What Is a Thigh Lift?
Losing weight is an impressive victory for any individual. In some cases, women and men who reach their goal weight occasionally require one more step to finalize their body transformation. Depending on the amount of time you were overweight and how much weight you lost, sagging skin can be a separate difficulty if the skin is not able to adapt to the smaller shape and size of your body. The thighs are specifically an area of trouble for most people. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ross Bunch offers thigh lift surgery (also known as thighplasty) at Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa to remove excess skin on the inner and outer thighs to produce a tighter, more contoured look. This surgery has increased in popularity because it offers natural-looking results for anyone who doesn't want hanging skin on the thighs. For more information on thigh lift surgery in Tuscaloosa, AL, contact our office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Bunch.
How Is a Thigh Lift Performed?
There are two different types of procedures we may perform — a medial thigh lift and a lateral thigh lift. This depends on factors such as your medical history, your specific needs and goals, and your body shape. Either way, general anesthesia will be used.
- Medial thigh lift: A medial thigh lift targets excess skin and fatty tissue on the inner thigh. Incisions are typically made in the groin area and may extend down the inner thigh if there is a significant amount of loose skin to be removed.
- Lateral thigh lift: The lateral thigh lift targets the outer thigh area. Incisions for this procedure begin in the groin and extend around the hip to the buttock fold. While this surgery is more extensive than a medial thigh lift, great care is taken to place incisions in discreet locations, making them easier to conceal.
What Are the Benefits of a Thigh Lift?
A personalized thigh lift surgery offers numerous aesthetic and functional benefits to rejuvenate the appearance of your legs, such as:
- Enhancing your comfort by reducing chafing and rubbing
- Reduction of persistent fat
- Removing unwanted sagging skin
- Amplifying self-worth and confidence
- Long-lasting and dramatic results

Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa Reviews
This surgeon is amazing! Very skilled in what he does, very knowledgeable, and his staff is very helpful and very very professional. He was able to get my procedure covered by my medical insurance, which cut his payment down to very little! But you would think I paid $1 million based on the treatment, and the courtesy and concern that all have demonstrated during my procedure and recovery. I traveled from out of state to have this procedure and honestly, I don’t think I would’ve found a greater experience than I found at Plastic Surgery Of Tuscaloosa and Doctor Bunch! He definitely cares about what you care about!!!
Dr. Bunch has proven his self noteworthy with me. He has the ability to transform lives as I know it! I suffer from a metabolic syndrome and even with diet and exercise I would have not been able to alleviate the excessive fat and skin from my body. I lost 65 pounds and due to my apron developing a rash and no relief of cream, it was deemed medically necessary to have the excess skin and fat removed from my abdomen. Dr. Bunch made me feel comfortable and like family. He ensured he would take care of me and he did. I’m truly thankful for his gift of surgery on my body because he truly transformed and addressed the health issues I was dealing with. I hope this encourages anyone who is searching for relief to try him. You have found the right answer you have been looking for!
Dr. Bunch listens to your concerns and is nice. I’ve experienced speaking with another plastic surgeon and he was rude and made me feel worse about myself, but Dr. Bunch is very professional but also helps you realize what your concerns are and makes me feel better about myself and the results I can achieve. I would definitely refer him as your Plastic Surgeon.
