The thighs have seen an unexpected boom in cosmetic enhancement surgeries such as liposuction<\/a> and thigh lifts<\/a>. Patients often want to achieve a thigh gap or slimmer thighs. Depending on the patient\u2019s anatomy, patients can achieve this with various different procedures. So, how do you know if you need a thigh lift?<\/span><\/p>\n

Thigh lift surgery is comparable to a tummy tuck, they both remove excess skin versus focusing on fat. Extra skin on the thighs can occur due to age or even pregnancy. Without the removal of this skin, it is unlikely for patients presenting with this anatomy to see a thigh gap if that is their desire.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sometimes a thigh lift is also combined with thigh liposuction. This can lead to dramatic results and completely change the thigh appearance and even impact the overall look of the body contours. Dr. Sessa can help patients determine the right thigh procedure for them during a consultation.<\/span><\/p>\n
