What is a Thigh lift?

Thigh lift is a surgery that reshapes the inner thighs reducing excess skin and subcutaneous fat. Very often thigh lift is combined with liposuction in order to get slimmer and well proportioned thighs, and smooth skin.

Why would I have a thigh lift?

Excess skin

Losing weight is a good thing and gives a better muscle tone. However it doesn’t help to remove excess flabby skin from the inside of the thighs. If the skin of your thighs has lost elasticity, Dr. Borra will recommend the thigh  lift in order to obtain what you want.

Difficulty dressing

The folds of excess thigh skin is a problem for clothing because you can see them under clothes.

Slimming

In case of important weight loss, the skin of the thighs tends to relax. Dr. Borra can skillfully combine this surgery to a complete remodeling of the body: for example, the cutouts of thigh lift can match the abdominoplasty ones, minimizing scars.

Embarrassment in swimming costume

Let’s not deny it: you just don’t want to show your legs in a swimming costume. Dr. Borra can solve your problem: take advantage of his availability and discuss with him on how to solve your problem.

What would you like to obtain with a thigh lift?

You’ve tried to work out in the gym, you’ve lost weight by dieting or even had a gastric banding. Your skin, however, is not elastic enough to follow your body slimming. Dr. Borra knows how to remove the excess skin giving you what you hoped for.

What can you expect from your first consultation:

If you are considering this procedure, come to Dr. Borra. The consultation may last an hour. In your consultation, Dr. Borra will:
