The way to shapely and slim thighs
Thigh lift is a surgical procedure that involves reshaping the thighs by removing fat tissue and excess skin. Before the operation, a medical consultation is carried out, during which the surgeon measures the thighs and informs the patient about possible skin incisions. If thigh lift surgery is to cover only a small area of skin, the scar will only appear in the groin area. The procedure can be performed under general or local anesthesia. The incision, ranging from a few centimeters to 20 cm in length (depending on the extent of the procedure) is located so that it is not visible when the leg is in a normal position — it is most often made in the groin along the lateral edge of the pubic hair area and further down the inner thigh. Drains are left under the skin. The operation ends with the application of a compression bandage to prevent hematomas. The stitches are removed after 14 days. The thighs become slim, shapely, and firm.
Within a few days after the procedure, the patient may complain of discomfort and pain requiring oral painkillers. Most bruising subsides within 10-14 days, while swelling persists for one to three months. Restriction of physical activity for about two months is recommended. A quick and smooth recovery is aided by our proprietary Comprehensive Perioperative Care program.
