Thighplasty San Antonio, TX | San Antonio Plastic Surgery Center

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

A thigh lift, or thighplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin from the inner thigh region. This transformative procedure is particularly beneficial for patients who have experienced significant weight loss and have substantial loose, sagging skin along their inner thighs.

Surgical Technique

San Antonio Plastic Surgery Center employs advanced surgical techniques to address thigh contour concerns. The procedure typically involves:

• Strategic skin excision to remove excess tissue
• Optional liposuction to enhance skin mobilization
• Precise surgical planning to minimize scarring

Procedure Characteristics

The thigh lift can result in a scar that may extend along the entire thigh length, depending on the volume of skin removed. Shorter incisions are possible for lesser skin laxity. The primary goal is achieving a tightened, more youthful appearance of the inner thigh.

Thigh Lift Candidacy Considerations

Ideal candidates for a thigh lift in San Antonio typically include individuals who have:

• Experienced massive weight loss
• Excessive loose and sagging inner thigh skin
• Stable weight and overall good health

Patient Evaluation Criteria

Not all patients are immediate candidates for thigh lift surgery. Factors that might exclude a patient include active smoking, history of poor wound healing, increased bleeding risks, or nutritional deficiencies.

Comprehensive Patient Assessment

San Antonio Plastic Surgery Center provides a thorough consultation process that includes a detailed assessment of skin volume, location of excess tissue, and overall patient health. The surgical team develops a personalized treatment strategy focused on achieving optimal cosmetic outcomes while prioritizing patient safety.
