Thigh Lift Surgery in Torrance

We all have our "problem" areas when it comes to our bodies' shapes and sizes. Problem areas that do not respond to diet or exercises. Problem areas that make us groan when we look in the mirror. Where are these problem areas? Well, they could be anywhere, but polls have shown that the majority of women would say one word: thighs. If you have any questions about Thigh Lift Surgery, call us at (310) 784-0644 in Torrance today or request a consultation to meet with a physician to discuss your cosmetic surgery questions.

The thighs are a tricky area to tone. Sometimes, in fact, they are impossible to shape up. If you are genetically predisposed to carry excess fat cells in your thighs, your battle for trim upper legs may be a battle lost. For people who have recently lost a lot of weight - especially through gastric bypass surgery, they may find that their bodies are smaller, but their skin has not "shrunk" to hug their new trim figures. This is especially true in the thigh area where skin is prone to droop and sag. Fortunately, there is a solution: Thigh Lift Surgery.

Thigh Lift surgery is a procedure to help people with excessive thigh skin and tissue. By removing excess skin and fat cells, the thighs can be "tightened" and skin can once again become firm and taut over the body.

About Thigh Lift Surgery

The type of surgery or extent of surgery is determined by the individual's circumstances. People with excess fat and excellent skin elasticity may only need liposuction. Others who may suffer from poor skin elasticity, droopy or saggy skin may need a Thigh Lift. Most commonly performed on an out-patient basis, the surgery typically lasts two hours and does not require the patient to spend the night in the hospital.

The placement and length of the incisions will depend on the individual. For some, easily concealable incisions are placed in the skin fold of the buttocks or along the bikini line. For others, longer, more visible incisions may be required. Excess skin and tissue is removed and ligaments are tightened, if needed.

The first two weeks after surgery are for recovery. You'll need time off from work, won't be able to drive and will wear compression garments that will help to minimize swelling and promote healing. Most people can return to their jobs after two weeks, but all patients are advised to take it easy for the first six weeks after surgery. In order to allow your body to heal properly you will need to refrain from heavy exertion or stress on your legs.

Oversized or unattractive thighs have burdened many women. Getting the leg shape you want can improve self-esteem as well as provide an added confidence boost. If you are unhappy with the size of your thighs or if you have lost a lot of weight and suffer from sagging skin, help could be right around the corner. Give our office a call to learn more about Liposuction and Thigh Lift to find out if this could be a good solution for you.

If you are seriously considering plastic surgery or would just like to meet with one of the doctors to discuss the procedure you are interested in, please contact us at the Torrance office at (310) 784-0644 or request a consultation.
