Thigh Lift
A thigh lift a cosmetic surgery that makes your thighs tighter, more toned, and more defined. The procedure removes unwanted fat, removes excess skin, and tightens the excess skin to give you more contoured thighs. This procedure is common among bariatric and weight loss patients with sagging skin of the thighs following weight loss.
Dr. Griffin will often perform liposuction of the thighs at an initial surgery to remove extra fat prior to performing thigh lift at least 3 months later.

Thigh Lift Surgery
At Griffin Plastic Surgery, a thigh lift is approached with practicality and precision. Dr. Griffin focuses on how the thighs function in real life—how they move, where skin folds, and what patients notice every day. A consultation is an opportunity to discuss whether surgical correction can improve comfort, proportion, and confidence in motion.
Before & After
Take a look at some of Dr. Griffin’s amazing work to see what he can do for you. These are real images of real patients whose lives have been enhanced by our surgeon, Dr. Griffin’s expertise in cosmetic plastic surgery.
Procedure Overview
Unlike procedures aimed solely at visual tightening, a thigh lift addresses excess skin that shifts, rubs, and hangs during normal activity. By removing this tissue and restoring better contour, the procedure helps patients feel less restricted in movement and more at ease in their bodies.
Your thigh lift consultation
Your consultation is centered on how your thighs affect your daily life. Dr. Griffin assesses skin laxity, leg shape, gait, and scar placement while discussing tradeoffs openly. The goal is not perfection, but improvement that makes sense for your anatomy and lifestyle.
What to expect
Surgery is performed under general anesthesia with incisions planned to balance correction and concealment. Recovery involves temporary swelling and limited activity, with gradual return to movement as healing progresses. Patients are guided through each phase with clear expectations and practical recovery advice.

Thigh Lift FAQs
Below are answers to some of the most common questions about thigh lift.
Is a thigh lift about appearance or comfort?
For many patients, it’s both. Improved contour often comes alongside reduced friction and easier movement.
Does everyone need the same type of thigh lift?
No. Incision placement and technique vary based on skin distribution and individual anatomy.
Will walking feel different afterward?
During early recovery, movement is limited, but many patients report improved comfort once healed.
Is this procedure common after weight loss?
Yes. Thigh skin often does not retract fully after significant weight changes.
How long before I can return to normal activity?
Light activity resumes within a few weeks, with gradual progression as healing continues.
