Thigh Lift Surgery, Thighplasty, Medial Thigh Lift and Upper Thigh Lift all describe the same surgical procedure that removes loose and excess skin on the upper inner thighs.
The upper inner thighs may develop very loose skin that hangs down in folds if:
Upper Thigh Lift surgery can reshape your upper thighs and leave you with tighter and smoother skin as well as better-proportioned thighs.
In some patients, there can also be bulges of excess fat that hang down or rub together causing chaffing and discomfort on walking or running. If there is such excess fat present, the Thigh Lift may need to include Liposuction.
