Thigh Lift

When people experience excessive weight loss, fatty and sagging skin may occur in the thigh area after pregnancy or with their age.

This situation may cause the patient to be aesthetically discontent and also to have problems while walking. Patients who have these complaints are recommended a thigh lift surgery.

How is thigh lift surgery performed?

In certain cases where the skin quality is good and there is some excessive fat but no sagging skin, liposuction alone is sufficient. However, if there is a sagging skin with excess fat tissue, leg lift surgery is necessary.

If the excess skin is only in the groin area, it can be stretched and tightened up, leaving a limited scar that can be hidden by underwear. However in most cases, the excess skin is in a form of bagging from the groin to the inner thigh. In this case, the thigh lifting procedure is performed by leaving a vertical scar in the leg that extends from the groin all the way through the inner thigh. This scar is hard to be noticed as it is located in the inner thigh. The important criteria here is your skin quality, your general condition and the technique that the doctor will prefer for the best result.

What to expect after a thigh lift surgery?

Thigh lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia in hospital environment and it takes nearly 1-2 hours. Patient can be discharged after spending 1 or 2 nights in the hospital. All the surgical drains are removed 1 day after the surgery and 2 days after patient can have a bath. A special compression corset is prescribed by the surgeon to the patient. It is recommended that patient should prefer wearing cotton clothes. Surgeon utilizes dissolvable sutures so there will be no need of removal. Patient should wait 4 to 6 weeks until he/she can do sports and physical activity. The final result is usually achieved in 6 months.

Kävin nenäleikkauksessa travelmedicin kautta ja kaikki meni hyvin jännityksestä huolimatta. Konsultti auttoi kaikissä kysymyksissä. Dr.Mustafa oli todella ammattitaitoinen. Lopputuloksesta tuli juuri sellainen mitä suunniteltiin. Suosittelen

Chciałbym podziękować Pani Doktor oraz całemu personelowi za profesjonalizm i troskę. Po przeszczepie czułem się w dobrych rękach. Pani Doktor była nie tylko kompetentna, ale także wyjątkowo empatyczna. Personel był miły i pomocny, a Berat, który mnie wspierał, zasługuje na szczególne wyróżnienie. Jego wsparcie w całym procesie było bezcenne. Dziękuję!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! My experience with Berat at TravelMEDI was exceptional from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble any questions I may have had were answered promptly and efficiently. The treatment I received was fantastic from my surgeon to the hospital staff who were outstanding the hospital and Hotel beat anything in the UK. Now home the care is still there with regular contact via Berat. I can’t thank Berat and TravelMEDI enough for their kindness.

Where do I start? I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience. From the beginning until the end, Travelmedi looked after myself, my husband and even our little girl. They made us feel so comfortable and respected.

I came over to Istanbul for a tummy tuck and liposuction after hating how I looked for many years. Having children left me with an overhang. I was introduced to Dr Mustafa Keskin who gave me the results I really wished for. He has given me the body I always wanted!! I am over the moon with how I look right now, it makes me emotional. He was so caring & calm and made me feel like I could trust him straight away. Thank YOU!!!

A special thank you has to go to the man behind the scenes.. Berat. What an absolute angel of a man. He has looked after us amazingly. He has been there to answer all of our questions, some silly questions, but also to help us feel comfortable in a country we have never been to before. We have developed a real friendship with Berat and we think that our experience wouldn’t have been as perfect as it has been, if Berat wasn’t with us. Thank YOU Travelmedi for the most wonderful experience. We will recommend to all of our family & friends. See you again in the future.

I came to travel medi on a recommendation for a breast uplift and augmentation but being only 22 I was extremely nervous and it was my first surgery also. Berat was just amazing I cannot talk higher of him! He made the whole experience every single step as seamless as possible, I was given a whole itinerary and Berat still kept me updated and went through every step I did by my side. Every consultation appointment every time I had to leave the hotel he was there with us, he is so so lovely kind caring and any question or query(not that I had many) he answered almost immediately!

I went to a different surgeon than what I was supposed to but it was the best decision ever made. Professor Mustafa Keskin is top of the game and he was absolutely brilliant and went into so much detail about every single aspect of the surgery.

I was extremely nervous about having surgery but he was amazing. Berat was with me every step of the way till I was being wheeled down for surgery! When I woke up in the morning he was there for my release and accompanied me in the car back to the hotel.

Travel Medi is an amazing company to go with, from start to finish my whole process was completely seamless and stress free. They sort everything out so all you have to do is turn up! Every time we left the hotel for a consultation or blood work our driver was there to take us wait and pick us up. Berat is a credit to Travel Medi he’s an absolute diamond! Even now I am home he is still checking in to make sure I am ok!

From the very first contact made with travelmedi the service was amazing. They were so thorough with all their questions and as a mother allowing her child at 17 years old to under go any surgery never mind surgery in another country I say I had nothing to worry about. They made great contact right up to appointment. From the first greeting at airport until the last drop bk at airport to return was excellent service. And that wasn't the end they still made contact to see how her healing process was and I honestly would recommend them to anyone. The service in turkey was for a breast reduction and from her first appointment until her last the staff were so helpful pleasant and very caring.

Honestly couldn't recommend anyone more. From start to finish I have been kept informed and reassured with everything. Any questions I had Berat answered quickly and made me feel very comfortable going forward with the surgery. I had the surgery less that a week ago and I am already massively happy with the results I have and can't wait till I am fully healed for the finished look! If anyone is unsure of travelling to Turkey or who to go with regarding surgey, TravelMedi is for sure the best!
