This will be my third surgery with Dr. Hubbard who has been incredible thus far. My body lift is flawless to say the least. Time to wrap up with the inner thigh lift in three weeks. For my full journey, view my body lift review which is very detailed. My procedure for my thigh lift will take approximately 5.5 hours including a few minor items I added to go with it.

I had a thigh lift Sept 22, this year. And on recovery time..its been 2 weeks now..I had lost 105 pounds 8 years ago and decided to finally do it. I also had ab arm lift done together ..Its been really hard. But I am so glad I finally did it. I also had a tummy tuck 6 years ago.. hope you are doing well.

That sounds tough but I'm sure very rewarding. I'm doing great and loving the results so far!!

Im doing really good, its been almost 5 weeks now.. I had a small opening on both thighs but are now healed and closed. I also have openings of both under my arms and are slow healing. I am not 100 percent satisfied with the brachioplasty.. I have excess skin around my back bra area that looks ugly..almos like a small boob.. lol!! But I dont regret doing it , anyways. So how are you doing? Everything ok?
November 2, 2016
I'm glad to hear things are going well. Take it form experience - a brachioplasty is never perfect. You just have to learn to love the imperfections and remember where you started. I'm doing really well, thank you. Hit four weeks today!

Yes.. you are so right..I admire you for everything you have done to your body knowing the pain cz I hv been there.. I dnt plan to do anything more , even though I do need a butt and boob lift, but I am happy the way I am now and will learn to accept my imperfections and move on..I started to get back to my excersise routine today, ofcourse at a slower version.. but can't wait till I get back to tone my arms and legs. I saw all your pics and you have been through alot.. but you are looking great.

Completely understand. I'm so ready to start working out. Thank you for the positive feedback. I am very happy and so glad to be done with this journey but don't regret even a second of it.

Would love to know how the healing went with the thigh lift (and full body lift). These are both procedures I'm considering and yours seems to have gone really well! Thanks for sharing your story!

Hello, how are you doing? Did you have the tigh lift surgery already? If so what was it like?
October 17, 2016
Hi. I'm great! I had surgery 10/5 and already at least 70% back to normal. SO happy.
October 17, 2016
Wow that's awesome! I'm thinking about having thigh lift surgery and im wondering what to expect. Can you please post some more pictures.
October 20, 2016
Posted a bunch. Did you see them? Happy to answer any questions I can. Surgery was SO much easier than I expected.

Hi, looking good, how are your incisions? Can you post pics of them, really debating if I should get a thigh lift. Thanks a bunch in advance
October 20, 2016
Hi! I posted pictures of them yesterday. Go to my next post and you'll see them! Incisions are doing great!

I had a tummy tuck in February with muscle repair, now considering having a thigh lift in May. But it seems a number of people say the thigh lift is more painful and a harder/longer recovery. It would be great if you could give some insight as to how it compared to your body lift and if you thought it was more painful and/or a harder recovery?
It would also be good to see pictures of your thigh scars and where they are located/visible if you were wearing shorts?

Thigh lift was much easier than body lift. No question. I only used pain meds for a couple days. The exparel injection makes a HUGE difference!
