My experience has been great! The front desk ladies were so kind. The Dr who worked on me was full of knowledge and kept me comfortable during my procedure. My laser results turned out beautiful! i will be returning for future care!
I love, love, love Renuance Cosmetic Surgery. Their staff is the best! They are ALL Super friendly, professional, knowledgeable and caring. Dr.Hill is an amazing plastic surgeon who did my lipo 360 and breast implants. I had botox done from Miss Chelsea whom is super friendly. Miss Vinny (Senior patient care coordinator), took care of my information and helped me with my payment plan process. They are very professional and informative on all questions and doubts I had. Miss Maggie who works in front desk always greats you with a positive energy that alleviates your mind and helps you ease your anxiety or nervousness. They perform many different procedures and I trust them 100%. Also, I'm planning to get more things done, so my journey with Renuance is far from over!!! 😄
Dr. E is awesome. He is professional yet personal and very patient. He listens to your concerns and makes sure you are comfortable. I have had other consultations leaving feeling judged or unheard. Not here. The whole staff are amazing.
Dr. Ford was very personable, and responsive to all my questions. All staff were friendly and polite, helping me feel at ease with this facility and the staff that will be caring for me during my procedure. Dr. Ford was very professional, and Vinny was so nice!
I can’t rave enough about Renuance. The entire staff has been absolutely incredible! Everyone is extremely informative and welcoming. Every time I’m there it feels like catching up with family and friends. Dr. Hill performed my surgery and I’m still just blown away with the work he did. Being a mom of three and breastfeeding all of them, I was left with very little breast tissue, sagging, and a lot of loose skin. With my job as a personal trainer and having a history of competing in bodybuilding competitions, it really had an impact on not only my job, but my day to day, like what I could even wear. The difference is day and night. I feel so great about my body now. While I knew I really wanted a breast augmentation, I didn’t realize how much it was affecting my confidence. I can’t thank Dr. Hill enough.
I had a list of questions prepared and Dr. Ford took her time to answer everything in detail and with honesty. I felt very comfortable with her and Vinny. Very knowledgeable and very friendly.
From the staff to the whole experience. Everyone made me feel safe, and comfortable. The patient care was just top notch.
Chelsea was very professional and accommodating. She was very informed while walking me through the whole process
"Hands down Dr. Hill is one of the best out there! Vinny is also just simply amazing! Both truly care and absolutely patient-centric!"
Dr. Debbie is the best. She gave great advice, listened to my concerns and let me know what would look best.

Thigh Lift FAQs

What is the difference between a thigh lift and liposuction?

Thigh lifts remove excess skin and fat through surgical excision, making them ideal for patients with poor skin elasticity. Liposuction removes fat but doesn’t address loose skin. If you have good skin elasticity with excess fat, liposuction alone may be sufficient. When skin elasticity is poor, a thigh lift with or without liposuction provides better results.

How long does it take to see results?

You’ll notice immediate improvement in your thigh contours after surgery, though initial swelling will mask some results. Most swelling subsides within 3-5 weeks. Final results are visible around 3-6 months when all swelling has resolved and tissues have fully healed.

Does thigh lift surgery hurt?

Most patients experience moderate discomfort for the first week, which is well-controlled with prescribed pain medications. Ice application and elevation help reduce swelling and discomfort. Most patients are surprised that recovery is more comfortable than anticipated.

How many procedures will I need?

Most patients achieve their desired results with a single thigh lift procedure. Occasionally, minor touch-ups may be desired after complete healing.

What is recovery like after thigh lift surgery?

You’ll wear compression garments for 4-6 weeks to support healing and optimize results. Most patients return to light activities within 2-3 weeks and full activities including exercise by 6-8 weeks. You may resume driving and walking for exercise after 2-3 weeks when these activities don’t cause pain.

What makes thigh lift results different from non-surgical treatments?

Thigh lift surgery provides permanent removal of excess skin that cannot be achieved through non-surgical methods. While treatments like radiofrequency can provide modest skin tightening, only surgery can address significant skin laxity and create dramatic contour improvements.

What is the best age for thigh lift surgery?

Thigh lift surgery can benefit adults of any age who have excess skin and realistic expectations. The key factors are having stable weight, good overall health, and adequate skin laxity to justify surgical intervention. Most patients are in their 30s-60s.

Can thigh lift be combined with other procedures?

Thigh lifts are typically performed on their own, as every patient’s needs and anatomy are unique. In selected cases, other procedures may be performed at the same time, depending on the individual patient and their surgical plan.

How long do thigh lift results last?

Thigh lift results are considered permanent, as the excess skin that’s removed will not return. However, your body continues to age naturally, and significant weight fluctuations can affect results. Maintaining stable weight and healthy lifestyle habits preserves your results for many years.

Is thigh lift surgery safe?

Yes, when performed by experienced plastic surgeons in accredited facilities, thigh lift surgery has a strong safety record. Our QUAD A-accredited surgery center maintains hospital-level safety standards, and our experienced surgeons take every precaution to minimize risks and ensure optimal outcomes.
