THIGH LIFT

Shapely legs are a distinctive feature of health, vitality and beauty. In Chicago, a thigh lift removes excess fat, tightens the skin and re-contours the upper leg. Thigh lifts can be combined with other procedures like liposuction or a tummy tuck at David Shifrin MD. We strive to deliver the best thigh lifts Chicago has to offer. Most thigh lifts are performed on the inner thigh, with scars hidden in the groin crease for those with moderate laxity. For those with more extensive laxity such as after a massive weight loss, the scar is placed vertically along the inner length of the thigh. Through these incisions, excess skin and fat are removed, and remaining tissue is repositioned to create a smoother, firmer thigh. Gravity and aging are factors that contribute to loss of shape and contour. For others who have lost a significant amount of weight, the skin can sag, ripple and bunch in ways that cannot be improved without surgery. Thigh lift cosmetic surgery may be a good option for women and men who find themselves in these situations.
