How Long Does A Thigh Lift Last?

The thighs are a common problem area for many patients. They can collect extra fat and skin with age as well as weight fluctuations. If a significant amount of extra skin is present, then a thigh lift may be warranted. Since a thigh lift involves incisions that may not be completely hidden, patients want to ensure that undergoing the procedure will yield long lasting results. So, how long does a thigh lift last?

Thigh lift results are known to last several years. If a patient maintains a steady weight and follows their recovery plan, they are likely to see results last for a decade or more. However, no plastic or cosmetic surgery can stop the aging process, only slow it down. Therefore, the skin will continue to age and potentially sag over time. This can be slowed and negated with good skincare practices and by maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Any fat removed should be permanent. While the remaining fat cells can still expand, it is more likely that any gained fat will be put on it places not treated with liposuction. Liposuction is not part of every thigh lift procedure though, so it is important to maintain a stable weight as much as possible.
