Thigh Lift in Athens

Thigh Lift Overview

A thigh lift is the ideal procedure for women and men who are bothered by the saggy and uneven appearance of their thighs. A thigh focuses on removing excess loose skin and pockets of fat from around the thighs in order to give them a slimmer, tighter, and more toned appearance.

At Parker Plastic Surgery, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the personalized surgical care they need. Dr. James Parker is a board-certified plastic surgeon who strives to offer the best results Athens has to offer.

The Benefits of a Thigh Lift

There are a variety of factors that can cause the thighs to take on a saggy and lumpy appearance. Aging can cause skin laxity around the thighs and small pockets of stubborn fat can form around the thighs over the course of years. Major weight loss can also leave behind loose and saggy skin around the thighs that can cause some to feel self-conscious about their appearance. It eliminates excess tissue and fat in order to enhance the overall appearance of the thighs.

Thigh Lift Surgery

It is a surgery that reshapes thighs by reducing excess skin and fat resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs. The incisions and pattern vary based on the area or areas to be treated. For a medial thigh lift, the incisions are placed in the groin extending downward and wrapping around the back of the thigh. The incisions for an outer thigh lift start at the groin and extend upward and over the hip. Both types of incisions can usually be hidden by most types of clothing or swimsuits.
