Femoroplasty (Thigh Lift)
Smoothness. Tightness. Elegant thighs.
"Femoroplasty (Thigh Lift) removes sagging skin and excess fat tissue from the thigh region — typically following major weight loss or age-related changes. The result is smooth, firm, and aesthetically contoured thighs."
Your journey
Consultation & Planning
Assessment of skin elasticity and tissue distribution on the inner or outer thighs. Selecting the surgical approach.
Surgical Marking
Precise standing pre-operative marking, placing incisions within natural groin creases for optimal concealment.
Liposuction & Resection
Where needed, excess fat is liposuctioned, followed by precise resection of the sagging skin-fat apron.
Fixation & Suturing
Deep fascia and underlying tissues are anchored and lifted, followed by meticulous cosmetic suturing.
Recovery Stage
Special compression garments are worn. As swelling subsides, an ideal and smooth thigh silhouette is revealed.
Rehabilitation
Inpatient
1–2 days in hospital. Rest, drains, and pain management care.
Home rest
Restricted physical activity. Wearing compression garments 24/7.
Light activity
Gradual return to desk work and light walking.
Lifting restrictions
Discontinuing compression garments. Light sports activities permitted.
Final contour
All swelling resolves. Thighs achieve their final contoured and toned shape.
Scar progression
How the scar changes — from surgery to final result
Scars are placed within natural skin folds and become virtually unnoticeable over time. Proper care and sun protection speed up the fading process. For most patients, the scar blends with the surrounding skin within 12–18 months.
Suture removal
The scar is pink-red and slightly raised. Scar care begins — silicone gel or tape.
Active healing
Colour darkens to deep pink. The scar may thicken — this is normal. Avoid sun exposure and wear compression garments.
Maturation
The scar lightens, softens, and flattens. Itching and heightened sensitivity fade.
Final appearance
The scar takes on a silvery-beige tone and becomes barely visible, aligning with underwear lines.
