What Is a Thigh Lift?

A thigh lift, also known as thighplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at removing excess skin and fat from the upper legs. Over time, factors like significant weight changes, aging, or genetics can lead to sagging and dimpled skin that resists diet and exercise. By excising this surplus tissue and tightening the underlying structures, a thigh lift in Columbus creates a firmer, more contoured appearance that enhances overall body balance. At pēkomd®, our board-certified surgeons develop customized plans that consider your unique anatomy and desired outcome, ensuring the results look natural and feel harmonious with your body.

Benefits of a Thigh Lift

A thigh lift in Columbus can offer numerous benefits, including:

  • Reduced loose skin
  • Enhanced leg contours
  • Improved firmness and tone
  • Increased comfort in clothing
  • Reduced chafing between thighs
  • Better overall body balance
  • Boosted self-confidence
  • Long-lasting, natural results

What to Expect During Your Thigh Lift Procedure at pēkomd®

Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation at our Columbus office, where our board-certified providers review your medical history and assess your upper leg anatomy. We'll discuss your goals and recommend a tailored approach—whether you require minimal incisions around the groin or a more extensive procedure with integrated liposuction for targeted fat removal. On the day of surgery, you'll arrive at our accredited facility, where safety and comfort are our priorities. Under general anesthesia, discreet incisions are made, and excess tissue is carefully removed. The remaining skin is then re-draped and sutured to produce a tighter, smoother thigh contour. After the procedure, you will be monitored in our recovery area and provided with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing.

Recovering After Your Thigh Lift Surgery

Recovery timelines vary, but most patients in Columbus experience moderate swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort for the first one to two weeks. Pain is generally manageable with medication, and a compression garment may be recommended to support the healing tissues. Light activities can typically be resumed within one to two weeks, though strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least four to six weeks. Follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress, gradually revealing the refined contours of your thighs as the swelling diminishes.

Are You an Ideal Candidate for a Thigh Lift?

A thigh lift in Columbus is well-suited for individuals who are in good overall health, maintain a relatively stable weight, and struggle with excess, sagging skin on the upper legs. It's important to have realistic expectations—this procedure improves contours but isn't a substitute for weight loss. During your consultation, our board-certified providers will evaluate your skin quality, health history, and aesthetic goals to ensure that the procedure aligns with your needs. If you're troubled by persistent loose skin that isn't addressed by exercise alone, you may be an excellent candidate for a customized thigh lift.
