Body and Thigh Lift
Conveniently located to serve the Coachella Valley.
Whether you have developed loose, sagging skin due to weight loss or the natural aging process, a body and thigh lift can help you regain a firm, sculpted figure. Eko Plastic Surgery offers this and other body sculpting procedures to the residents of Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, CA, and surrounding areas.
What Is a Body And Thigh Lift?
Body and thigh lifts are comprehensive body sculpting techniques that eliminate stubborn fat and excess skin to enhance the contours of the body. A thigh lift improves the appearance of the inner and outer thighs by reducing excess skin and fat to make the skin on the upper leg smoother and make the leg more contoured. A body lift addresses multiple body parts to produce more dramatic results.
These techniques can be performed as an inner thigh lift, outer thigh lift, upper body lift, or lower body lift. Patients may sometimes want to combine liposuction with their body or thigh lift procedure to achieve more significant results.
Good Candidates for Body & Thigh Lift Surgery
If you’ve lost a significant amount of weight or notice that the skin on your thighs is loose and lacks firmness, you might be a good candidate for our thigh lift surgery in Palm Desert. Ideal candidates are at or near their target weight and in good general health. They should also have realistic goals and be prepared for downtime following surgery.
This surgery is especially beneficial for people who want body contouring after weight loss, whether through lifestyle changes or bariatric surgery. If you have difficulty with skin irritation or discomfort from excess skin, or your thighs appear disproportionate to the rest of your body, speaking with an experienced plastic surgeon for thigh lift in Palm Desert, like Dr. Eko, can help determine how this procedure can help you achieve your goals.
What Is the Body and Thigh Procedure Like?
Generally, the body and thigh lift procedure at our Palm Desert practice is performed under general anesthesia and on an outpatient basis. During the procedure, the incisions that Dr. Eko makes will depend on the type of body lift procedure you are receiving and the extent of surgery necessary to produce your desired results.
In all cases, we strive to use incisions as small and discreet as possible to reduce the recovery period and minimize scarring. Given that a body lift often addresses multiple areas in a single treatment, the procedure can take several hours to perform.
What Kind of Results Can I Expect From a Body And Thigh Lift?
The results from your body and thigh lift will be visible immediately, although you may not be able to notice the full results of treatment until swelling and other side effects begin to fade. Although the results from body and thigh lifts are permanent, they will still be susceptible to weight gain and the natural aging process.

Benefits of Thigh Lift Surgery
Our thigh lift surgery in Palm Desert can provide a firmer, leaner look by removing loose skin and small pockets of fat. It enhances the contour of your thighs, improving how they appear in clothing and swimwear.
Patients who want an inner thigh lift in Palm Desert often request practitioners to target the skin between the groin and the knee. Meanwhile, the outer thigh lift procedure can reshape the outer and lateral leg areas, giving a more balanced lower body appearance.
Other benefits include relief from skin chafing, smoother skin texture, and a more youthful leg shape. A thigh lift and excess skin removal surgery can complement overall body contouring after weight loss for more complete results.
How Much Does a Body and Thigh Lift Cost in Palm Desert?
The cost of your body and thigh lift surgery in Palm Desert will vary depending on the treatment plan we develop for you. During your consultation, Dr. Eko will discuss your cosmetic goals and treatment needs to determine the treatment approach that best suits you. For this reason, we will not be able to provide you with the exact cost of your treatment until you have had the chance to come in and discuss your treatment goals with Dr. Eko.

Can I combine a thigh lift with other procedures?

How can I get a thigh gap?
The thigh gap is a highly sought-after cosmetic trait. People with a thigh gap have a small gap between the thighs when the legs are together. For some, a strict diet and exercise can create a thigh gap. Unfortunately, a thigh gap is often difficult to obtain. If you are interested in achieving a thigh gap, you may be able to achieve one with an inner thigh lift at Eko Plastic Surgery.
What is the difference between inner and outer thigh lifts?
Inner and outer thigh lifts are two different approaches to the thigh lift procedure, which can be performed together or individually. An inner thigh lift targets the inside of the leg. It is often ideal for patients who experience discomfort due to their legs rubbing together or those who desire a thigh gap. An outer thigh lift targets the outside of the legs and the lower hips. It is often ideal for patients pursuing a thigh lift treatment to enhance their figure.
What is the difference between an upper and lower body lift?
Upper and lower body lifts are two different approaches to the body lift procedure, which can be performed together or individually. An upper body lift targets the arms, chest, and upper back. A lower body lift targets the abdomen, lower back, thighs, and buttocks. Both procedures eliminate stubborn fat and excess skin to create a more contoured figure.
