Thigh Lift (Thighplasty)

What is a Thigh Lift?
A thigh lift, medically known as thighplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and contour the thighs by removing excess skin and fat. This procedure is ideal for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, aging, or skin laxity, resulting in sagging or poorly contoured thighs. By tightening the underlying tissues and eliminating loose skin, a thigh lift enhances the overall appearance and provides a smoother, firmer contour.
Thigh lift in Turkey is a sought-after procedure due to the country’s experienced surgeons, state-of-the-art facilities, and competitive pricing. Patients from around the world choose Turkey for its high-quality care and outstanding results in cosmetic surgery.

How is Thigh Lift Surgery Performed in Turkey?

1. Step
Consultation
The process begins with a consultation where the surgeon evaluates the patient’s thigh area and discusses their goals. A personalized surgical plan is created, selecting the most suitable technique based on the patient’s needs.

2. Step
Anesthesia
Thigh lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort and safety. This allows the surgeon to work with precision while minimizing any discomfort during the procedure.

3. Step
Reshaping
The surgeon makes incisions in areas such as the groin, inner thigh, or outer thigh, depending on the chosen technique. Liposuction may be used to remove excess fat, and loose skin is tightened to create a firmer and smoother contour.

4. Step
Closing
Once the reshaping is complete, the incisions are carefully closed with sutures to minimize scarring. Compression garments are applied to support the healing process, reduce swelling, and help the skin adhere to the new contours.

5. Step
Post-Operative
Patients are provided with detailed aftercare instructions and are closely monitored during recovery. Most can resume light activities within a few weeks, with full results visible as swelling subsides over the following months.

What Our Patients Say

1 month ago, I had tummy tuck, breast lift (and implants were placed) + liposuction at Gökhan teacher. I was very, very pleased with the result. I was very anxious especially about the breasts, but my teacher did a really excellent job, both in shape and size, it was exactly what I wanted and even more beautiful than before birth. The interest of my teacher and nurses is very good both before and after surgery.
