Thigh Lift Techniques in Los Angeles & Beverly Hills
January 28, 2009What is a Thigh Lift?
After weight loss, men and women can get sagging and rippling of their thighs that can extend from the upper thighs to the knees. Often, Los Angeles and Beverly Hills women complain that they are unable to wear swimsuits and that the loose skin rubs together between their thighs. Also, the wrinkled loose skin around the knees keeps many women from being able to wear skirts.
While the sagging of the outer thighs and the buttocks can usually be addressed with a Los Angeles Body Lift procedure that of the inner thighs cannot. A Los Angeles Thigh Lift is a procedure which lifts and tightens the loose skin of thighs — mostly that of the inner thighs.
What is a Traditional Thigh Lift? Two different types of thigh lifts can be performed depending on the extent of skin laxity. If the skin laxity and rippling is mostly limited to the upper inner thighs, and skin excess does not extend to the entire circumference of the thigh, a Traditional Thigh Lift can be performed. In this procedure the surgical scar is located in the groin crease extending to the buttock crease. This scar is very well hidden.
What is an Extended Thigh Lift?
Often, people who were once extremely obese are now left with extensive laxity of the entire thigh all the way to the knees. In these cases, an Extended Thigh Lift is performed. In addition to the scar of the groin crease, there is also a long vertical scar that extends along the inner thigh height. This vertical scar enables your Los Angeles plastic surgeon to remove the lax excessive skin of the entire thigh.
Can Thigh Lifts be Combined with Liposuction?
Yes. Both Traditional Thigh Lift and Extended Thigh Lift can often be combined with limited Los Angeles or Beverly Hills liposuction in order to better contour the legs and to reduce the size of the “saddle bags”.
