Introduction
There are several reasons the skin along our inner thighs could sag or lose its firmness, but our medial thigh lift can address this by tightening that loose skin and reshaping your inner thighs for a smoother, firmer look.
At his Purchase, NY practice, Dr. Abraham Pathak, double board-certified by the American Board of Surgery (ABS) and the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), offers tailored medial thigh lift procedures designed to create natural results for his Purchase, Westchester County, Greenwich, New York, and the greater Tri-State area patients.
Our medial thigh lift is a surgical procedure we offer clients that removes excess skin and tightens the inner thigh tissue. Over time, skin tends to lose elasticity due to aging, weight fluctuations, or genetics.
This procedure restores a toned, youthful appearance by lifting and reshaping the area.
The ideal candidate for our medial thigh lift is someone in relatively good health, able to maintain a stable weight, and bothered by loose, sagging skin on the inner thighs. Candidates typically:
If sagging skin is affecting your confidence or causing discomfort, a medial thigh lift may help restore smooth, toned contours that feel natural and proportional.
A medial thigh lift can have a noticeable impact on both appearance and comfort:
Your journey to smoother, firmer thighs in New York and the Tri-State area begins with a personal consultation with Dr. Abraham Pathak in Purchase, NY.
Dr. Pathak will take time to learn about your goals, discuss your concerns, and evaluate your inner thigh area to determine if a medial thigh lift is the best option for you. He will want to review your medical history, assess your skin’s elasticity, and discuss the kind of results you can realistically expect.
If you decide to move forward, his team will help you schedule your procedure, provide detailed pre-operative instructions, and prepare you for every step of the process.
Our medial thigh lift is performed under general anesthesia to ensure complete comfort.
Dr. Pathak will begin by making carefully placed incisions along the groin crease or inner thigh. In many cases—particularly for patients who require more extensive reshaping or have significant laxity—he may extend the incision longitudinally down the inner thigh. This advanced technique allows him to address the entire leg and thigh region more comprehensively, ensuring smoother, more balanced contouring along the full length of the thigh.
Once the incision pattern is customized to your anatomy, Dr. Pathak will remove excess skin, tighten the underlying tissue, and, if needed, use liposuction to refine the contour. After reshaping the area, the incisions are meticulously closed to promote the best possible healing.
Following surgery, you’ll spend time in a monitored recovery area as the anesthesia wears off. Most patients return home the same day, wearing a compression garment and following detailed aftercare instructions. You’ll need someone to drive you home and stay with you the first night to assist with comfort and mobility.
Your Guide to Post-Medial Thigh Lift Care
During the first few days after surgery, you can expect mild swelling, bruising, and a tight sensation in the thighs. Dr. Pathak will provide pain medication and specific instructions to help manage any discomfort.
Patients who undergo a longitudinal incision extension may notice a slightly longer healing area along the inner thigh, but the benefit is a more complete lift and smoother contour throughout the entire thigh. With proper care, healing progresses predictably and steadily.
Most patients take one to two weeks off from work or daily activities, depending on comfort. Light walking is encouraged early to promote circulation, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for at least four to six weeks.
Dr. Pathak and his team will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress, remove sutures as needed, and ensure your recovery is progressing smoothly. With consistent aftercare, most patients see steady improvement each week and feel confident returning to normal activities within a month.
