Thigh Lift in Evans, GA | Southeastern Aesthetic Surgery, Troy Austin, MD

Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery

A thigh lift is a transformative surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate and reshape the thighs by addressing excess skin and fatty deposits. Performed by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Troy Austin, this procedure helps patients in Evans, Augusta, and surrounding Georgia communities achieve a more toned and defined lower body contour.

What Can a Thigh Lift Accomplish?

• Remove loose, hanging skin after significant weight loss
• Eliminate stubborn fat pockets in the thigh region
• Create a more streamlined and proportionate lower body silhouette
• Improve clothing fit and personal confidence

Ideal Candidates for Thigh Lift Surgery

Thigh lift surgery is most suitable for patients who:

• Are in good overall health
• Maintain a stable weight close to their ideal body weight
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
• Struggle with excess skin or fatty bulges in the thigh area

Surgical Procedure Details

The thigh lift procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes three to four hours. Dr. Austin strategically makes incisions along the inner thigh to remove excess fat and skin. Liposuction may be incorporated to optimize body sculpting and achieve desired contours.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect some initial swelling and discomfort, which naturally subsides over time. A compressive support garment must be worn for three to four weeks to ensure optimal healing. Patients can gradually resume normal physical activities after this initial recovery period.

Mini Thigh Lift Option

For patients with minimal skin excess, a mini thigh lift offers a less extensive surgical approach. This procedure focuses on reducing a small amount of skin from the upper thigh region, providing a subtle yet effective body contouring solution.

Potential Outcomes

While a thigh lift is not a cellulite treatment, many patients experience an improvement in skin texture and appearance. The procedure smooths away skin irregularities by pulling the skin taut over natural body contours.
