Thigh Lift Atlanta

The skin does not always fully conform to the body’s new shape following significant weight loss. The skin may lose elasticity and begin to sag. One of the areas of the body most affected by this problem is the thigh area.

Thanks to thigh lift Atlanta, a highly effective cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess fat and skin from the thighs, a solution is available. Thigh lift Atlanta can dramatically improve the thigh area, as well as enhance the overall appearance of the figure.

After working hard to lose a significant amount of weight, developing a secondary problem such as excess, sagging skin can be very frustrating.

You may be a candidate for thigh lift Atlanta if you have experienced a loss of skin elasticity of the thigh, hip, or buttock areas. You may also desire a thigh lift Atlanta if your skin in the thigh area is saggy, has an orange peel, flabby and/or dimpled appearance. A thigh lift Atlanta may also be indicated if your thigh appearance improves dramatically when you lift the lax skin. If you are self-conscious about your lower body appearance you may also want to look into a thigh lift Atlanta. A thigh lift Atlanta is intended to produce tighter, more attractive thigh and buttock skin with improved contours. It is also intended to decrease irregularities in skin surface.

A thigh lift Atlanta is performed under general anesthesia on an outpatient basis unless otherwise advised by Dr. Davoudi. Wide variations in the design of the incisions to meet clothing or personal desires are possible. Lifting the inner thighs requires only short incisions extending from the anterior part of the thigh/groin crease around to the buttock crease. Lateral or anterior thigh lifts can be performed as separate procedures if desired. The buttocks can be lifted with upper or lower scars. The doctor will show you what specific procedures are available to solve your particular problem.

The patient is placed in a compression garment (similar to a long?line elastic support girdle) at the end of surgery to reduce swelling and assist in the natural shrinking and tightening of the skin. With a smaller thigh lift Atlanta, initial discomfort is usually easily controlled with prescription pain medication. With larger thigh lifts, one or two nights care in a skilled nursing facility or hospital are usually required. This allows for pain injections, intravenous catheters, etc. Bruising and swelling usually subside within a month, strenuous activities are usually possible in 6 weeks and almost all symptoms are gone in 4-6 months.
