What does a thigh lift accomplish?

Most men and women who visit with Dr. Frank Ferraro are considering a thigh lift for the treatment of excess skin that typically occurs with significant weight loss. This excess skin will often sag and be an embarrassing side effect of massive changes in weight. The skin may impact one’s self-confidence while also causing difficulties with finding clothes that fit properly or contributing to the formation of skin rashes. During the procedure, the plastic surgeon will remove excess skin to tighten and firm the thigh area, ensuring a more pleasing contour while eliminating problems resulting from sagging skin.

What can I expect after the procedure?

Our patients at the Plastic Surgery Specialists of New Jersey find that the thigh lift can provide high rates of satisfaction for those who undergo treatment. The thigh lift is performed under general anesthetics, and patients should allow plenty of time off of work, school, and social activities to heal properly.
