Candidates For Thigh Lift

A thigh lift can address loose, saggy, crepey skin that has lost its elasticity due to the natural process of aging. Individuals who have experienced a massive weight loss are normally left with an excess of loose skin that hangs off their thighs. Undergoing a thigh lift after weight loss can help individuals regain their confidence and can even improve their quality of life.

In addition to the unappealing aesthetics, this loose skin can result in chronic rashes on the inner thigh or uncomfortable chafing. Significant amounts of loose skin can even impede an individual’s ability to fit into certain types of clothing. Generally, liposuction will accompany a thigh lift which can help reduce the appearance of cellulite.
