For all thigh lifts, photos are taken during the consultation for documentation purposes. On the one hand, this serves to plan the operation and, on the other, for comparison. These operations often involve body-shape changing procedures. This change is clearly visible immediately after the operation, but will “work” somewhat within the first 6 months. Patients go through an emotional time here. Initially, there is often some doubt about the purpose and success of the operation, which is often accompanied by a degree of uncertainty. Due to the initial swelling and possible hematoma formation (bruising), the result does not yet meet expectations.
As soon as the initial swelling is reduced and the hematomas fade, the result can be seen more clearly. Patients describe this phase as “relief”. As the goal is foreseeable, the start, i.e. the original state before the operation, is often forgotten. As the last swelling subsides approx. 2-3 months after the operation, the actual “joy” about the result of the operation begins. However, this joy is then permanent and is reinforced by the direct comparison of the “before” pictures.
Here you will find a small selection of photos of patients of different age groups and different anatomical variations.
Patients who opt for a thigh lift often also suffer from increased fatty tissue and loss of elasticity in the connective tissue. Various options can be chosen to sustainably tighten the tissue. The classic surgical thigh lift is performed by removing skin and tissue. To achieve scar-saving results, a combination of liposuction and body tightening can be performed.
In the photos above you can see the results approximately 6-12 months after the treatment. The targeted combination of liposuction and Bodytite can reduce volume and tighten and shape tissue. The result is a natural, not artificial, overall appearance. Of course, every anatomy is unique, but you may find yourself in one or two pictures.
But what will you look like shortly after the operation? Immediately after the operation, the treated areas will swell slightly. Occasionally there are hematomas (bruising) which can last for about 10-14 days.
