I am totally blown away by Dr. Sistare's talent as a young cosmetic surgeon. He's definitely ahead of the curve as it relates to new technology in cosmetic surgery. Dr. Sistare is a gamechanger. His attention to detail, and precision are unmatched. He took the time to understand my goals and delivered results that far exceeded my expectations. His artistic eye and skills for balance and symmetry are truly impressive. I feel like a more confident and refreshed version of myself. His staff are so friendly, they know you by name after the first visit. Concierge cosmetic surgery, treatment and results without the concierge prices. And he's charming to boot!

After going on several consultations for a breast implant removal procedure with a breast lift, I was sure Dr. Sistare was going to be the doctor I would choose. He listened carefully to what I wanted and explained step by step how and what to expect from the procedure. He took his time to answer ALL of my questions. I didn’t feel persuaded to change my mind about what I wanted. He listened! I have my procedure scheduled so I’m looking forward to my results.
I do have a friend that already used Dr. Sistare and she’s EXTREMELY happy with her results.

After years of dealing with my eyelids impacting my vision, I finally decided to move forward with a procedure to address it and I’m so glad I chose Dr. Sistare. From the first appointment, he was thoughtful, clear, and attentive. He took the time to explain everything, answer my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the process.

The procedure itself was awake, smooth and surprisingly easy. I’m very grateful for Dr. Sistare’s expertise and care, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others considering similar care! He has great bedside manner, and also gives you his personal number to help answer any questions.

Dr. Michael Sistare did surgery for my neck & face and I was very pleased with his expertise during my surgery. He called me later that night after the surgery to check up on me. That was very impressive. The post-opt experience was very good. He answered all my questions and was very patient, caring and kind.
A week after my surgery, my face and neck looked significantly better. It boosted my confidence and brought me great joy.
I am ecstatic and pleased by how I now look in the mirror.
Good job!

More about Thigh Lifts

A thigh lift, or thighplasty, is a surgical procedure that enhances the appearance of the thighs by:

  • Removing excess skin and fat.
  • Tightening and smoothing the remaining tissue.
  • Improving the overall contour and texture of the skin.

This procedure is ideal for individuals who want to address sagging thighs due to aging, genetics, or significant weight loss. A thigh lift offers numerous physical and emotional benefits, including:

  • A more toned and sculpted appearance in the thighs.
  • Improved skin texture and firmness.
  • Increased confidence in wearing shorts, dresses, and swimwear.
  • Enhanced proportions and overall body contour.

Dr. Sistare offers a few types of thigh lift procedures to address different areas and levels of correction:

  • Inner Thigh Lift (Medial Thigh Lift) - Focuses on the inner thighs, from the groin to the knee. Ideal for individuals with sagging or loose skin in this specific area.
  • Outer Thigh Lift (Lateral Thigh Lift) - Targets the outer thighs and may include recontouring of the buttocks. Commonly performed as part of a full body lift for comprehensive lower-body rejuvenation.

In some cases, liposuction may be incorporated to remove stubborn fat and enhance the overall results.

What to Expect During and After Thigh Lift Surgery

Consultation and Planning

Your journey begins with a detailed consultation at Palm Beach Cosmetic Surgery. During this appointment, Dr. Sistare will:

  • Discuss your goals and expectations.
  • Perform a physical evaluation to determine the best surgical approach.
  • Explain the procedure, recovery process, and potential risks.

The Surgical Procedure

Thigh lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2-4 hours, depending on the extent of the procedure. Key steps include:

  • Incision Placement: Incisions are made in discreet locations, such as the groin or along the inner thigh, to minimize visible scarring.
  • Fat Removal: Liposuction may be used to remove excess fat and ensure smooth contours.
  • Skin Tightening: Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is tightened for a firmer appearance.

The incisions are then closed with sutures, and a compression garment is applied to support healing.

Recovery and Healing

After surgery, you can expect:

  • Swelling and Bruising: These are normal and will gradually subside over the first few weeks.
  • Mild Discomfort: Manageable with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medications.
  • Compression Garments: Worn to reduce swelling and support the treated areas.

Most patients are encouraged to walk around within the first day or two to promote circulation and prevent blood clots. The typical recovery timeline looks like this:

  • 1 to 2 Weeks Post-Op: Return to light activities and work.
  • 4 to 6 Weeks Post-Op: Resume more strenuous activities and exercise.
  • 3 to 6 Months Post-Op: Final results become visible as swelling subsides and the tissues settle.

While thigh lift surgery is generally safe, it’s important to understand potential risks, which include:

  • Infection or poor wound healing.
  • Scarring, which fades over time but is permanent.
  • Fluid accumulation (seroma).
  • Minor contour irregularities.

Dr. Sistare will thoroughly discuss these risks during your consultation and provide guidance to minimize complications.

Maintaining Your Results

The results of a thigh lift can be long-lasting when paired with a healthy lifestyle. To maintain your new look:

  • Follow a balanced diet and exercise routine.
  • Avoid significant weight fluctuations.
  • Protect your skin from excessive sun exposure to minimize scarring.

Most patients enjoy their enhanced thigh contours for many years, with continued confidence in their appearance.

Thigh Lift FAQs

Choose a skilled cosmetic surgeon with extensive experience in body contouring procedures. Review patient testimonials and ask about their credentials and training to ensure expertise.
Liposuction is not automatically included but can be added to remove stubborn fat and enhance the results.

Most patients return to work within 1 to 2 weeks and resume full activities after 4 to 6 weeks.
You’ll notice an immediate improvement, but final results develop over 3 to 6 months as swelling subsides.
