THIGH LIFT IN THE WOODLANDS
about the procedure
A thigh lift removes excess skin and fat accumulations from the inner thigh and tightens the underlying tissue. This reshapes the thighs and smoothes the skin reducing the appearance of bumps and dimples. Liposuction is commonly performed at the start of surgery, and then the excess skin is removed. The underlying tissue will be sutured to form the contours best suited to the anatomy of the patient and then the incision will be closed.

the recovery
If you have a very sedentary job, you should be able to return to work after the first week, once you have had your follow-up with your doctor. Swelling will decrease gradually over a 6 week period. Strenuous exercise should be avoided until you get the clearance from your doctor.
The incisions will usually look their best in the first few weeks after surgery and then will go through a temporary phase for several months where they will be more pink or red and then gradually return to a softer, flatter, more pale appearance usually over the last 6-12 months after surgery. It is important to shield the scars from the sun, either by avoiding it altogether or using a sunblock.
