Pregnancy, aging or weight changes can cause sagging inside the thigh. Unfortunately, diet and exercise cannot treat sagging inner thighs. Fortunately, with thighplasty or thigh lift surgery you can regain the appearance of slimmer and tighter looking thighs.
In some cases there is no sagging on the thigh, but there is lubrication. In this case, laser liposuction is a better method. However, if there is sagging in the part with lubrication, laser liposuction and thighplasty are performed.
Thighplasty is performed by removing excess fat and excess skin from the thighs. This procedure is performed under local anaesthesia or general anaesthesia. The procedure takes approximately 1-2 hours.
An incision is made from the groin area to the inside of the thigh. The incision allows for fat tissue to be removed. Excess skin is then removed and the skin is stretched and sewed. Traces remain in the groin area and inside the thigh, and a very unclear trail will become obscure in the future.
Preoperative care
A comprehensive assessment of your health and area to be treated is conducted with your surgeon prior to the surgery. This will assist in creating a surgery plan.
It is advised that smoking should be avoided before surgery. Certain medications should also be stopped.
Postoperative care
After surgery, the patient has to stay in the hospital for a few days. Painkillers will be prescribed to avoid the possibility of pain and discomfort.
In the first few weeks it is necessary to avoid excessive movements. Strenuous physical activity should be avoided for several months.
It is necessary to use a corset for up to one month.
Results will become visible after 6-12 months.
