About Thigh Lift
Cellulite, loose skin, pockets of fat – these concerns are extremely common on the thighs. Your thighs may take center stage when you look at your legs in the mirror, when you want to wear a flirty skirt or dress, or when you see yourself in a swimsuit. This can make it hard to truly enjoy yourself and be present in your day-to-day life. But you’re not alone, and there are solutions. A thigh lift is a surgical body contouring procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from your thighs. The goal is to improve the appearance of your legs by removing the dimpled look produced by cellulite, as well as lax tissue from weight loss. A thigh lift improves the overall aesthetic of the legs by creating more attractive contours, resulting in a smoother, slimmer, and more toned appearance of the lower body.

The journey toward self-confidence can be a long one, and there are often many factors that bring you to consider cosmetic surgery. Is a thigh lift right for you? It’s important to pick the best option for your cosmetic goals, and a thigh lift is one of many options. The thigh lift may be right for you if you identify with the following.
Slimmer, More Defined Thighs
The thigh lift can get rid of stubborn fat and excess skin that obscure the natural contours of the legs. It can bring your thighs into better balance with the rest of your figure.
Reduce Chafing
If you have extra fat or skin on your inner thighs, you likely know the discomfort of chafing from walking, running, or being active. A thigh lift can reduce the size of the thighs and remove excess tissue contributing to skin irritation.
Enhance Confidence in Certain Clothing
If your thighs prevent you from wearing certain clothing items like skirts or shorts, a thigh lift can expand your wardrobe options and help you feel more confident and comfortable.
Benefits of Thigh Lift
How Can We Help You Feel Great About Your Decision?
How can the thigh lift transform your confidence? There are many benefits to the thigh lift, and Dr. Tehrani will help you learn more about the ones that best match your needs. Here are just a few.
Better Clothing Fit
It can be difficult to find clothing that accommodates your thighs if you have excess skin and fat. A thigh
lift can slim your thighs, helping you fit into your favorite clothing items again.
Long Lasting Results
A thigh lift can produce long-lasting results because it removes stretched, sagging skin and fat. As long as you remain active and eat a variety of foods, you can enjoy your results for many years to come.
Enhanced Figure
It’s normal to carry fat in your thighs, but it may cause you to look unbalanced if you don’t also carry it
elsewhere. A thigh lift can bring your whole figure into better proportion for a more balanced look.

Preparation is key to a good thigh lift result. Dr. Tehrani will provide specific instructions during your consultation and pre-operative appointment. While each patient has unique needs, some general guidelines should be followed before your surgery day. You’ll need to stop smoking for at least one month before surgery. You may need to have your medication regimen adjusted if it includes any blood-thinning medications. Before surgery day, you should appoint a trusted adult to drive you home after surgery and stay with you for at least 24 hours. Lastly, all prescribed medications should be filled and picked up before surgery day.
Inner Thigh Lift
An inner thigh lift can be accomplished in multiple ways. First, an incision is made in the groin region. Depending on how much correction is needed, the incision can be extended downward and toward the back of the thigh – or it may be extended straight down the inseam of the thigh toward the knee. In either case, the skin will be pulled taut around the thigh, and the excess skin and fat will be removed.
Outer Thigh Lift
In an outer thigh lift, an incision will be made in the groin area and stretch across the hip and onto the back, depending on the degree of lifting necessary. Dr. Tehrani will carefully separate the skin on your thigh from the underlying fat and muscle. He will then gently pull the skin upward as if you were putting on a pair of pants. The excess skin will be removed, and the remaining tissue will be redraped on the thigh, creating a firmer appearance.
Thigh Lift Recovery
After your thigh lift surgery, your legs will be swollen and sore. You may have small, plastic drains placed in the incisions to remove fluid building up under the skin – fluid can contribute to further swelling and discomfort and put you at risk of complications. Your incisions need to remain bandaged and wrapped in compression garments until Dr. Tehrani clears you to remove them. Keep your lower body movement minimal during your recovery.
Walk for short periods to promote circulation and aid healing. You may be able to return to light work after about 10 days. You can continue normal, more strenuous physical activity about four to six months after your thigh lift procedure. The results will be immediately apparent – your legs will be slimmer, and folds of excess skin will be gone.
You can begin to enjoy your favorite outfits again and explore new ones with confidence.
