Arm and Thigh Lift

What Is an Arm and Thigh Lift?

An arm lift or thigh lift can help restore a more youthful and firmer appearance by removing loose or sagging skin on the legs or upper arms in men and women as a result of aging or weight loss. In some cases Liposuction may also be used to remove excess fat. Patients who have had this procedure enjoy being able to wear clothes and swimwear with much more confidence.

What Does the Treatment Involve?

Although on different parts of the body, the surgical procedure for these 2 areas is very similar in principle.

Arm Lift

Incisions are made carefully and discretely in the natural contours along the inner arm, which may extend from the armpit to the elbow. The excess skin is then carefully removed.

Thigh Lift

Incisions are made carefully and discretely in the natural contours along the inner thigh area, which may extend from the inner knee to the groin. The excess skin is then carefully removed.

What Will Be Covered During the Initial Consultation?

At the initial consultation you will be asked your reasons for wishing to undergo an Arm or Thigh Lift and what your expectations are from the treatment. You will be asked questions about your medical history, whether you are taking any medication or have any drug allergies. Dr. Lambeth will explain the options available to you in order to achieve the best results from your Arm Lift or Thigh Lift surgery.

Dr. Lambeth will discuss details of the procedure, what to expect during your hospital stay and during your recovery period. He will also discuss the potential risks and complications associated with your chosen procedure. As with any surgery, you will have many questions.
Dr. Lambeth will be glad to answer all of your questions during your consultation.
