Achieve firmer, more youthful upper thighs
A thigh lift is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the thighs by removing excess skin and fat. This procedure targets areas with sagging or loose skin, often resulting from weight loss, aging, or genetics. During the surgery, incisions are made in discreet locations, typically along the inner thigh or groin, to minimize visible scarring. The excess skin and fat are then removed, and the remaining tissue is tightened to create a smoother, more contoured thigh. The result is a firmer and more youthful leg appearance.

Your thigh lift experience
Consultation
During your initial consultation with Dr. Colgrove, you’ll discuss your aesthetic goals and concerns. He will evaluate your thighs, review your medical history, and explain the thigh lift procedure in detail. He will also discuss your options, including incision locations and expected outcomes. To help visualize your potential results, Dr. Colgrove can show you before-and-after photos of previous patients. This ensures you are confident in your decision.
Surgery
On the day of your surgery, you will be welcomed into our AAAASF-accredited outpatient surgery center. Dr. Colgrove will perform your thigh lift under general anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable throughout. The surgery typically involves making incisions in discreet locations to minimize visible scarring. Dr. Colgrove will remove excess skin and fat and then tighten the remaining tissue to enhance the contour of your thighs. The procedure usually takes a few hours, and you will be closely monitored as you recover from anesthesia.
Recovery
After your thigh lift, you may experience some bruising, swelling, and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication. You might have drains placed to help with fluid buildup, which are usually removed within a few days. Wearing a compression garment will help support your thighs and reduce swelling. Most patients can return to light activities within two to three weeks, but you should avoid strenuous exercise for up to six weeks. Full recovery takes around six to twelve weeks.
Results
Your final results will become evident as swelling subsides and your thighs continue to heal. While initial improvements are visible within a few weeks, the complete and final results are typically seen in about six months. The enhanced contour and smoother skin will provide lasting benefits, allowing you to enjoy a more toned appearance.
