Thigh Lift Melbourne

Patients who have lost a significant amount of weight resulting in loose inner thigh tissue are the ideal candidates for a thigh lift. Ageing with loss of skin elasticity can also cause excess tissue laxity in the inner thigh and may sought out a thigh lift. 

About Thigh Lift Surgery 

This procedure generally takes 3 to 4 hours under general anaesthesia. 

The incision and pattern depend on the amount and location of excess skin to be removed. The scars are generally placed on the inner surface of the thigh and may extend from the groin to just above the knee.  

Patients often stay 1 to 2 nights in hospital. Drain tubes may need to stay in for 1 to 2 weeks. You will need to wear compression garments for at least 12 weeks. 

During A Thigh Lift Surgery Consultation

Before you consider surgery, it is important that you have achieved a stable weight, do not smoke, and do not have medical conditions that significantly affect wound healing. You should also expect realistic results from the surgery.

During the consultation, Dr Sally Ng will examine your condition and determine whether a thigh lift can address your concerns.
