Nuremberg clinic for aesthetic plastic surgery Dr. Kunze

Thigh Lift (Thighplasty) is often done combined with a liposuction on the inside of the thigh.
An incision is made in the upper inner thighs into the lower inner thigh the scar being located preferably in the upper groin crease or the buttocks crease.

Once the excess fat is removed, the amount of which has to be carefully determined by the surgeon, the remaining deeper layers of tissue will then be firmly braced to the groin ligament and the ischium hump, to avoid from drifting apart. This method will naturally involve a longer recovery period and a longer lasting sitting discomfort to the patient.

As the surgery is performed on an area of the body that is vulnerable to infection despite careful hygiene and disinfection, wound healing problems (infections) cannot be excluded.
