Introduction
Thighs can be tough to tone, even with dedicated workouts and a healthy lifestyle. For many people, loose skin or stubborn fat can linger, especially after weight loss or over time with aging. A thigh lift is a surgical solution designed to tighten and reshape the upper legs for a sleeker, more contoured look.
At Kachare Plastic Surgery in Greenville, NC, Dr. Swapnil Kachare, our triple board-certified plastic surgeon, offers this to help his patients refine their silhouettes and enjoy smoother, firmer thighs.
A thigh lift removes excess skin and fat from thighs, making them more toned and contoured.
Dr. Kachare achieves this by carefully removing the excess tissue and tightening the remaining skin to enhance the shape and firmness of your thighs.
A thigh lift offers a smoother and firmer appearance in the thigh area.
Along with aesthetic improvements, a thigh lift can also increase comfort by eliminating the friction caused by excess skin. It can also help enhance your body proportions, making your thighs look more defined and balanced.
A thigh lift is for those who have excess skin and fat in the thigh area that doesn’t improve with exercise or weight loss.
If you have realistic expectations and are looking to improve the contour and firmness of your thighs, a thigh lift could be an excellent solution to help you achieve your desired look.
The first step toward a thigh lift is scheduling a private consultation with our triple board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Kachare, at Kachare Plastic Surgery in Greenville, NC.
You’ll discuss your concerns, goals, and what you hope to achieve with the procedure. Dr. Kachare will evaluate your skin quality, overall health, and medical history to determine if a thigh lift is the right option for you.
He’ll also explain the surgical process in detail, go over what to expect during recovery, and answer any questions you may have. If you’re a good candidate, a personalized treatment plan will be created for you—tailored to fit your body and goals. From there, you can decide when you’d like to move forward and schedule your surgery date.
After arriving at the surgical center, you’ll be given anesthesia, and Dr. Kachare will carefully mark the areas where your excess skin and fat will be removed.
The excess skin and tissue will then be removed, and your remaining skin will be tightened for a firmer, more toned appearance.
After the surgery is complete, you’ll be monitored in a recovery area.
In the first few days after surgery, it’s normal to experience some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort—these symptoms can be controlled with prescribed pain medication and by following Dr. Kachare’s post-op instructions closely. You’ll likely be wearing a compression garment to help support your new contours as your body heals.
While light walking is encouraged soon after surgery to promote circulation, heavy lifting and exercise are prohibited for several weeks.
Most patients feel ready to return to work and normal daily routines within 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the nature of your job and your personal healing process.
The cost of a thigh lift in Greenville, NC, generally ranges from $7,500 to $15,000.
