Is a Thigh and Body Lift Right for Me?

A thigh and body lift is a good option if:

  • You have had a large weight loss, either through bariatric surgery or through dieting
  • You have sagging skin circumferentially
  • Your buttocks have fallen and are misshapen
  • You can accept a scar low on the abdomen, extending around the low back
  • The skin on your thighs appears wrinkled due to sagging
  • You have excess fat on the inner or outer thighs

What is an Upper and Lower Body Lift?

An upper body lift addresses sagging skin and excess fat on the arms, breasts, and back. A lower body lift is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the:

  • Abdominal area
  • Mons pubis (area above the genitals)
  • Flanks
  • Buttocks
  • Outer thigh
  • Posterior thigh
  • Anterior thigh, to a lesser extent

What Are Inner and Outer Thigh Lifts?

Thighplasty removes excess skin and fat from the inner and outer thighs to give them a more contoured appearance.

Do You Want to Know How to Get a Thigh Gap?

Dr. Palmer works with many people who are considering thigh surgery to achieve a gap between their legs, known as a “thigh gap.” While surgery may help in many cases, individual anatomy does play a role.

How is a Thigh and Body Lift Performed?

Each thigh and body lift is tailored to the unique needs of the patient; therefore, Dr. Palmer will explain the surgical plan for your thigh and body lift during the consultation.

What is Thigh and Body Lift Recovery Like?

All patients are seen back the day after surgery. This helps with early mobilization, which helps reduce post operative complications. If all looks good the day after surgery, the patient is seen in one week, then two weeks, and then one month. Because of the extent of the procedure, you should expect to take three to six weeks off from work for complete recovery. At three months, most of the swelling should have resolved and a final outcome can be fully assessed. Side effects include bruising, swelling, and slight numbness in the treatment areas. Infection is very rare, but you will be on antibiotics for a week afterward. Dr. Palmer will give you detailed and personalized post-surgery instructions prior to your procedure.

Dr. Palmer helps men and women in Washington DC, Fredericksburg, Stafford, Richmond, Charlottesville, and the nearby communities in Virginia remedy extra skin and fat from the thighs and body.
