Thigh Lift
Arnold Breitbart, M.D., offers thigh lift to patients with excess skin of their thighs, typically as a result of weight loss or the natural effects of aging.

Thigh Lift Procedure
To reshape the contours of the inner thigh, Dr. Breitbart will typically make an incision in the groin crease, and achieve an inner thigh lift by removing skin excess and tightening the inner thigh. Outer thigh tightening can be achieved as part of a lower body lift. In both types of procedures, incisions are strategically placed so that any scarring after surgery will be as inconspicuous as possible, even when wearing a bathing suit.
Recovery from Thigh Lift
Patients should plan to spend approximately two weeks recovering from thigh lift surgery before returning to work and should not vigorously exercise for a month following the procedure.

Thigh Lift FAQs
Thigh lift surgery takes approximately two to three hours to complete. The surgery can be performed either as an outpatient surgery procedure, or in the hospital with an overnight stay.
Incisions are usually made within the groin crease area to minimize scarring. In some patients with more substantial skin excess, a longitudinal incision along the inner thigh may be necessary to achieve optimal contour.
Typically, patients need a minimum of ten days and it is advisable to rest for two weeks before resuming work. Patients should avoid strenuous exercise for a period of one month following the procedure.
The results are typically long lasting as long as the person maintains a healthy weight. You can enjoy shapely and slimmer thighs with improved contours and definition.
