For many, sagging skin, stretch marks or unwanted fat on the thighs can stand in the way of the self-confidence they long for. This can manifest itself in the fact that you don't want to wear shorts or short dresses in the summer, but it can also affect your entire posture and how you feel about your body. At Estetikcentrum in Malmö we can offer thigh lift, which is a surgical procedure that can give the legs a firmer shape and a slimmer appearance.
How thigh lift works
Simply explained, it can be said that thigh lift is a surgical treatment designed to tighten the skin and shape the legs. This is achieved by removing excess skin and fatty tissue from the legs. The method has become very popular and appreciated, especially by people who have changed a lot in weight in recent years, or for those who have gained a lot of loose skin.
Thigh augmentation is suitable for those who experience:
- Loose skin that chafes or causes discomfort with movement
- Disproportionately large thighs in relation to the rest of the body
- Stretch marks or skin folds around the thighs and knees
For many, the procedure is not just aesthetic, but it is just as much about comfort and being able to move more freely.
Thigh lift results – what you can expect
We understand that the end result is what you crave the most, but it is important to have realistic expectations. Recovery can feel long and your legs may be sore and swollen for the first week. However, this usually subsides relatively quickly, especially with the right aftercare.
So, what results can you expect? We usually say that a thigh lift gives your thighs a firmer and smoother appearance overall, with loose skin and fatty tissue removed to create a more balanced body shape. The scars are placed discreetly on the inner thighs to reduce their visibility, but can also be treated with microneedling or laser once they have fully healed. This way, you can reduce the visibility of the scars even further.
Use before and after pictures to help
Many patients find it difficult to imagine the end result and this is something we fully understand. Every body is different and the results may vary depending on whether we only perform thigh lift, or thigh lift in combination with liposuction. That's why we are more than happy to show before and after pictures of patients who have undergone thigh lift here at Estetikcentrum. With clear and accurate pictures, it will be easier for you to get an idea of what the result may look like.
Meet our surgeons at your consultation
The best way for you to get a visual picture of what results thigh lift can give is by meeting our surgeons here at the clinic. At the consultation you have the opportunity to have your questions answered, while you can look at pictures and the surgeon gets to know more about your needs and wishes. You also talk more about how the procedure itself will go and what is important to think about before, during and after your surgery.
