If there is visible excess skin on the thighs, a thigh lift is indicated. Excess skin is often the result of rapid and significant weight loss. Another reason for tightening is the loosening of the connective tissue as a result of the aging process.
A thigh lift is used to remove excess skin and contour the thighs. Liposuction is often performed in addition to tightening procedures to achieve a youthful, even result. Major weight fluctuations and the natural aging of the skin can cause thighs to lose their tight silhouette. Loose skin on the legs can be improved with a thigh lift. The goal of the operation is youthful, strong legs.

The leg skin loses its elasticity due to gravity and the aging process. As a result, sagging of the leg skin occurs. In addition, frequent weight gain can also be counted among the reasons for sagging legs. Thigh lift surgery removes excess skin folds and fat accumulations on the upper and inner sides of the legs. If you want to remove excess weight in other areas of your body, we also have other operations such as: Mummy Makeover for women and Gynecomastia for men.
Leg sagging can also cause the problem of abdominal sagging. This is because leg sagging also affects the abdomen. As a result, both a thigh lift and a tummy tuck can be performed in a single operation. Depending on the patient’s decision, it is possible to benefit from both procedures through a single healing process.
The price of a thigh lift varies from patient to patient. Patient needs are also one of the factors that affect the price. Contact us for more details on prices.
