Our Procedure
A Thigh Lift, or thighplasty, is a transformative surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the thighs, creating smoother, more proportionate contours. This procedure addresses the common concern of sagging thigh skin, which can result from significant weight loss, aging, or genetic factors that resist diet and exercise.
Unlike thigh liposuction which only removes fat, a thigh lift addresses both excess skin and fat, making it ideal for patients with moderate to severe skin laxity. The procedure can target the inner thighs, outer thighs, or circumferential thigh area, depending on your specific concerns and aesthetic goals.
At Neoderma Clinica, our experienced plastic surgeons customize each thigh lift to meet your specific needs, whether you require a minimal incision technique for mild laxity or a more extensive approach for significant skin excess. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and requires dedicated recovery time to ensure optimal results.

After your Thigh Lift procedure:
Thigh liposuction and thigh lift (thighplasty) address different concerns. Liposuction only removes excess fat through small incisions, resulting in minimal scarring. It's ideal for patients with good skin elasticity who primarily have excess fat. A thigh lift removes both excess skin and fat through longer incisions, resulting in more visible scarring. It's appropriate for patients with moderate to severe skin laxity, often after significant weight loss or due to aging. In some cases, these procedures can be combined for optimal results—liposuction to remove fat and a thigh lift to address skin laxity.
