Thigh Lift in Fredericksburg, VA
What is a thigh lift?
Losing weight is an impressive accomplishment for any individual. In some cases, women and men who achieve their weight loss goals may require one more thing to complete their body transformation. Depending on how long you were overweight and how much weight you lost, extra skin can be a separate problem if the skin cannot shrink to your body's new shape and size. The thighs are particularly areas of concern for most people. Plastic surgeons Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki offer thigh lift surgery (also called thighplasty) at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg, which trims away loose skin on the inner and outer thighs to create a firmer, more contoured appearance. Thighplasty surgery has risen in popularity since it can give natural-looking results for patients battling sagging skin on the thighs.
How is a Thigh Lift Performed?
During thigh lift surgery, anesthesia is usually used. A surgical incision is made close to the top portion of the thigh in the natural crease where the thigh attaches to the torso. This incision typically continues down to the midpoint of the thigh area. This permits enough room to perform liposuction (if wanted) to eliminate isolated pockets of fat and to trim the excess skin in the upper thigh. The remaining skin will be stretched upward so it is tight and safely secured with sutures. In some instances, an additional incision may be made in the outer thigh area or underneath the buttocks, based on the quantity of skin and tissue removed. Thigh lift surgery at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg corrects the entire thigh area for a tighter, shapelier, more contoured appearance.

Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg Reviews
Procedure changed my life - Dr Heppe transferred body fat into my aging hands. He made sure I wasn’t in any pain, did it expediently and recovery was easy. I’m one hundred percent satisfied. I no longer feel the need to hide my “ugly old hand”. I am now feeling confident and free. Great job Dr. Heppe! Thank you.
My experience with Dr. Aflaki and everyone at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg has been nothing short of amazing! From consultation to post-operative follow-ups, I have been in the very best hands. I am extremely pleased with my healing, recovery and results! Thank you, Dr. Aflaki, for changing my life!
Amazing results - I look better than I ever have in my life - Dr Aflaki is a magician. I am so happy with my results . I was back to work in 2 weeks after TT and arm lift. Zero pain after 2 days. The scars are almost gone. I look better than i ever have in my life!
I had my breast augmentation back in May 2024. I am so happy with Dr. Aflaki and the work that he has done. I am close to 4 months post op and am absolutely in love with them. I was so scared to get it done because of all the horror stories I have heard from peers of them getting this procedure done at other places. But this is something I have always dreamed of and when I came in for my consultation I was greeted so warmly from the front desk ladies and the nurse that attended me that day Nurse Jamie was so reassuring and nice. After meeting the Dr I realized that this is an office I could trust. The healing process was smooth, I understand every case is different. For me I wasn't continuously bleeding as I heard that is something a lot of people go through. If I were to do it again I would.
My wife had a procedure done over a decade ago that she has been very happy with. As well, we really appreciated the demeanor and the way the doctor works, no pressure, no false promises. She just had a procedure done about a week ago that was significantly more invasive than her first one. We drove back to Fredericksburg from New England because of the trust and relationship that had developed with Dr. Batista's practice. She had many options in New England but the relationships were not there and the demeanor of the practices were far more aggressive in pushing products. She has a healing process ahead but I think she will be very pleased with the outcome and I'm sure we will return if she wants any other procedures.
