinstalling the skin with a specific type of fine surgical sutures.
The recovery period after the operation usually requires two weeks to return to normal life activities. Still, more challenging activities that require more effort may require 4 to 6 weeks. In the first weeks after the operations, doctors recommend using a particular type of pressure bandage for at least four weeks to prevent the swelling and redness around the incision site. The doctor may also prescribe some drugs that help speed up the healing process and reduce swelling.
