Thigh & Buttock Lift

A well-toned lower body with smooth contours often is a sign of fitness achieved by healthy diet and exercise. But exercise alone cannot always achieve desired results for people who have loose, sagging skin and uneven contours. Aging, sun damage, pregnancy and significant fluctuations in weight as well as genetic factors may contribute to poor tissue elasticity and can result in sagging of the buttocks and thighs.

If you desire a firmer, more youthful-looking lower body contour, then a surgical thigh and/or buttock lift may help achieve your goals. It improves the skin sag in the thigh and buttock areas.

Excess sagging fat and skin are removed to treat conditions caused in part by poor tissue elasticity. In addition, the procedure(s) can sometimes improve a dimpled, irregular skin surface, commonly known as cellulite. A thigh/buttock lift may include these areas:

• Buttocks that may be low, flat, or shaped unevenly
• Groin that may sag into the inner thigh
• Thigh, including the inner, outer, or posterior thigh

The results of a buttock/thigh lift are visible almost immediately. However, it may take as long as one to two years for the final results to fully develop.
