Inner Thigh Lift
Although an inner thigh lift can be more difficult, it is sometimes the best option to achieve optimal results. Inner and outer thigh lifts can also provide the final enhancement for a patient who has already had a tummy tuck or who simply has extra skin, dimpling, or reduced elasticity in their thighs.

Thigh Lift Procedure Overview
A thigh lift, also known as a thighplasty, is a surgical procedure that raises, firms, and tightens your thighs in proportion to your buttocks, abdomen, and legs. Excess skin is removed and the surrounding tissue is repositioned and reshaped to create a more pleasing contour. From the back view, a distinctly defined fold separates your thighs and buttock. From the front view, your thighs are smooth, highlighting the muscles, while your inner thighs are firm and flat. If you are self-conscious about your lower body appearance, a thigh lift can dramatically improve your thigh area, as well as enhance the overall appearance of your figure. If you have experienced a loss of skin elasticity in your thigh, hip, or buttock areas, a thigh lift will produce an attractive thigh and buttock area with improved contours. It is also intended to decrease irregularities in your skin surface.
Are You An Ideal Candidate For A Thigh Lift?
Thigh lifts are usually performed on men or women with large amounts of loose, hanging skin on the thighs. The goal is to return the body to a more normal appearance after loss of skin elasticity due to extreme weight loss or age-related changes. After working hard to lose a significant amount of weight, developing a secondary problem such as sagging skin can be extremely frustrating. Your skin does not always fully conform to your body’s new shape and one of the areas most affected by this problem are your thighs. If the skin in your thigh area is saggy, dimpled, flabby or has an orange peel texture, a thigh lift may be indicated. A thigh lift is also beneficial if when you lift your lax skin, the appearance of your thigh improves. If you have experienced a loss of skin elasticity in your thigh, hip, or buttock areas, a thigh lift is intended to produce more attractive thigh and buttock skin with improved contours. It is also intended to decrease irregularities in your skin’s surface.

The Differences Between A Liposuction & Lift
Although small amounts of fat may be removed along with excess skin during a thigh lift, it is not meant to remove significant fat deposits so you should be at or near your ideal weight before considering the procedure. Candidates for thigh lift surgery have extra skin that must be removed by excision. This differs from liposuction because liposuction removes only fat through small quarter-inch incisions, but no skin. When you have good skin tone and minor fat excess, liposuction alone will usually produce good results. If you have significant skin laxity from weight loss or general aging however, liposuction will not give adequate improvement and a thigh lift is necessary. Liposuction is sometimes performed in conjunction with a thigh lift to smooth and contour areas separate from the effects of the thigh lift excisions. During your initial consultation, Dr. Moelleken will evaluate your personal situation and together you will determine the best surgical plan.
