1. Leg Contouring Consultation
Success in thighplasty begins with a precise evaluation of your leg anatomy and your goals for structural and aesthetic restoration.
Your Consultation in Istanbul:
- Laxity Assessment: Determining if the concern is primarily localized fat, excess skin, or a combination of both.
- Incision Planning: Choosing between an inner thigh lift (incision hidden in the groin) or a vertical lift based on the extent of the sagging.
- Proportional Balance: Ensuring the new thigh contours complement your hips, buttocks, and lower legs for a harmonious silhouette.
| Target Area | Sign | Surgical Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Inner Thigh | Mild Sagging | Groin (Crescent) Lift |
| Full Thigh | Advanced Sagging | Vertical Thigh Lift |
| Outer Thigh | ‘Saddlebags’ | Lateral Thigh Lift |
2. Surgical Excellence
Our board-certified surgeons utilize meticulous techniques to remove excess tissue while managing incisions for the most discreet possible outcome.
Modern Techniques:
- Tissue Excision: Removing the sagging skin that no longer retracts due to loss of elasticity or significant weight loss.
- Combined Liposuction: Often utilizing VASER technology to remove localized fat and further refine the leg’s underlying muscle profile.
- Structural Tightening: Strengthening the underlying supportive fascia to ensure long-lasting, firm results.
The priority is a smooth, toned leg profile that allows for comfortable movement and confidence in any attire.
3. Dedicated Recovery Support
Post-operative care for a thigh lift focuses on managing swelling and ensuring the incisions heal beautifully while maintaining your mobility.
Recovery Milestones:
- Hospital Support: You’ll spend 1โ2 nights in our JCI-accredited hospital under professional medical care to manage early healing.
- Compression Therapy: Specialized leg garments are provided to minimize swelling and support the new contours for the first 6 weeks.
- Activity Progression: Gentle walking is encouraged early, while strenuous lower-body exercise is typically resumed after 6 weeks.
BB Global Health handles all your medications, recovery garments, and follow-up clinical checks in Istanbul.
4. Toned, Lasting Results
