Knowing All Aspects of Thigh Lift Surgery for Better Recovery

After five days to one week from thighplasty operation, you may be able to work again. This means that you can already walk and move around very well, as tenderness rapidly resolves. In two to three weeks you may start with mild exercise routine, and in six to eight weeks post-surgery you may be able to return to full exercises. Barring any major complications, this is how a typical recovery timeline for thighplasty or thigh lift procedure sounds like.

Due to efficiency seen in plastic surgery procedures nowadays, it is advisable for patients to widen their knowledge and preparations to other aspects of their planned surgery, such as the specific techniques and incisions to be undertaken, surgical risks, and recovery period involved.
