Do your inner thighs rub, chafe, or puddle into your knees, no matter how clean your diet is or how hard you train? After weight loss, pregnancy, or simply due to time and genetics, the delicate skin of the inner thighs can stretch and lose its snap-back. Clothing pulls, shorts ride up, and workouts only make the redundancy more obvious. For many people, the problem extends beyond the upper thigh crease toward the mid‑thigh or even down to the knee, making standard “groin-only” lifts or liposuction alone come up short.
At The Gallery of Cosmetic Surgery, Dr. Craig Jonov offers Medial (Inner) Thigh Lifts and Vertical Thigh Lifts, often combined in one operation, to remove excess skin, refine the contour, and restore a slimmer, smoother inner-thigh line. Your plan is individualized so you get the right lift (or combination of lifts) for your anatomy and goals.
Inner thigh laxity can persist despite healthy habits. A thigh lift reshapes the inner thighs by removing excess skin and refining contours. We offer medial (groin-crease) lifts for upper-thigh laxity and vertical lifts for more extensive redundancy along the thigh—selecting the approach that fits your anatomy and goals.
Tighten and reshape the inner thighs with a medial or vertical thigh lift. We remove excess skin after weight loss, improve chafing and comfort, and position incisions to be as discreet as possible.
