Thigh Lifts

Is This You?

Do you feel uncomfortable about excess hanging skin on your legs? Are you self-conscious about wrinkly hanging skin on your thighs? If so, then body contouring procedures like thigh lifts may be able to help you get the smooth, youthful-looking skin you want.​

Thigh Lifts

Thigh lifts are procedures for getting rid of loose, wrinkly skin in the upper thighs. There are two types of thigh lifts: an inner thigh lift and an outer thigh lift. In both procedures, liposuction can be used to remove any excess fat that may be remaining. An outer thigh lift is a very successful procedure for getting rid of loose, excess skin in the outer thigh region. It is often combined with a tummy tuck (typically a belt or circumferential tummy tuck) as part of a lower body lift, which often includes a buttock lift.​

Thigh Lift Procedure

An inner thigh lift may be performed as a standalone procedure to address loose excess skin in the inner thigh or in combination with other lower body lift procedures. This procedure gives less outstanding results. Although it does reduce the appearance of loose or sagging skin and many people are happy with the results, it cannot be counted on to completely correct wrinkling in the inner thigh. The more effective medial thigh lift has an incision down the inner thigh almost to the knee.

In most cases, count on taking two weeks off work for recovery. It will probably be about six weeks or more before you are able to return to a more strenuous workout schedule. The results should be visible relatively soon after returning to work.​

Why Choose Feagin & Owen for Your Thigh Lift?

Surgical body contouring procedures depend heavily on the artistry, training, and experience of the surgeons for safety and quality results. If you are considering a thigh lift, you don’t want to risk getting a bad result that will only make you feel more self-conscious than before. Never go with a surgeon who is offering discount rates because he or she is not able to provide consistent quality. Instead, work with a board-certified plastic surgeon whose talent, education, and experience give you confidence.

Dr. Charles Feagin and Dr. William Owen are board-certified plastic surgeons with 60 years of combined experience providing quality plastic surgery results. You can see examples of their outstanding work in our Before & After gallery.
