Smooth Thigh Lift in San Antonio
Weight loss, aging, over-exposure to the sun, and even pregnancy can cause stretched, loose skin and flabby-looking thighs. For women, especially, the thighs are notoriously problematic for storing fat. As a result, many adults just can’t seem to regain youthful skin and tone in spite of an energetic exercise program and a commitment to eating healthy. If that’s you, it’s time for new measures – a Smooth Thigh Lift from Eterna Cosmetic Surgery.
Finally, you can achieve slimmer, smoother, firmer thighs, without the scarring and downtime associated with a surgical thigh lift.
What is a Smooth Thigh Lift?
Forget expensive, invasive surgery. Our Smooth Thigh Lift is a non-surgical alternative that can help restore your thighs to a youthful appearance worthy of any shorts or swimwear. The results will look so natural, no one will guess you had “a procedure” unless you tell them.
With traditional thigh lift surgery, the surgeon has to make significant incisions. Typically, they start at the groin and extend down and toward the back of your thigh or down the “inseam” line to your knee. Then, excess skin and/or fat are removed, underlying tissue is repositioned as needed, and the remaining skin is sutured back together. To perform a Smooth Thigh Lift, Dr. Hernandez makes just 1 or 2 tiny incisions on each thigh.
While full-on surgery may be required if you have severely sagging skin and/or considerable excess fat, the Smooth Thigh Lift procedure is the preferred alternative for our San Antonio patients with mild to moderately loose skin and localized pads of unwanted fat on their thighs. Dr. Hernandez individually tailors each procedure according to each patient’s skin condition and desired goal.
Who is a good candidate?
The Smooth Thigh Lift is safe and effective for all skin types and genders – virtually one who is frustrated with the way their thighs look. The best candidates are also:
- Close to ideal weight
- In good health overall
- Non-smokers
- Have realistic expectations about results
Benefits of a Smooth Thigh Lift
Clearly, the best thing about this procedure is that it can give your self-image a boost by restoring your thighs to a slimmer and trimmer shape with smooth skin. But the procedure itself offers distinct benefits. Whereas surgery requires 7-10 days of post-op downtime for recovery, the Eterna non-surgical option requires just 2 days – the day of your procedure and the day after. The treatment is much faster, with much less discomfort. Plus, it’s more affordable than surgery.
What happens during a Smooth Thigh Lift?
As a cosmetic surgeon who is dedicated to giving her San Antonio patients the best when it comes to skin and body enhancement, Dr. Hernandez uses Renuvion J-Plasma treatment to perform the Smooth Thigh Lift. She first applies a numbing agent, then makes 1 or 2 incisions on the thigh – these incisions are very small, only about 1/10th of an inch. She then inserts the tip of the device that delivers Renuvion’s unique “cool plasma,” which provides superior skin contraction. To remove unwanted fat, she uses VASER Liposuction, inserting the thin cannula into the same puncture incisions. This treatment combination produces smoother, pleasing contours.
To provide the finishing touch, Dr. Hernandez will apply a soothing recovery cream. The Smooth Thigh Lift procedure takes about 1-2 hours.
