Thigh Lift - want to love the thighs/skin I'm in :)

Surgery performed 12/30/2015.

After losing weight, had loose skin I needed to get rid of. Maybe 'wanted' is a better word. When running, I had jiggly bits that felt like "waves" no matter what compression garment/material I used. :)

Last year on 12/26/2014, I had a lower body lift (TT w/muscle repair) and BA w/lift and was hoping it would give me the complete results I was looking for but after a year I could see the thighs were going to need their own work. (I have posted a review on Real Self for those procedures).

I will post some "before" pictures for the thighs in a separate post.

Thanks for sharing, I'm looking into having a thigh lift later in the year; I have also already had a TT with muscle repair and BA w/lift.
I shall be following your posts, eager to know about it all. Hope you're recuperating well, Deb x

I'm looking into a a thigh lift and have very similar looking thighs to your before pics. I would love to see some post surgery pics, but I'm sure you are still swollen. :) I will be following your posts. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

I didn't get a notification for this comment so I am so sorry for not responding sooner!! I will be posting full leg photos at 1 month. I am still swollen now, even at 3 weeks. The swelling is a strange nuisance. Lol.
Have a great weekend!!

Hello! Your thighs look great! Is there any way you can provide your surgeons contact information or at least his or her name? Thanks!

I'm glad you like them, unfortunately, these are the before pics and i have posted no "afters," with the exception of the healing pics. If you work for the surgeon's office and would like for me to post that information, please just say so.

I don't work for the surgeon's office. I'm really interested in getting a thigh lift but I can't find one I like in Michigan. If you would prefer to private message me the information I would appreciate that if not I understand. I just posted on the first post because I'm new to real self.

Ok. I understand. :) yes, I will PM you.

So super excited to see your results! My "before" is very similar to yours. I am deathly afraid of a thigh lift (I have no idea why), even after a tummy tuck and boobs! Please update soon! :)

Strange how the thigh lift scares us. I was very afraid of it, but honestly, the tummy tuck and bobs were worse than this. I know there are plenty of not so great thigh reviews, but so far, my recover has been exceptional. The swelling is pretty rough in the evening. Hopefully I have some decent pics this week. :)

Thanks for sharing! I'm considering to get this surgery! Following your post.
Speed recovery for you!

Here are a few pics from the surgeon's office of the thigh areas.

Hoping for the lift and get inner skin removed. You lnow....the skin where it all spreads apart when you sit? That stuff is what really needs to go.

Be back later to update.
