Thank you for your question regarding how much a thigh reduction costs. The cost of plastic surgery procedures varies. Even the cost of the thigh lift procedures varies from city to city. The factors that determine the cost of a procedure include your location, the experience of your plastic surgeon (the more experienced plastic surgeons will charge more), whether your surgeon is a plastic surgeon, general surgeon, cosmetic surgeon, OBGYN, Dermatologist, etc., the length of the procedure, whether the procedure is covered by insurance, and where the procedure is being performed, either in a surgery centre or a hospital. All these are factors to consider. I think to go to 3 or 4 qualified board-certified plastic surgeons in your neighbourhood and determine the range of prices. Do not necessarily go for the lowest price. You may spend way more on revisions by going to an inexperienced plastic surgeon. It's better to pay as much as possible for an experienced plastic surgeon.
Regarding what a thigh lift involves, it is performed under general anaesthesia and takes approximately 3-4 hours to complete. Thigh liposuction is performed during a thigh lift, thigh reduction or thighplasty. Either an incision is made in the groin, or an incision is made from the groin to the knee. Sometimes a crescent area of skin is removed from the upper inner thigh. This is called a crescent thigh lift or a mini thigh lift. In addition, a thigh lift removes an elliptical amount of skin and fat from the thigh. Plan to give yourself at least 2-3 weeks of recovery. Plan to wear your compression garment for six weeks. I hope this helps to answer your question about thigh lifts and pricing.

                  Thigh
reduction surgery prices vary widely and depend upon several variables .  It’s important to make sure the fee
quote includes the surgeon’s fee, facility fee, anesthesia charges and pre and
post-operative care.  Each of these
components may vary widely depending upon the surgeons practice.

                  Generally
surgeons who operate in dedicated outpatient cosmetic surgery centers are able
to offer lower facility fees than those who operate in hospitals.  The surgeon’s fee can vary depending on
regional differences and levels of local competition.  Anesthesia fees can vary and this may be related to the use
of a nurse anesthetist verses a physician anesthesiologist. 



                  When
all of these variables are considered, fees in the mid-western United States
vary between $5,000 and $8,000. 
It’s important to remember that although price is an important component
of your decision it’s not the only consideration.  Make sure that your surgeon is a board certified plastic
surgeon with appropriate qualifications and experience.

It's about $7500 to $12000 in Toronto. The procedure can target the inner upper thighs, and/or the outer thighs. It usually involves tightening up loose skin and removing excess fat. Liposuction can be performed at the same time for enhanced contouring.
