Thigh lift = surgery: Thigh lift surgery results in improvement in thigh contour that is permanent when done properly. The are a variety of thigh lift scar patterns depending on the degree of skin laxity being addressed.

skin elasticity : A thigh lift is performed on patients after weight loss and in those with poor skin elasticity. Often there are striae and cellulite. The lift will last longer if there is no further change in weight, if the skin is kept hydrated/nourished, and if the hormones are pre-menopausal. After menopause with the drying of the skin, the thigh lift lasts a shorter time. Try to keep underlying muscle in tone.
