Dr. Debbie Taurek did my Botox procedure. She took her time to make sure of what was needed and to make sure it was done right. she answered all my questions for this time, and for my next procedure. she is very professional and nice.
Chelsea talked to me and answered all my questions. Felt very comfortable through the whole consultation/treatment process results came out amazing
Dr. Filip and his team are highly professional. The facility is also run professionally, it's sanitary, and there was no doubt in my mind about the safety they implement during procedures. Dr. Filip is very knowledgeable and discussed everything I wanted to know before I even mentioned the questions. His attitude is one that encourages and puts minds at ease while also being honest. I appreciate his work and his results are fantastic. I highly recommend Dr. Filip.
Dr. Ford is the best. She is professional, personable, gentle, kind and confident. I had no question in my mind when I first met her that I wanted her to be my surgeon.
Dr. Ford was extremely thorough in explaining the procedure and what to expect. She took the time to make me feel as though I was her only patient of the day. She is kind, compassionate, and an extremely skilled surgeon. From the consultation from follow up care, she has been present and available to answer any questions I had. Her nurse and OR staff were just as wonderful as she was. It was a wonderful experience all the way around.
Dr. Ford is kind, thorough, and honest. She took her time. She prayed with me and the nurse before surgery.
The staff at Renuance are highly qualified and professional. They made me feel safe, confident and important. The single best thing about this experience for me was getting high quality care and service in a very convenient and private feeling setting.
I enjoyed my visit. This was my second time with Chelsea, I don’t feel pressured with her (or anyone at Renuance) which is refreshing. I will now be a regular as I no longer work in SD and found Renuance to be a great fit.
Chelsea explained everything before the treatment, asked if I had any concerns/questions. She was very gentle and I'm pleased with my results!
Dr.Hill clearly informs you of what to expect and make sure you understand. He truly cares about his patients. His entire staff is amazing

Thigh Lift FAQs

What is the difference between a thigh lift and liposuction?

Thigh lifts remove excess skin and fat through surgical excision, making them ideal for patients with poor skin elasticity. Liposuction removes fat but doesn’t address loose skin. If you have good skin elasticity with excess fat, liposuction alone may be sufficient. When skin elasticity is poor, a thigh lift with or without liposuction provides better results.

How long does it take to see results?

You’ll notice immediate improvement in your thigh contours after surgery, though initial swelling will mask some results. Most swelling subsides within 3-5 weeks. Final results are visible around 3-6 months when all swelling has resolved and tissues have fully healed.

Does thigh lift surgery hurt?

Most patients experience moderate discomfort for the first week, which is well-controlled with prescribed pain medications. Ice application and elevation help reduce swelling and discomfort. Most patients are surprised that recovery is more comfortable than anticipated.

How many procedures will I need?

Most patients achieve their desired results with a single thigh lift procedure. Occasionally, minor touch-ups may be desired after complete healing.

What is recovery like after thigh lift surgery?

You’ll wear compression garments for 4-6 weeks to support healing and optimize results. Most patients return to light activities within 2-3 weeks and full activities including exercise by 6-8 weeks. You may resume driving and walking for exercise after 2-3 weeks when these activities don’t cause pain.

What makes thigh lift results different from non-surgical treatments?

Thigh lift surgery provides permanent removal of excess skin that cannot be achieved through non-surgical methods. While treatments like radiofrequency can provide modest skin tightening, only surgery can address significant skin laxity and create dramatic contour improvements.

What is the best age for thigh lift surgery?

Thigh lift surgery can benefit adults of any age who have excess skin and realistic expectations. The key factors are having stable weight, good overall health, and adequate skin laxity to justify surgical intervention. Most patients are in their 30s-60s.

Can thigh lift be combined with other procedures?

Thigh lifts are typically performed on their own, as every patient’s needs and anatomy are unique. In selected cases, other procedures may be performed at the same time, depending on the individual patient and their surgical plan.

How long do thigh lift results last?

Thigh lift results are considered permanent, as the excess skin that’s removed will not return. However, your body continues to age naturally, and significant weight fluctuations can affect results. Maintaining stable weight and healthy lifestyle habits preserves your results for many years.

Is thigh lift surgery safe?

Yes, when performed by experienced plastic surgeons in accredited facilities, thigh lift surgery has a strong safety record. Our QUAD A-accredited surgery center maintains hospital-level safety standards, and our experienced surgeons take every precaution to minimize risks and ensure optimal outcomes.
