"Thigh lift" is bit of a misnomer. Although, technically, a thigh lift is a surgical procedure that removes skin and fat by excision, most people think of it more broadly as thigh rejuvenation, which includes both surgical (invasive) and nonsurgical (minimally invasive) procedures. This is also a better way to think about and approach the thighs as it highlights several important points. Get in contact with Alamo Plastic Surgery. It is one of the best plastic surgery clinics for Thigh Lift in San Antonio TX. Dr. Albright is one of the best surgeons for thigh lift surgery. Come learn more today.

For one, there is no magic bullet that can produce perfect thighs in all patients! The goal should be more realistic, and based on what cosmetic issues are present. If cellulite is the issue, treatments should be focused on this. If excess skin is present, excision will likely be recommended in some form. If there are just a couple areas of bothersome fat, then liposuction is likely needed. However, for most patients, there are a combination of these issues with varying degrees of severity. The treatment plan should reflect these nuances, and Dr. Albright does just that. He is an expert in thigh lift surgery. He will work with you to come up with an individualized plan that best fits your goals and your body.

Thigh Lift FAQ’s

What is the recovery like after thigh rejuvenation?

Your recovery will depend on what procedures are needed to address your cosmetic concerns. Minimally invasive technologies are relatively well tolerated and can be repeated over time to attempt to improve or maintain your results. Liposuction is very commonly utilized in thigh surgery and requires a bit more time for the procedure and limited activities for about 1 month after the thigh lift surgery. Results will be seen in about 3-5 months. For skin removal surgeries, the recovery is the longest. Dr. Albright will help you decide what works best for you. He is one of the best surgeons for thigh lift surgery and he will assess these risks and will be happy to give you his honest opinion.

Am I healthy enough for a thigh lift?

Most patients are healthy enough to undergo a thigh lift surgery. However, some patients may not be ready for a thigh lift. This is true for patients with a very high body mass index (BMI). A high BMI has been shown to lead to higher wound healing complications, and poor cosmetic outcomes. Patients who use nicotine also have these wound healing issues, and should abstain from nicotine use for 6 weeks prior to and after surgery. Finally, patients who have problems with lymphatic fluid collecting in their legs (lymphedema) or who have evidence of poor blood flow within the legs are not good candidates for these procedures. Dr. Albright and his staff will assess for these issues and try to give you some guidance on what may be appropriate in your situation.

“ Dr. Albright is a skilled and precise surgeon. At my first appointment
Dr. Albright and his staff are extremely skilled and knowledge. Being an RN and knowing details about surgical complications and post op infection risks, I wouldn’t go to any other plastic surgeons in town. He absolutely wants the best results and is willing to take the time needed to achieve that goal. Dr. Albright is realistic about expectations and outcomes and takes the time during procedures to do it right. I highly recommend Dr. Albright without reservations. ”

Breast Augmentation

“ I recently had breast augmentation, and I am so pleased with my results. He spent a great deal of time explaining my options, listening to what I wanted, and providing his opinion. I visited other surgeons in the area and didn’t feel any of the others listened or cared quite like Dr. Albright. Not only do I recommend Dr. Albright, hospital nurses commented to me that he is the best! ”

“ Dr. Albright is a caring professional - he answers all questions thoroughly and takes as much time as necessary. He is an exceptional doctor. Everyone is friendly, caring and shows genuine concern for how the patient is feeling - I felt comfortable the first time I met Dr. Albright and his staff. This continued on every visit. ”
