Thigh Lift Fredericksburg, VA | Dr. Harold C. Bautista, MD

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

Losing significant weight is an impressive accomplishment that sometimes requires additional body contouring. For individuals with excess skin on their thighs, a thigh lift surgery (thighplasty) can complete their body transformation. Plastic surgeons at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg offer specialized thigh lift procedures that trim away loose skin on inner and outer thighs to create a firmer, more contoured appearance.

Surgical Technique for Thigh Lift

Thigh lift surgery involves a strategic surgical approach to remove excess skin and reshape the thigh area. The procedure typically includes:

• Anesthesia administration for patient comfort
• Strategic incision placement near the thigh's upper crease
• Optional liposuction to eliminate isolated fat pockets
• Skin trimming and upward stretching
• Precise suturing for optimal healing

Benefits of Thigh Lift Surgery

A personalized thigh lift at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg offers multiple restorative advantages:

• Enhanced physical comfort by reducing skin friction
• Improved self-confidence and body image
• Better clothing fit and style options
• Improved leg proportion and balance
• Reduction of cellulite and stretch marks

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect a recovery period of 1-2 weeks, with initial costs starting around $6,300. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle will help preserve surgical results long-term.

Procedure Considerations

Thigh lift surgery can be combined with other body contouring procedures like tummy tucks or lower body lifts. During the initial consultation, surgeons will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to individual goals.
