Thigh Lift (Thighplasty)
Age: 52 Thigh Lift (Thighplasty)
This female patient had a larger volume liposuction performed by us several years ago. It decreased her size considerably.
After the liposuction, she developed some loose skin at her posterior thighs (we predicted this because her skin quality was not ideal). She felt that her posterior was hanging and she wanted to know what we could do to improve the area. Therefore, we performed a posterior thigh lift. Her well placed scar resides in the normal buttock crease. She is very pleased with the difference (although she admits that the posterior thigh lift was the most uncomfortable procedure that we performed on her). Note the improvement in the skin and “fat folds” in the buttock crease. Her overall mid-posterior thigh contour is greatly improved.
The scars were red at first and improved considerably after a year.
